Review by darkjak-705-344077

The cast and cinematography give their best, but the script asks too much of the audience to believe one hell of a slippery slop and misguided actions that feel too haphazard even for the times of WWII. Now yes, villagers get scared and dumb stuff happens...but a militant squad of the Third Reich being this incompetent because it's a father-son masquerading as a force to be reckoned with? I'm sorry, but that kind of power doesn't just shirk German lives like this and let civilians catch them off-guard. Most the soldiers don't even seem to do more than stare and point their rifles. The revenge arc of both Leonard and Laurentz are not satisfying as both seem lethargic in their quest to be good men. And both seem okay with allowing lots of grief upon circle.
