  Order227

  This WWI film is set against the backdrop of Operation Market Garden which is also the subject of A Bridge Too Far. The story illustrates the attempt by rogue German deserters to steal a cache of art treasures very valuable in the Netherlands. The endeavor is complicated more b...( read more)y a guard of German regulars. A spy task force of Allies simultaneously is sent to secure the treasures, or if necessary destroy the cache from the Germans.
  
  The SS has orders to remove the contents to Germany. The Allied force uses German uniforms and a Luftwaffe plane in their attempt and are mistaken for the enemy when the American contingent arrives. The German rogue force elements run afoul of the Allied covert group, the Americans and the SS. The film climaxes as all converge in a mad looting free-for-all, with everyone attacking everybody else.
  
  The tragedy is that so many such European treasures were indeed damaged, destroyed, stolen or lost in WWII. The Last Drop is a fictitious scenario about soldiers putting greed ahead of duty. The Last Drop too is concerning the issue of misidentification, second guessing and freindly fire that occurs in war when dereliction of duty or accidents causes deviations from plans.

  Ok- so in real life here I only saw this because I love Alexander Skarsgard, but still this was medium.

  Looks terrible from the trailer and has Jack Dee in it for some bizzare reason...

  A blend of action, comedy and WWII...not a good blend.
