11th September moral in 1945

Rating: 3/10 (21 May 2002)

It starts all right. The grey-tone scale in the prison camp is well photographed and you think you are watching a rather exciting war drama. But that's only what you think. It tends to be Sunday School drama with that kind of morality included and lots and lots of empty words about honour, sacrifices and so on. bin Ladin has really done lots of damage.
Bruce Willis is OK as the American colonel; he is an underestimated actor. But Colin Farrell's puppy-like looks are not even a parody on themselves, they are only tiresome. And Marcel Iures' German colonel is the same character we have seen in too many films, starting in 1945 probably.
You ought to miss this one!
