Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
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.
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.
jimmymise The people that say this movie is "sensational" are obviously connected with it somehow. Or they should have their IMDb review privileges suspended. That being said, the movie isn't all that bad, especially for those of us that crave any new World War II movies we can get our hands on. Most of the problems are technical. It looks like much of the film went straight from the video camera to the final cut without any processing in between. It needed a much better cinematographer.Many of the special effects were a little rough including some mortar hits or mines or something that looked like an air cannon or fire extinguisher shooting up out of the ground.The other comments about the movie needing a better military adviser are spot on. Some of the tactics in the movie are not seen in any other film. Like keeping your men grouped really tightly as you move through the woods and fields. Or standing in a long "civil war-esque" line while you fire your weapons.But I did not regret watching this movie and recommended it to my father who is also a WWII movie buff. You could do far worse.
BasicLogic jumping to German occupied France in broad daylight wearing leather shoes? a high ranking major was a German spy and mole in the British army? most of the fighting scenes were either one-sided or just complete messy arrangements. the french resistant hid in a big house with tunnels without an escape arrangement? and they tried to run away when they were surrounded by the German army, they ran into a mine field right next to their secret hideout, are you kidding me? when they went to the pre-arranged rendezvous in the forest at night, why it's so bright? what and where was the bright light coming from? when the German army showed up at night and started the shooting, sometimes it's pitch black but most of the time, the illumination was just so bright, sometimes it's on the left, sometimes it came from the right, and sometimes it's right behind them in the center. then a short fling with a french woman and love making right away? yeah, right, could you just give me another generous break again? 5 or 6 guys of the so-called allies almost eliminated several hundreds of gemans with tanks and plenty of fire power with machine guns....wow, this is indeed a miraculous movie. but since the allies had won the wwii, the winner could do whatever they like and made the loser German force like morons. a typical self-indulgent masturbation that only served to the winning side. the Germans, the japs, the Chinese nationalist party, they were all morons, and the winning parties could rewrite their own histories whatever they preferred.
