Burial

For a low-budget movie Burial is ok. There's is one good scene in the forest that shows that the director has potential.

But really annoying is how the different languages of the charakters are managed:

The Russians and the Germans speak English among each other, but sometimes they speak Russian or German what really makes no sense in this context.

If the director wants to know how this is done, he should watch Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds.

Actually I was hoping for something interesting to happen at the end, but there's no twist or revelation.

The visual effects are good, especially the scenes of Berlin in ruines at the beginning of the movie.

The actors perfom well, I think I never saw any of them in a movie before.

The movie should only be watched when I do not find a better movie, but it should be easy to find a better movie.

This is a tense film detailing a Soviet group who are transporting back a coffin to Stalin at the end if the European side of WWII. In Poland, they are attacked by Nazis and have to fight their way for survival. There isn't anything supernatural as a main plotting in this film, but there are a couple moments that suggest something eerie is occurring. Don't expect more than a flash or two on this front. Still works simply from the force of the female lead as she pushes through the chaos around her as she desires to complete her mission. Overall, interesting film but some confusion given similar appearance of actors. Still worth a watch.

The tagline "attacked by nazi werewolves" is extremely misleading. The term is also used for nazis behind enemy lines fighting guerrilla style. There are no supernatural elements in this movie. As soon as I figured that out I turned it off.

I can't tell if this is a purposeful misdirection or just sloppy marketing. It definitely does not belong in the horror category, which also adds to the 'werewolf' misdirection.

The problem is I am sure this is a pretty decent movie. From what I saw everything looked well done and well acted. The story itself seemed interesting enough, it's just when I turned the movie on I wanted a werewolf movie.

This is a Director Ben Parkers 2nd movie, give him time. There's a little insight at Polish people misery in WWII, which I am sympathetic as an Estonian. Our nation suffered kind a similar fate in WWII, like a meat grinder between nazi and soviet forces.

Overall, a simple war movie. No big battles, no big fancy special effects, no big budget. Idea is good, I think, but something is lacking. Or maybe it is bad editing. There are some really odd moments. Like if actor takes his hand form under coat and it is full of blood looks like homemade movie. But then again if it would have been Tom Hanks maybe it had been ok. But anyways director Ben needs to keep going.

This movie was categorized as a horror film on Amazon. What a mistake! Definitely not a horror film.

With that being said, I was totally disappointed with this 6.99 rental. The film is watchable but more of a lower budget war film. War is horrific but this is not a horror film. Absolutely zero horror here. If looking for a decent lower budget war movie about small group of Russians transporting the dead body of Hitler, give it a shot otherwise I'd say run from this mess. This one is a bit of a bore with just enough to keep one viewing. This on could have been great given the premise but came up quite short.
