Iron Cross: The Road to Normandy

Horrid acting. Worse dialog, so many clichés. Zero plot, comically amateurish special effects. Clearly no budget for dialogue coaches, many Germans speak with American accents, or worse, obviously faked German ones.

Looks like WWII reenactment units stumbled onto a movie set. The opening ten minutes is a battle, obviously fought between reenactment groups, everyone desperately trying to keep their precious uniforms clean during the dust up. In fact EVERYONE has pristine uniforms, even the wounded. Apparently no one got dirty during World War II.

Three stars for very accurate equipment.

Avoid this stink burger like the plague. Honestly I didn't make it even half way.

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.

Hands down the worst WWII film I've ever seen. Acting and script stale and cliche at best. Unless you are in prison and forced to watch, skip over this waste of time.

Whatever qualities the move may either have or lack, the listing shows Odessa, Russia, as the filming location. It's Odessa, Ukraine, despite Putin's efforts to make it part of Russia.

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.
