CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Max Spoelstra Great movie if you want something to laugh at. I jumped a way through while my dad was watching it and we had the same consensus right off the bat. At first I thought he was watching a comedy sketch on youtube, but alas, we weren't so lucky. Yes, it is low budget. Yes, it is definitely bad acting. But the thing that got me was the utter ridiculousness of the military strategies. From dodging 50 caliber machine guns to dropping your weapon on a box of money in enemy territory. Apparently if you run half a mile away from soldiers chasing you, its OK to hide behind a log and scream at each other. And if you find yourself a high ranking official taken captive, don't worry! Just tell a convincing backstory and claim you're a double agent. They'll be takin' orders from you in no time. Anyways, yeah, while all the reviews say this "isn't worth wasting your time" and "just skip it", I found that I enjoyed my time watching it, not in the way they were probably going for, but its still good fun!
Arne Aardvark Most of what I would say has been said by other members in their comments.Only thing I would add is the huge oversights in the sets. The barracks high in the Austrian alps in 1940's have metal frame windows.... possibly aluminium. I would imagine that they would have been wood frame back then.In one scene, you can see two large propane tanks in the background. I am betting the barracks set is a summer camp, resort, or roadside motel.In one scene, a barrack has a #2 on the door. In another scene, presumably at a cabin at a distance from the barracks, there is a #3 on the door. Again, indication of a resort or motel.There is also in the cabin scene, what appears to be a steel-insulated door commonly used in residential construction in the modern day... the standard 6-panel design. Would a cabin in the alps have such a thing?Effects were so incredibly weak. Do yourself a favour, skip this one. I don't know what the producers were thinking.
mfbickford Bad acting, bad everything. They must've had 2 dollars to make this movie and everyone in it worked for free. The so called English soldier in the group had an awful fake English accent. Every now and then you could hear his American accent fall in. The German's spoke horrible German. We turned it off after watching for about 20 minutes. Don't even talk about the special effects. Cartoon like fires when bombs went off. During a close quarter gun battle, thousands of shots were fired, but no one is hit. We were surprised that it took twenty minutes for us to realize how bad this movie was. I guess we hoped it would get better and go somewhere.
jasonqprwiegand (This is the forth time I've tried to add a review for this and have dubbed it down on each occasion, please find it in your hearts to finally allow this to be posted as a warning to the masses)The worst film I have ever bought (on holiday no access to internet to review). I cannot believe the overall rating is so high, on further investigation find that of the 27 people who voted 11, yes 11 (close family friends and actual actors in said film no doubt) gave this pile a 10. These people must be found and their IMDb accounts closed. The costume department must of had a frenzied afternoon on ebay getting all the uniforms together and the script seems to have been written by a 10 year old who still plays war using a finger for a gun running around in his back garden making machine gun sounds and flinging his arms out pretending to be an aeroplane. The only credit I can give to the "actors" is that they're obvious internal cringing was very well hidden whilst having to actually deliver that drivel.I feel a better film could of been made by burning $499,800 of the budget, buy a cheap camera for $100 spend the rest on strong lager and film yourself mucking around with some mates for a couple of hours.Regards and don't watch,,,,, you have been warned.
