Very overrated

Rating: 5/10 (11 November 2008)

Visually this film was brilliant, especially the first scenes on D-day. It was probably the most graphic and visually impressive war movie I've seen, but a great war movie isn't made by how good (or in a way not so good) it looks. The acting in this film was pretty mediocre and i was only interested when people were shooting each other! The script was terrible with cheesy characters and back stories that really wasn't very interesting. The plot was poor as well it may have been based on a true mission in world war 2, but it wasn't as good as it could've been if they had just simply based it on a famous battle in Normandy. This could've of been a brilliant film but it fell on some very important hurdles.
