I like war movies and I'm very lenient, but this one is just too terrible. Reverse angle on the filing, and the numbers are backwards... Bad acting... obvious he actors never fired a gun before... bad special effects...
I tried... I tried really hard, but I only lasted 10 minutes before I gave up on this one.

Don't waste your time
Avoid - but an extra star for effort anyway
Making a war movie isn't an easy feat. I have to acknowledge the work that went into this, but it's unfortunately wasted due mostly to bad editing and (yikes) English with German accents like Hogan's Heros. But there's also the bad acting, annoying music and many mistakes, including endless, meaningless shooting during which there's no apparent urgency; some soldiers aren't even ducking. I didn't make it to the end, but this movie definitely isn't your best choice and offers nothing new that I can see.
Deserves To Be Court Marshalled And Shot...
Ever seen those home made YouTube vids where teenagers make a 5 minute war movie so they can pretend to be a hero? It helps them forget that they're the runt that gets bullied every day.
Imagine if one of them was given a few thousand dollars? This is what they'd make.
The directing is so bad, lots of pointless close ups on bad actors. The special effects are laughable and not special at all.
I have no idea about the story because I lasted less than 10 minutes. But considering the clichés it started with I was certain that it wasn't going to get any better.
At best this is a late night made for TV film for a low budget station, nothing more.
