Very well executed
... View MoreThere 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.
... View MoreIn other words,this film is a surreal ride.
... View MoreStory: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
... View MoreAbsolute waste of money even on DVD. Only watch this if you have a penchant for extremely bad dialogue. In fact it is quite simply some of the worst script writing efforts I have ever witnessed on a movie with a larger budget. You could also watch it if you are writing a guide to the worst movies ever made, or a list of the best ways to waste millions of dollars.Realising that I would have to write ten lines on this movie has filled me with woe, for the very fact that I may have to actually revisit it; you see it has been some time since I actually saw the movie! However, I do remember at the time that it seemed a particularly sad descent for Michael Marsden, who had fine performances as a villain in Kill Bill I and II.
... View MoreI really enjoyed this movie.Great action.An excellent story.There does not seem to be enough movies like this these days.I like the way the different characters in the movie all came together in their own search for the Nazi loot.Greed certainly knows no bounds.I can imagine that an episode like this would have happened during WW2.As far as I know there are still 36 crates of Nazi gold still unaccounted for somewhere in the Bavarian Alps.All in all a great movie,excellent acting.Its a pity that some of the lesser known actors in this movie are not seen in more movies.Another movie along similar lines is Operation Amsterdam also a great story loosely based on real events.
... View MoreI've just seen "The Last Drop". Honestly, I had to watch it twice to see the whole film, for it failed to pull me in like other wartime-movies usually do. Having seen so many excellent wartime-movies, my expectations were at the beginning fairly high. Unfortunately, I was left disappointed for "The Last Drop" is no match for great movies such as "The Great Raid" or "Saving Private Ryan". The film lacks tension and suspense, as it shifts from one scene to another, as well as professional acting to carry out a good quality performance. I agree with the rest of you who claim the accents being indescribable and improper for everyone seems to speak with his own variety of British accent. That's just weird. To my opinion, the whole production of the movie is bad as the storyline loses thread and a viewer is thus left confused and rather disturb. On the other hand, putting in real footage makes the film a little bit more plausible and somehow makes up for the weak script reflected in excruciatingly poor dialogue. There is some ribald sense of humor to spice things up, yet not enough to bring characters into life. All in all, the scriptwriter and the producer of the film provide a viewer with low budget special effects, bad scenery and a sort of a mish-mash of old (jazz) and modern (rock!! :S ) soundtrack music. So, if you really do want to watch a wartime-movie, try to avoid this one and pick the miniseries "Band Of brothers" or one of the above mentioned movies instead.
... View MoreTurned it of 3/4 of the way through as the plot was lame and it goes nowhere fast. Some well known actors in there but the plot line was so drawn out it was boring and the greatest actors couldn't save it! The film had a lack of direction and a so-so script to boot. The stunts were OK but the images they portrayed were totally unbelievable. For instance 2 German officers broke through a US checkpoint and got away, then they were targetted by air in a small Jeep which was subsequently bombed from above, not once but twice and this was in a heavily wooded area! You find yourself often thinking AS IF! Wouldn't recommend it, it turned out to be cheesy, lame and totally boring.
