Rita M What a sad disappointing ignorant movie. And Erik Roberts as the amazing Gen. Omar Bradley? Ridiculous. How bad can they represent what the brave Pathfinders did for our country? Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/17/25 Full Review Roy C Wow! How bad is this film? Bloody terrible. Hearing the jingoist speech before the pathfinders jump was the first warning it was awful. Then the dakota pilot radios his base only to be talking to General Bradley. But, the biggest clue to it being truly terrible was the German soldiers uniforms. The officers hat is way too big, they act as though they are afraid to get them dirty. None of the US paras are camoed/blacked. The script is chronically bad with every little speech imposing that the fate of the Western world lay on these four soldiers shoulders. The dakota pilot talks about 'his boys' as though they were his troops. I am 30 minutes in and I can't watch any more.... it is truly, epicly bad! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 08/16/25 Full Review Chris T May be the worst WW II movie of all time. Everyone on patrol casually smoking cigarettes? And someone needed to tell Marc Roberts that it was an "amphibious" invasion, not an "amphibian" invasion -- though an invasion by frogs and toads would have made as much sense as this entire waste of time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review Big B The movie is one of those you watch and wonder who in God’s name wrote this script and then wonder what drugs the casting director was on when he hired these awful actors. You usually know it’s going to be an awful WW2 movie when they don’t even bother using actors that speak German to play the Germans. 😂🤪 Rated 1 out of 5 stars 07/30/25 Full Review David W Terrible. I’m a former paratrooper, and a D-day aficionado. The acting is terrible, some of the uniforms and equipment were far from accurate in that era (using an alice/rucksack to carry a eureka beacon, really?), the customs and courtesies didn’t make sense, like why is a first sergeant called a “sergeant” instead of top or just simply “first sergeant? Why is a German field officer patrolling with a lowly sergeant? The entire movie just doesn’t make sense and the acting is way beyond forced, now that’s 30 minutes of my time I can never get back.
