A different way of telling a story
A story that's too fascinating to pass by...
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
But poorly told, in a rather comic-book fashion. Both the allied planning for the post-war recovery of Europe and the nazi planning to escape the debacle and rebuild the Reich in Argentina are worthy of further examination in the cinema. But here we had comic-book heroes with comic-book lines - the token Brit was portrayed as a trouble-making Cockney with a foul mouth and no sense of teamwork. A welcome appearance by Rutger Hauer, alongside Julie Engelbrecht as anti-nazis, raised the level a bit and the idea of Yanks and Ruskies working together in a common cause was well intentioned. But one was left with the impression that this was just another episode of Captain America.
When I watched this movie, it reminded me a lot about the videogame series "Commandos". I think the director must have played these games himself :)Yes, it's not a very realistic movie, but the acting and special effects are ok, the action is fun to watch, the story was interesting enough for me to watch the whole movie, etc.The movie also reminded me of older war movies like: Where Eagles Dare, The Guns Of Navarone, The Dirty Dozen, etc.
This movie is sub-par. It is very poorly acted and everyone looks the same. The screenplay and plotting are over wrought and not the least bit compelling. I cannot say enough bad things about this movie. At the very least it could've had some decent action, but no. It was severely lacking in this department as well. It was flat and dull and excruciating to watch. Watching a heart monitor with a flat-line for 100 minutes would be more entertaining. Whoever was in charge of foisting this to the movie-going world was sorely misguided. If you're going to be bad at least be bad with some excitement. There wasn't a single exciting moment in this movie. AVOID!!!!
Omg!*spoiler alert (almost)* I watched a little bit more than 20 min of this movie. That was not a completely waste of my time, because i gave it 2 stars. (i like 2ww theme) The message is totally clear in this film. Germans are/was idiots. I don't care to explain because i don't want spend more time talking about this stupid movie. I just want to warn everyone else and no more. This is a spoiler. The heroes flies a ("historical"?) glider .... witch has a motor ... and ... explodes.See: if you like 2 world war action movies when people shoot Germans and you don't care much about history. Don't see: if you respect anything.
