Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Matho The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Gary The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.
adamm-18 First off, I'm not a fan of war films. So coming at this independent film with that attitude, the film has a hurdle to get over. And happily it achieves it. I thoroughly enjoyed this film. The films is at its best when focusing on the relationships between the core group. There is real chemistry between the group which is a miracle to achieve on independent films. Best sequence is the ambush sequence in the middle of the film. Tense, exciting and really well filmed. Budgets are something that not all films have an abundance off, but this gets those things right that money can't buy.
GUENOT PHILIPPE A totally rubbish crap film, probably one of the most terrible war movie I have ever seen. It is even injurious to compare this to CROSS OF IRON, even in mind. Brainless film supported by terrible acting and editing. German soldiers are here shown as dumb, whom they were certainly not, action sequences lousy at the most, and this French farmer who speaks french with an American accent !!!! This is not the only war movie never released in french theatres and I understand why...One good sequence although, when the soldier cuts his own toe with a cuttings which doesn't prevent him to run like a rabbit just after. The production design, for such a small budget feature, maybe is rather acceptable, but that's all. The story is so dumb...I won't speak of the ending, sooooo predictable. This kind of war movie makes me puke. Avoid it at all costs !!!!
Eliteskeet While this movie has some notable historical inaccuracies and "dumb enemy syndrome," it is an exciting and action-packed movie that most fans of war films will enjoy.I thought the action sequences and special effects were excellent for a lower budget film, although the music/environmental sounds are often heavy and make the combat dialog hard to hear. The plot is solid enough to be interesting and the film is packed with explosions and gunfire.This film is nowhere near the same tier as Saving Private Ryan or Downfall, but it kept me very entertained and left me surprised at how much I enjoyed it.
Kaptain Kordie I watched ten minutes of this movie then had to leave it.The opening battle was implausible. As another reviewer noted there were groups standing and firing at each other - like a civil war movie more than a WWII one. Senior officer commanding a Platoon level action while wearing his gorget patches in the field. Refers to his subordinate leaders as Company Captains. British troops had Company Commanders who were Majors. US command companies with Captains.Then onto a briefing about the coming mission. The SGT comes to attention like a kid would if playing at soldiers. Servicemen will understand what I mean. Briefing was light on detail and delivered by a senior officer who sounded like a voice over man. Then the British soldiers all salute like recruits with no head dress on.I figured it wasn't going up hill from here so I decided to spend my time on something that didn't make me want to shout at the TV.Might sound picky but these were glaring issue that set the scene for for a poor movie.I love low budget films and will happily make allowances for realism flaws. But the flaws in this weren't due to cost except maybe the fee for an adviser.
