Storyline

Disgraced World War 2 Army Captain Jack Wosick is given the opportunity for redemption when asked to lead a rag-tag unit of misfits known as the War Pigs on a secretmission to go behind enemy lines to uncover and capture a Nazi developed Super Weapon the V3, a massive artillery canon that would give the Nazis an insurmountable advantage against the Allies. With the help of Captain Hans Picault, a German Anti-Nazi serving with the French Foreign Legion and Colonel AJ Redding, a battle hardened WW1 veteran, Jack must train, lead and earn the respect of his new squad to become a functioning reconnaissance unit.

User Reviews

This movie could have been a 7/10

If you are going to make a serious war movie, why not make things as realistic as possible?

Scenes that are completely unrealistic ruin it. If your intentions are to make an excellent and believable movie about war, find combat veterans who are more than willing to share their time and experience with you. The "reality" of war makes a better movie than what you think will look cool. The message this movie sent was not easy to resonate with and there was very little passion portrayed in the acting. It seemed as if half the cast was in it to "play" war.

I really hope the cast and crew can be humble enough to make these improvements in the future.
