Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/22/23 Full Review Red T It's a Mess but entertaining toward the end. The music is pretty generic and forgettable. The is ok with Flak & Lancaster standing out with decent performances but the rest just all blend in and are very generic and forgettable. The editing is ok enough and the pacing is a tolerable mess. This overcompensates for 60% of the runtime basically sitting around talking in riddles and proverbs about art and why the castle should/shouldn't be protected and it feels like it never goes anywhere, never contributes to meaningful character development, or builds suspense. Than the final 40% is nothing but straight action. The cinematography is decent and the best part of this. The castle is a memorable setting and its shot well but the scenes don't really have anything going on besides talking about religion, art meaning, and philosophical expose that goes in circles. The action is the best part and is surprisingly good with very well done practical effects overall including some awesome destruction shots like the church and castle burning. That being said I didn't really care for anyone in it much and it did become a bit mindless in the fighting at times. Honestly unless your a super die hard Lancaster fan skip this. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/13/23 Full Review deke p What A SNOOZE-FEST! More like a BORE movie than a war movie. It is said that war is long periods of boredom, punctuated by moments of killing. This movie concentrates on the boredom. Can't believe I've never seen this 1969 movie until now on tv 7.26.2022, tho I've heard of it since it came out and thot by the title that I was really missing something. A small group of US army soldiers being bored, and having sex with wanton Euro women, while occupying a very rich man's castle. Finally gets soe action near the end, but not enuf to save it. Bruce DERN is in it as a crazy Christian pacifist.
