Kathy Z One of the worst movies I've ever seen. I'd give it a minus if possible. Actors often seemed like they were reading off cards. Terrible acting, terrible sound, terrible changes in what's happening; I'm embarrassed to admit I toughed it out. If the ‘director' truly is a 15 year old, I hope those who care about him will pay for him to go to film school. I applaud the effort in one so young but cannot figure out how this made it to Amazon. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review John C Who's the idiot that edits this movie. How did a Canadian flag get into a WW11 themed movie at the 50th minute of the movie. The reason I ask is because that Canadian flag 🇨🇦, was not created until 1965. Maybe your movie has time traveller? Really destroyed the meaning and and killed your movie. Absolutely one of the most dumbest movies I have ever seen and shouldn't be shown in public because your movie has offended an entire country. And you really insulted this Canadian! Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 12/20/22 Full Review Jenn F No, no and no. Very dry. No explanation throughout…just leaves you wondering (if you don't already know the story) what the hell is going on when and where throughout the entire (not very long) movie. I'm not giving it a high rating just because the Director was worked on it to get it out between the ages of 14-16. If he wanted to tell his great Grandfather's story, then that's what he should have done. Instead, we're left to use our imaginations and piece together what we think is happening or happened. I knew they gist of the story from my grandfather who was in WWII and my Father and Uncle. There are too many other WWII movies way worth your time, this one isn't. The saddest part, usually when movies receive low star reviews, those are the really good movies…this isn't one of those movies. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/10/22 Full Review Read all reviews
