Colin M Jan 24 Minor, relatively low budget French war movie with English subtitles, about North African arabs fighting for the French side in WW2. It was a bit slow without much excitement except for the action scenes near the end. There wasn't anyone I found myself rooting for. See more Tim P 01/16/2024 An intensely moving, enlightening film well made and acted. I'm so pleased I saw it. See more dave s 09/26/2022 Set in 1943, when a ragtag group of Moroccans and Algerians soldiers join the Allied forces to help liberate France, it quickly becomes evident that they are held to a different standard, used primarily as fodder for Axis bullets to determine where the German forces are encamped. Bolstered by strong performances from a mostly unknown cast and some stirring battle sequences, most notably the final push to liberate Alsace, Days of Glory is a powerful war film that brings attention to flagrant racism that existed within the ranks as Muslim soldiers, beyond being considered expendable in the war effort, are refused leave, provided with limited rations, and, many years later, denied their war pensions. See more 06/07/2020 A good, but not great, WW2 movie. It is rare to get the perspective of the French Armed Forces during the war. It's even more rare to follow a group of colonial soldiers. Worth watching if you are a fan of the genre. See more 08/19/2016 pretty ordinary. also only watch if you understand french or you will be reading the whole damn thing. distracting. See more 06/02/2016 Predictable low rent French rubbish.The story starts off with the North African corps enlisted by the French to fight their war. Inevitably causing 2 hours of ethnic arguing against the French with little fighting for a WW2 film. A sad WW2 film.. See more Read all reviews
