More Compelling than Saving Private Ryan By no means! Not even close!

Rating: 7/10 (11 March 2006)

I just don't see this movie as being that great, I mean the action was good, and some action in a middle to hold me in to see what was going to happen but, the movie was rather boring! Its a little over 2 hours and there's about 10 minutes of action. The special effects during the raid were not that great, if you got shot, I don't think there would be a whole in you the size of a soft ball. Honestly, I don't know what to say about this movie. Just another heroic rescue showing what our army does to each other and cares for each other. The tactics during the raid were good, but then lacking a little... well, lets just say it was'nt perfect, but somehow only one man was shot and killed, which really happened so its alright.
I'm not going to be the ones saying, oh this movie sucks don't waste your time! I'm not and I won't, I just had higher expectations, thats all, if you like World War II movies then why not give it a try, thats all I can say, just don't expect a classic and that much action either.
