Nick De Semlyen Empire Magazine Despite the odd clunking mis-step and aspirations above its rank, this has enough going for it to get it home safely. Rated: 3/5 Oct 22, 2024 Full Review Empire Magazine Rated: 3/5 Apr 1, 2006 Full Review Janice Page Boston Globe There aren't any plot surprises in this low-budget effort, so the success of the mission from a viewer standpoint depends on how well you connect with the characters and their plight. Rated: 2.5/4 Apr 29, 2005 Full Review David Parkinson Radio Times The authentic-sounding banter helps to round out the characters' backstories, too, but the acting isn't the best and Heyborne's limey accent borders on parody. Rated: 2/5 Mar 21, 2025 Full Review Brian Costello Common Sense Media Thoughtful, engaging World War II movie has battle violence. Rated: 3/5 Aug 26, 2014 Full Review Vic Holtreman Screen Rant Rated: 4/5 Dec 30, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews

Johannes S Well-made short war movie. Although you spend so little time with the characters, you can feel for them. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/27/25 Full Review Audience Member Loved this movie as a kid, have to rewatch Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/02/24 Full Review jwcdood SAINTS AND SOLDIERS really works as a realistic WWII combat and drama flick. Too bad there aren't more of these made; all three of the series are good and I'd recommend them to anyone. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review colin m A not very interesting low budget unfocussed slow-moving movie about relationships between a group of soldiers behind enemy lines in WW2, as they encounter, intermittently, the enemy, and acquire a new objective. We didn't get to know the characters, so we weren't made to care much about what might happen to them. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member The most astonishing thing about this film is the fact that it is a top-quality film that was made by producers, crew, and actors whose names are unknown in Hollywood. After watching the movie on DVD, I watched the featurette about how it was made. I can hardly believe that a film as good as this was produced on a budget of under a million dollars. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Mark S Outstanding story. Ted Fry, you communist bastard, you know were you can shove it. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/13/21 Full Review Read all reviews
