Critic Reviews
-
Bruce Bennett, Spectrum (St. George, Utah)
Instead of mindless action, a more personal WWII story and though a little corny at times, it has a nice twist and a gripping, heartfelt ending that bring it home.
-
Derek Malcolm, This is London
Watchable but hardly memorable.
-
Peter Bradshaw, Guardian [UK]
It is competently put together, but ... the nagging question is: what's the point?
-
Alex King, Little White Lies
This low-budget take on the D-Day landings is hampered by stock characterisations and religious didacticism.
