Murder Company

Had to make this just to say that while the movie is indefensibly bad, a bunch of these reviewers are talking about the soldier at the beginning having a German gun. These reviewers apparently have no idea what an M3 Grease Gun is and thus shouldn't be criticizing weapons in any movie.

So don't complain about people not doing their homework when you haven't done yours either.

In regards to the movie, it definitely has the feeling of a student film. Like one of those someone made as their final assignment when they hit their Kickstarter limit. But there are certainly worse ways to spend an hour and a half.

I find it difficult to describe how awful this film is. The characters are all one dimensional, the enemy (German troops) is portrayed as incompetent boobs, and the dialogue is shallow.

In supposedly hot combat zones, American soldiers discuss whether an officer is dead or not while the Germans assemble to machine gun them down, but to no avail, one of the good guys sneaks up behind and kills all them! Then calmly goes about his day.

Dialogue is all trite, filled with cliches and old, tiring stories that have been done a dozen times before, with some minor change. Truthfully, this production was more like the "Apocalypse Now" production done in Rushmore than an actual war film.

It's D-day. American soldiers are scattered behind German lines. General Haskel (Kelsey Grammer) has a mission for five disparate soldiers from different companies. They have to rescue a French resistance fighter who would lead them to an important Nazi general in charge of transportation.

This is your basic war B-movie. I don't recognize any of the main actors except for Kelsey Grammer. Most of the budget was probably spent on him. He did some scenes with the main guys and then did a bunch of other scenes with a bunch of nobodies. It probably took him a week, five business days. The action ranges from passable to poorly staged. There are two big battles when around five good guys kill about fifty Nazis. They do throw in a couple of death scenes for the good guys. There is an evil Nazi at the end of road. This is not good.

Watched the first 30 minutes, then quit.

The first.1 minute had a parachute drop with 101st, ok... yes that's accurate, but then the sergeant (first character) had a MP40 in has back. He meets a private with a Thompson. So if you are going to have one guy with a Thompson, why give the sergeant a German SMG?

That's where it started, and it didn't get any better. Tried to give characters a backstory, with some dialogue about 'what would you do if you weren't in the war" and answer was "well I wouldn't be here that's for sure!".

Come on... if you want to spend time on development, give them something the audience can relate to.

A World War ll movie with no military discipline or courtesy. This movie is so amateurish it is horrible; it is also sloppy. Uniforms are wrong; military weapons are incorrect; story line is pathetic. This is a high school story which is nothing but dribble. How anyone should be happy to make this movie only indicates how desperate they are for the work. What a complete waste of my time. I wanted to like it, but I could not; I laughed in too many places that were funny to me, but the writer did not intend this. This is a movie the writer should return to college for a history of World War ll and learn how 6 June 1944 was accomplished. This to a movie that should languish on the shelf.
