wow, I must watch it.

That does look like a really good movie.

Looks like a good movie but I don’t think blockbuster has it. Must not be out on DVD yet.

Looks good. I hate to be picky, but I’m a stickler for realism in movies. I noticed in the trailer video that a guy fires two rounds quickly from an M1 Garand and there is no kick to the weapon whatsoever. It looks like he’s shooting a cap gun because the weapon does not jolt the slightest bit. Now you know… any 30.06 rifle is going to kick you in the shoulder a bit. I’ve shot a 30.06, and I can telly ya, they will give you a tasty jerk!

I know, it’s nit picking, but it does look like a cool movie.

I took it out from Blockbuster. I must say it was rather enjoyable. A group of soldiers escape the Germans. Then along the way they run into a RAF downed pilot with crucial information on teh German offensive. They must now get that pilot to their lines so they can save lives. Very good film. 8)

I bought it on DVD out the bargin bin.

It’s average, and the RAF pilot’s accent is terrible.

Re: garand & recoil - in movies they fire blanks. This does not cause recoil. You only see “recoil” in movies if it’s simulated, & to me that just makes the guy look like he’s flinching terribly. But, in reality, the felt recoil on the Garand is much lower than the Springfield.

Still worth a watch :smiley:

Awsome movie, True story of the Malmedy Massacre in the Ardennes Forest
and also it was a independent film with no major funding .I feel that the film was as good as saving private ryan
