The Liberation Men

The Liberation Men is a good movie with a lot of drama and suspense in it. It is a period movie that is worth seeing. It takes place in an historical wartime period. However, what is most surprising is that it is not a historical romantic movie without compromising it's creativity and originality. The movie got stronger as the movie went along, pulling you in. The women in the film are important characters but it is the men who are the central to the film's story. Films transporting audiences back through time have captivated movie audiences over the years and this film is no exception. Bravo!

The liberation men is a solid indie war flick that depvs into the backstory of the liberation of Holland. Good character development, low light shooting and story. The pace could be better, the lead at times seemed a little low energy although a solid effort there, throw in some more adventurous camera angles (the Dutch angle would be appropriate, Mr robot frame), and sometimes the sound was difficult to hear, but all minor things when you see the effort to detail and other things put into this movie. It takes an army and deep pockets to make the kind of movies we are used to seeing in the box office, which makes this one worthy of look just to see what can be done on a 'budget'.

What a treat to see a war film on a budget look and feel much more than it should. Well made and directed. These are the type of indie film that need more attention. Covering subject matter during the war with interesting characters is successful in this drama. I was really surprised by the production value of this film. It was well researched and the uniforms weapons and vehicles was nice to see. Locations were authentic and gave a haunting feel to the time period as we know what went on during theses times. Over all a great film to watch and especially if your a history buff or just someone who likes period films.

In an era where Hollywood dominates the depiction of world wars, these filmmakers undertook the challenge of creating a realistic and believable movie on a budget. Story is told from the perspective of the Canadian armed forces stationed in Holland, facing off against German Nazis. The visuals are impressive... from the period-era costumes and set design, to the authentic WW2-era tanks rolling over the hillside, to the Jeeps and weaponry. I appreciated the inclusion of multiple characters' points of view. WWII film buffs will love this movie, as will anyone who appreciates an indie drama where the good guys win at a cost. Worth watching!

This film has an Interesting story and it is told well. The attention to detail in every scene is evident. The production design team did a great job, too. From creating a realistic hospital (hospital beds, medical equipment, etc.) from the WWII era to creating convincing battlegrounds. I appreciate what the filmmakers where doing. A job well done. A herculean effort on the part of the filmmakers to make this movie work with a relatively tight budget. The costumes, for example. Not to mention the tanks, etc. Wow! I commend all involved for pouring their heart and soul into creating this film. Check it out!
