Leofwine_draca SPOILS OF WAR is another indie dud set during the Second World War. A small group of American soldiers head into Germany to kidnap a Nazi, but the whole thing amounts to a bunch of characters running around in the woods while the camera shakes a lot in an attempt to hide the non-existent budget. With amateur actors, rubbish direction and a severe lack of plot, this is patience-testing in the extreme, and comes up so short that part of it is padded out with stock footage.

John Quinn If you see this in the video store, walk on by! Horrible movie! Bad acting. Absolutely weird and jarring editing. Commandoes? No! They are just a bunch of inept regular soldiers.The movie uses old WWII footage to build a back story throughout movie as filler! Even spells Hitler wrong on a newspaper article in beginning (spelled as Hilter). They must have gotten a tax credit for passing 85 minutes or something.Ridiculous plot - the amount of phony money shown would not damage a major Allied economy, but might have helped make this movie better if they had spent some of it!After the credits (why I finished the movie, I don't know) you are treated to a Sad Sack-like cartoon (voiced by Mel Blanc of Bugs Bunny fame, which was cool) about keeping secrets so the enemy (in this case, the Nazis and Japanese) will not find out. Do not rent or buy.

Kelvin Ryan This has to be the "Cr*p" (not even going to call it a film!) that you use to judge a films ratings when your getting near the bottom....this is the very bottom!! Man I watched it for free and even then after the first few moments I was looking for the off switch. I'm just so glad I'd not eaten prior to watching otherwise ....well you can guess! The few props used must have been borrowed from some WW2 club which had insisted they not get dirty or damaged....and the uniforms, well looked to me like the wardrobe had hit the local Jumble sales..awful! I don't know any of the actors personally or what work they've been doing previous to this but all I can assume is they were all skint and needed the money (if there was any??)... I am serious now, I really have seen better acting from 10 year olds with spud guns down the woods!!! I have tried so hard to find even the smallest thing about this film that could merit anything near 1 star and all I could come up with was the trees in the landscape, they were the only thing living in this mess. So Best actor go's to the Oak tree behind the cabin and best supporting go's to the pine by the track, well done guys! How you stood for so long while this was going on around you God knows!!

paul david This is one of the most disappointing war drama which I have seen in the last few years. I saw 'Counterfeit' last year which I think was nominated for Oscar 2009; this is not anywhere in the same league as that.Besides all that, the sleeve of the DVD is entirely misleading, talking about Operation Bernhard and Major Falconer involved in a love affair with the young wife of Count Maldorais in the Adriennes Forest.There are NO women in this movie at all and the sole concentration of the movie is on a group of soldiers crossing German lines and doing a lot of shooting, a little bit like cowboy and Indians with the Germans. If it was made on a low budget, the overall production reflects that.this is essentially a movie about a soldiers greed for money when he realises that there is chance for the 'spoils of war' while in the course of doing his duty on a somewhat bizarre mission.The dialogue throughout, although informative, seemed extremely contrived and I felt the acting was below average standard for a movie of this kind, perhaps not a reflection on the actors involved but on the production direction and screenplay.Very little to commend though the real life shots at the beginning and end of the film almost gave the film some meaning.Sorry folks, this just didn't deliver!
