Arggg, It's Fast Forward Bad
6 October 2009
Warning: Spoilers
---SPOILERS--- I DVR'd this from the AMC channel (never watch anything on it unless it's a last resort with all the commercial breaks, but DVRing allows me to fast forward). The thing with watching anything on AMC is they LOAD it up with commercials, and thats a shame because it was about 15 years ago an awesome channel in direct competition with Turner Classic Movies and commercial free, the times change. AMC put 36 minutes of commercials on to this 79 minute movie, ridiculous. Anyway I was slightly encouraged when I saw it was an American International film (meaning bad movie, good cheesy action), but those hopes were dashed when the opening scene promotes a 12 year old Italian kid as the star. The other stars (for me) are all unrecognizable with the exception of one of the guys who gets killed in the beginning (and he's a grade above extra in a regular production). I was willing to go as high as 5 or 6 stars if the ending was "awesome" but it's also a total let down. I mean if your a war film buff like me you'll try to see it, but there is nothing of interest here otherwise. If your a "so bad it's good" fan, you may like it, they use Pershing(?) post WW2 tanks in the film for BOTH the Germans and Americans, talk about not giving a crap! American International does it again, if it doesn't have Vincent Price in it you should best stay away from an AI release! 2 of 10. Make sure it's recorded so you can fast forward... a lot.
