Utter Rubbish

Rating: 1/10 (8 August 2015)

Obviously a film for children. Historically inept and if you believe a crack SS battalion would take that long to get into position and lost so many men to one disabled tank the War would have finished in September '39. Unfortunately they weren't and it didn't. Rubbish like this does a huge disservice to the men who fought. It might be worth pointing out the preamble, obviously written after someone had been down the pub, had nothing to with the rest of the film. (Spoiler alert) I'm also fascinated as to how the special effects team thought that dropping two grenades into a turret would leave the hero elegantly dead and not ripped to shreds. I could go out about all sorts of other historical ineptitude but accuracy was obviously a long way down the list of film-making requirement, a great pity as rubbish like this will be served to future generations under the guise of 'education'.
