Defiance is OK, some strange casting but OK - they even have some nicely disguised ex Swiss Pz-61/68's playing Panzer IV's in it - fek'n bad job on the muzzle brakes though - just little buckets for the pyro charges!

Nicolas Cage's "Wind Talkers" anyone? what a total pile of steaming turds! Typical John Woo direction, the star always ends up firing an M1911 off in each as he mages to get a gazzillion rounds out of each mag!

Ya daft bollox, it was two Colt's - Woo always having two pistola moments in his flicks.

Thompson nice weapon, especially when tarted up and towted as the M-41A Pulse Rifle in Aliens!

So it is! But than, the MG42 tarted up as a smart gun was quite gucci looking especially mounted on a steadycam harness

I don't know why it took the Germans so long to find her. I went to Amsterdam a week ago, and there are signs for her house all over the place.

And her diary was pretty pants............

Ah, but that's because the signs were in English. Damned cunning, these Jews.

Shame about the drum-kit, though.

A continuing theme in the Mel Gibson big pile of anti British rubbish

Ok I'll go for A Bridge over the River Kwai

Almost finished the real life C.O. who every one thought was a collaberator after the film
IIRC cinemas were picketed by ex Japanese P.O.W pro6testing about the way the railway building was portrayed

Passchendaele

A Canadian war movie released last year (or 0

was a right laffer, which was unfortunate as I was really looking forward to it coming out. The director Paul Gross went to great lengths to re-create accurate WW1 battle scenes but spoiled it by:

Starring in it as the wounded hero sent home who falls in love with the hottest bint in town who's brother is going to war so he rejoins the unit to save said underage kid.

The bint just happens to be a nurse who coincidentally finds herself near the battlefield btw.

I wish I could describe how laughable the final scene was as our hero (Gross) drags the kid who, after getting himself blown up, landed upright on a cruciform symbol. The wounded Gross puts the cross over his left shoulder and drags it on hands and knees back across no-mans land to the admiration of the 3 Hun and the 4 Cdns that were left standing after the battle.

I'm probably in a minority but I thought the Russian film 9th Company was crap . He get all these thousands of Jihadists charging the Soviet positions then there's jump cuts to where they all seem to have disappeared . Also if you look up the real actual battle the company only lost a small handful of men

I don't think Black Hawk Down is as bad as made out . The Rangers did in fact get saved by a PakistaniUN / 10th Mountain Division force . There is a ridiculous inaccuracy when Sgt Eversman ( Josh Hartnett ) leads the defence when in fact the real life Eversman spent most of the battle back at base
