Cath Clarke Guardian There are a couple of nail-biting who’s-going-to-shoot-who moments, but the film is let down by a few too many cliches – as well as Westwick’s occasionally iffy facial expressions. Rated: 2/5 Sep 7, 2022 Full Review Alistair Lawrence Common Sense Media Thin WWII action-thriller has violence, some swearing. Rated: 2/5 Sep 17, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Ken D Absolutely hilarious but it's not supposed be...There are so many completely implausible aspects of this story considering the serious tone. The gun fights are ridiculous. British commandos wandering around the countryside up and down roads in broad daylight in nazi territory...yeah right. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/25/24 Full Review Stuart M Utter bloody rubbish Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/17/24 Full Review MF L What a shocking movie !! It's not worth mentioning 👎 Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/24 Full Review Ashmansworth Oh crikey this is awful Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/24 Full Review Craig C It was just ok you could tell it was a low budget movie Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/11/24 Full Review Trina B IN A NUTSHELL: At the end of World War II, a tough British officer leads a band of Allied commandos into enemy territory in Bavaria on one last impossible mission to extract an important American scientist held hostage by the Nazis. The suspenseful war drama was directed by Giles Alderson. The story was written by Toby Kearton and Samuel Christopher Ellis. The screenplay was written by Ben Mole and is based on a true story. THINGS I LIKED: I really enjoy World War II movies because there was such a clear line between the Allies and the Nazi enemies. In this film, the lines blur a little bit, offering unique insight. Ed Westwick plays the leading man. I like him, although it was often hard to understand his subtle, facial expressions at times. Matt Willis plays a large role in the movie. He kind of reminded me of a young Russell Crowe both in looks and voice quality. Did you know he's the co-founder and bassist in the band "Busted"? Max Themak plays the sadistic Nazi leader. He is so over-the-top in his viciousness that it's easy to hate him. There are some suspenseful moments. The team looked like they were trying hard to create an interesting movie. THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: There are some cliched moments stolen from other/better movies. I wished I had captions to read during this movie because sometimes, it was hard to understand what people were saying. The child actors were not very good. I feel so mean writing that. As a Grammar Nazi, I wished they had added punctuation to the end card toward the end of the movie. I always appreciate reading "the rest of the story" at the end of movies like this. The field gear and locations in the movie aren't accurate. True history buffs will be annoyed by that. The film would have definitely benefited from having a military consultant on set. Ultimately, the movie isn't memorable. TIPS FOR PARENTS: Brutal violence Bloody deaths Profanity, including 1 F-bomb THEMES: War Hope Family Science The value of human life You can see the full review on the Movie Review Mom YouTube channel.
