Bad Acting, Bad Directing, Bad Script, Bad Production...Bad

Rating: 2/10 (30 August 2005)

What a wasted opportunity...this could, or rather should, have been a great and innovative war film. The material was there, the sets were there, the atmosphere was there. Unfortunately appalling dialogue, poor production and terrible acting completely ruin the film.
Given the corny dialogue (particularly in the romance scenes), the very poor studio over-dubbing and stilted acting (Ed Harris perhaps excepted)I can only assume that the Director has made nothing except porn films in the 1970's. The sub-plot consisted of all the worst bits of the love story in Titanic, itself perhaps the worst film ever made; cliché after cliché, improbability after improbability. I mean...people deliberately getting themselves shot dead as a 'favour' to the hero...pleeeeeze Avoid like the plague
