Twisted and completely unshocking. Terrible Film.

Rating: 1/10 (30 December 2017)

Within minutes I realized what a terrible mistake I made made going to watch this film. It seemed liked a sub-par TV series with no atmosphere and wooden props.
So many mistakes. Spitfire running out of fuel and then managing to down a Stuka bomber and then fly past Kenneth Branagh (you could even predict this moment seconds before it was that trite). Talking about poor old Kenneth spent most of the film wandering up and down a pier... nice work if you can get it!
Stukas bombing soldiers who remarkably all stayed in one piece after being hit. In reality many of them would have been in seriously bad shape and not many would have been in one piece. The horror would be unimaginable... may be this was for the certificate but it was just so unrealistic.
Spitfire canopy stuck... oh yes.. it had to happen didn't it! It's like in plot development somebody came up with that bright idea (not)... entirely predictable.
Characters were so wooden that no sympathy was allowed to develop.
And Germans bombing clearly marked hospital ships. I find that piece of revisionist history sickening. Even the Luftwaffe would have court martialled and hung any such offender.
A terrible film.
