User Reviews

Entertaining

I would disagree with the 1* and 2* ratings as far too harsh. I found it rather entertaining. True the poster is misleading and the limited budget quickly stands out but overall I had good time watching it. Not a blockbuster but it could fare rather well on TV. Some criticize the credibility of the plot, but what about the plot of The Dirty Dozen or Kelly's Heroes ! The plots in those classic WW2 movies are about as realistic. Who cares if the story is entertaining ? Considering the budget limitations and accepting the plot I found acting rather fine; save for some French and German accents. Directing and particularly editing could be better. The score is overused and considering the budget a touch of lightness with some show of humor would have improved the overall impression. A bit like in Kelly's Heroes. Globally a nice independent movie.
