Ardennes Fury

I normally watch and shrug off bad movies but this was so bad I have to ask why was it made in the first place? The acting was wooden; the dialog stilted as if written by a foreigner with limited American. Every cliché was there - heroic suicides; the trusty black sergeant; the foot on the mine; the evil Nazi. At every turn the plot was more and more incredible. The heroic mother whose children run off not once but twice. There was the ticking clock which ticked way beyond the deadline. There was the baddie surviving a direct hit from a bomb. The regulation fight to the death with knives.

I am 72 with too few hours left on this earth to waste on trash like this.

I agree with all the other posts but I also would like to say the German uniforms were mismatched bad. The officer wore a 3rd Ss isignia but the arm band didn't say totenkomp is appeared to be Adolf Hitler! What the hell was the fake truck that couldn't out run a tank that had what looked like the front of a dodge weapons carrier w a fake axle and a humvie bed! And firing an unloaded German m-g 42 out the bank! And the airplanes come on! Or the officer shoots the lady in the back from 5 feet but then it shows them 300 feet apart!! Should I go one.... Plz quit making films u suck! How old is the private getting tortured 35? Why are they they so unable to take a direct order rather than debate it? Why do they all clump up in a mob rather than spread out so they don't all die at once? Why do they burry the kid way out in the open fearing being shot? The Ss were the most furocious fighting force way better than ours just not enough of them and you make them look like the draft is idiots! You suck

Ardennes Fury is a very poorly done movie that does more wrong than it does right, but ranking it in The Asylum consistently dubious filmography it is nowhere near their worst. It at least has some very nice scenery and some of the pacing is tolerable, but Ardennes Fury had a low-budget and had little time to be made and unfortunately it does show. There are worse-looking Asylum movies around, at least the scenery looks like scenery and not like someone's basement or a deserted factory, but the camera work and editing are incredibly rushed and erratic, the special effects are artificial at best and look like over-sized toys and the movie is shot far too drably. The music is loud but not dynamic and could have done with more pulse, some of it is overly-loud drone-like, the best parts not being very memorable. The dialogue has a lot of military jargon and they're often incorporated in a clumsy way, the script itself is very stilted and disjointedly structured. There is at least a story here, the problem is it is also very basic and repetitive, granted it's good to keep things simple sometimes but when not much happens it actually feels simplistic instead. The dramatic parts lack any kind of heart and veer on overwrought while the battle scenes are erratically edited and have very little spirit and intensity. Much has been said already about the inaccuracies there are here(as well as the kitchen-sink-like clichés Ardennes Fury has), but this review is not going to comment on them other than that some of the inaccuracies are so blatant and wrong that it's ridiculous but rather on the movie's merits(or lack of). The characters are too stock and underwritten to be interesting, and while there is effort to show some conflicts and consequences there's very little if any emotional depth behind them. The acting is stiff across the board especially from the villains, who are also overacted too and hugely unconvincing as Germans. Overall, The Asylum has done much worse than Ardennes Fury, but Ardennes Fury regardless of the effort it did make had very little good going for it. 2/10 Bethany Cox

Worst WWII movie I have seen, unwatchable. I had to stop after just six minutes because of the historical inaccuracies.

* Germans fighting in what were obviously Soviet T-34 tanks * The "German" T-34s even had the invasion stripes on the turrets even though the fight was out in a field near some forest. The stripes were only used during the invasion of Berlin. * Three Tiger tanks were lined up abreast with maybe a meter between them. In fact two looked like their treads were touching they were so close together. * The editing made it look like one Sherman Easy Eight took out a Tiger with a frontal shot * The Sherman and the tiger were both in the open and maybe 50 meters apart at best.

It's hard to write 10 lines of text about this movie, there is absolutely no story, no action in this movie. Young boys with toy guns walking in the field, "fighting" in """big""" groups (3-4 solider per act). Toy tank shutting point blank range without hit! Germans in t34 with Russian marking, panzer iv made out of wood. Effects added in post processing by some kind of overlay layer? SonyVegas may by or any other Windows Home Movie Maker Amateur software. Absolutely no recoil on the guns. Poor acting, solider standing still in middle of the filed with no cover shouting with m1 to a tank. Mixed ww2 weapons with modern. Do not bay this move... please.
