Klaus Muller, a battle-hardened veteran, finds himself fighting for his life on the Russian front. Surrounded by overwhelming numbers of Russian tanks and planes, he and his men are doomed until famed German tank ace, Michael Wittmann, shows up in his Tiger Tank and saves the day. Once wounded, Klaus is transferred to Normandy to serve under Field Marshal Rommel just days before the Allied invasion. Much to his surprise, he finds that his beloved Klaudia is also stationed nearby as a field nurse. Unfortunately, so is her father, who is working with the French resistance and now finds himself pursued by the ruthless Gestapo officer Brahms, whose search leads him to Klaus and Klaudia attempting a rescue. They are caught and imprisoned. As D-Day begins and the Allies attack from the beaches and the sky, they escape from the prison, fighting the Gestapo in the middle of the biggest invasion in world history...

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Brendon Jones 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.
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
jamieanderson-67808 I have to say I do not feel the rough critique of this film justified. Sure it is an Indie film and not of a million dollar budget. but they put a lot of effort into it, a lot of historic facts and nice war scenes, The tanks and guns were real not a lot of fake CGI and they made a serious effort here. Seriously give them some credit for all the tanks planes and guns they put together. I truly enjoyed it and watched it several times, there are some really good points to it, and the acting was solid on all parts. And as film fans we should acknowledge those of smaller budgets not just run them over because they did not have a studio budget.
ban523 I strongly suggest that no one ever watches this movie. I bought it for five bucks at a red box and realized it was the worst five bucks I have ever spent in my life. Everything was ridiculously fake looking as well as just plain. I knew it was some type of private company film when the men would get shot and just fall, no blood, nothing. I'm not a mean person, but whoever helped make this movie should really consider a new job approach. I am 19 and a big fan of World War 2 films and I have no problems saying this is one of the worst I've ever seen. After fifteen minutes of watching this movie, I realized I couldn't take it anymore, I had to stop it, I almost threw it away/broke it in half, but my Dad said to keep it. Let's put it this way, I would rather break the movie disc in half and let out anger than watch another ten minutes of this movie.
engima571 As a WWII reenactor and history enthusiast, I tend to be rather harsh on movies, but in this case I think a low rating is justifiable. I can appreciate Mr. Struckmann's enthusiasm for working with reenactors in film, but it is simply not working out for him. He seems to bite off more than he can chew in this movie, given his roles as lead actor, producer, executive producer, director, and writer. The plot was barely discernible, and even though I did sit through the whole movie, I'm still not exactly sure what happened. Perhaps if Tino decided to stick with one role, be it acting, directing, or whatever, and practiced it a great deal, then he might have more success. In addition to the flaws with the story, the historical inaccuracies are so glaring that they seriously made me contemplate shooting my television. Many of the "top of the line" troops are overweight and middle-aged, and the wide variety of individual reenactors with different impressions means that you have many people with different gear congregating where they shouldn't be (E.G. Heer, SS, Fallschirmjäger, and Luftwaffe troops guarding a Gestapo prison). While I appreciate that working with reenactors allows the movie access to plenty of period vehicles, weapons, and pieces of equipment for a minuscule price, it doesn't make the movie very convincing at all thanks to their often unprofessional appearance and actions. Overall, I can appreciate the amount of work put in my Mr. Struckmann, but I think that this movie spends too much time trying to be an epic with hundreds of troops on screen and not enough working out the many kinks in the story to be worth more than a laugh.
rolando thomas I thought it was a great war movie, a good story and a lot of action and an enormous amount of tanks, planes and hardware, and its all real not fake CG and I love that, but in a world of big fake studio films some people may not like the good old fashion style of film making. and its a shame more films are not made like this, the studios could learn a bit here as they usually just lean on effects to cover up an unoriginal story. the storyline here is absolutely original with some good actors, and a few less so but on a low budget they did an amazing job. and some of the shots are spectacular like the plane shots and tank battles, how they did it for real is unbelievable - great job
