There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

If I could give it a minus vote it would be minus ten.In the trivia section here on IMDb it says it was the largest outdoor set, really? I mean it looks like it was filmed in my back garden. OK I know this action is set at night but some scenes were so dark I thought my TV was on the blink. So many close ups in fact the whole of the action was in close ups, just a face or a gun or even in some cases a soldiers belt I mean what the....... Was the acting bad? difficult to say with so much close up shots you could only judge on the script which is dire.Others have pointed out the obvious filming of US houses and landscape so I won't repeat. I tried to make it to the end but couldn't, sorry but this is an insult to the real Pathfinders.

I'm totally amazed by the reviewers that gave this movie more than a "1". Bad acting, bad dialog, unrealistic combat scenes and everything else already mentioned by the other reviewers. I rarely write reviews, but this one forced me to do one. The WWII Pathfinders were critical to the D-Day invasion, but this movie is SO bad, it should have never been made. Hopefully some one will do their story justice in a future movie.

I have watched just about every WW2 movie and TV series ever made since the war, plus most of key movies made of the Vietnam and Korean wars. Given this movie's synopsis, and having previously read the historical story of D-Day airborne pathfinders, I was really looking forward to watching the movie and hoping it will be good. I was absolutely disappointed!'Pathfinders' is so bad it has to rank in the worst 5% of WW2 movies ever made! Describing the movie as 'awful' would be an understatement. I always hesitate being too critical but this movie is so bad that it is difficult, arguably impossible, to rate it as anything else.And what's this about a 60 year secret? Total nonsense!Some argue that the acting is poor. I believe however that it is pathetic directing and poor production. Who in the right mind directs and produces a film where much of the film involves closeups of actors' faces? How much mouth, nose, eyes and ears, filling the screen, can a viewer take? It got so annoying that it really tested my perseverance and was tempted to stop the movie several times during play. Finally I had had enough about 3/4 of the way through.There is not much in terms of colors and textures; everything is dark. Characters are not properly portrayed, developed and followed through the movie. All the characters melded together and one got confused as to who is who.The film also suffers from lack of continuity and momentum, plus many parts simply do not make sense. It is disjointed.Much of the tactical movement and action is completely unrealistic and ludicrous.This movie was to be a portrayal of a dramatic, distinguished and historical battle behind the lines, but lacked so much it did not successfully portray anything. Sadly this movie does no justice to the brave heroes who were the real pathfinders. Those old warriors, many of whom were citizen volunteers for the war, are deserving of much, much more than this. If this movie was meant to commemorate or memorialize these men or their sacrifices, it has undoubtedly failed and failed utterly.I cycle through my WW2 DVDs and probably watch each movie twice or more every year. Pathfinders was such a torture to watch that I will probably never watch it again. I would not recommend this movie, and certainly would not recommend buying its DVD.

I watched this film because I eat up everything World War 2. This film was definitely amateur hour at it's worst. The saddest part is that most people know little of the Pathfinders and though mostly ineffective the Pathfinders did play a part in Normandy. That being said, the camera was too zoomed, almost always cutting off the heads and showing us the over- dramatic facial expressions from the B - movie actors. The Sound, well, sincerely said it's as bad as a bootleg DVD filmed with a camcorder in a movie theater. Truly horrible production, camera shots, sound, acting, scripting and overall picture quality. The only way I'd recommend this trash would be for use in torturing a prisoner for information. Honestly, THAT bad.
