Product Description

War drama set in Belgium in December 1944. When German troops open fire on unarmed American prisoners of war, they provoke the historic Malmedy Massacre. Four soldiers, trapped behind enemy lines discover a stranded R.A.F. pilot who holds the key to German intelligence which could save thousands of American lives. The five men must battle through the bitter Winter landscape, to smuggle their precious cargo from the clutches of the enemy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Fades quickly from memory 6 Mar 2008
By Gisli Jokull Gislason VINE™ VOICE
Format:DVD
This is a movie which is o.k. for a single viewing and little more. It is certainly not based on a true story - although it takes into consideration certain real events such as the Malmedy Massacre and indeed the Battle of the Bulge. The story itself and the main characters are fiction. It is annoying if you know your history well then the timeline is distorted and the great secret intelligence the RAF Officer has obtained about the forthcoming invasion is rather redundant since the invasion started before the Malmedy Massacre and Allied High Command would have been painfully aware of it by now. And that is setting aside several other inconsistencies of less importance.

Added to that none of these inconsistencies needed to be there because the story is about a small group of soldiers and tries to tell the story of how they cope with the horror that is war. For such a story you could have had the background facts correct. As a story of a small group of men there is little new, such stories have been told before and continue to be told and this one fades quickly from memory.

It is worthy of note that this movie does very well with uniforms and hardware considering the tiny budget, around 1 million $ US and it is watchable, it just isn't a keeper - and I normally collect War Movies.

4.0 out of 5 stars Which side are any of us on? 25 Jan 2006
Format:DVD
One of those more restrained war films which focuses on the human perspective, rather than action for its own sake. American soldiers caught up in the grim business of war begin to question everything that is happening around them, as well as their own moral codes, before discovering precisely how easily the boundaries between friend and foe can blur, to say nothing of the sudden influence of lowly civilians who are forced to endure the military madness passing their way. Another colour-bleached tale in the Saving Private Ryan tradition of survival in enemy territory, with a smattering of incidents unusual enough to raise a few eyebrows. It would be interesting to know which events really did occur, apart from the well-documented massacre that is the film's starting point. The welcome absence of big screen stars only adds to its credibility. At 82 minutes, it's a tad too short, but thought-provoking viewing all the same.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good effort for an independent film! 5 Aug 2009
Format:DVD
I was happily surprised and did not see the religious propaganda as some other reviewers have expressed. The Deacon could have belonged to any other religion. Not your typical war movie.

A compelling plot and strong performances despite the dreadful British accent make this movie hold together. Small budget, unknown actors, young director... a typical independent film. Hats off! They deserve some recognition.

Started off interesting, but found it a really boring film. The WW2 parts badly filmed and just started to lose interest in the plot (well started to doze off).
