    Doesn't Even Deserve One Star
    To be honest I don't know where to begin. My cocker spaniel could have produced and acted better. I love war films and the history of the v2, s. This film has mentally scarred me.

    The special effects are to be honest worse than appalling. Radio control planes, low flying b17, s talking to a German train driver.

    I got about 25 minutes in and that was enough. Why make it at all if its this bad? .

    About as much artistic directing talent as a collection of colour blind hedgehogs in a bag.

    25 minutes of my life I will never get back. Sounds good but don't bother.

    • If you insist on making these things up, can you AT LEAST make them semi-believable?
