TrueHello

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

If you accept this as a so bad it's almost good kind of B movie then you may enjoy this low budget war movie. When the hero is the creepy kid from Desperate Housewives you know it can't be too serious a movie.First of all they couldn't even bother with an authentic looking country farmhouse in France. The white wooden house looks straight from the deep South.At first it was quite novel seeing women in a post D Day scenario - how often do you see that on screen. The actresses are a little too well groomed and unconvincing. They look out of place.There are many times when you just want to shout shoot him or just let him or her die they are so stupid. There is a ridiculous hand to hand boxing match that is just hilarious. The eventual nerd to Rambo situation is almost laugh out loud funny.Watch it as a comedy.

I am a Vietnam era vet that loves WWII movies. This is as bad as it gets. There were no WACs serving in Northern France in the fall of 1944. The women had very inappropriate hair styles. There were no German vehicles in the movie. Some of the men had long hair. The weapons were wrong. Horrible.

1-I love war movies (this is why i chose to see this one)2-This is not a war movie!3-This is a 4th grade lousy melodrama set in a scene which does look like France after D Day4-The Germans are all mean and sadist and as such this is the best acting in the whole movie.5-The Americans are all flat no personality no continuity of the characters.6-whomever was concerned that the tanks are not authentic enough is probably right it is just that the tanks are a minor minor part of the story.6-A complete flop

The Last Rescue try's very hard to make a worthwhile B grade WWII drama/action flick and partly succeeds. The storytelling is reasonable, if predictable, and the acting is actually quite good. Where this film falls down badly is the choice of locations. Its very obviously not Europe. Worse still its not careful in its use of what is available. Houses used in the film are clearly not European, they look American. I was not surprised to find this film was shot in the USA. Perhaps this sounds petty but misuse of locations can really ruin the sense of atmosphere that was initially well established in the opening scenes of this drama. The Last Rescue is a reasonable effort that could have been better again with a more considered choice of locations and buildings. Six out of ten from me.
