Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

screenman 'The Fallen' offers a take on the fractured loyalties of men when things start to go wrong in war.Set in Italy, and supposedly filmed on location, a struggling German defence is being held, as the Italian army teeters on the edge of collapse. Those Latins still wearing uniform are becoming riven with doubt. Some still have a sense of duty and national pride, others now obsess over their survival and welfare of families. Many are ready to surrender or dessert and are only discouraged from either by their 'band of brothers' psychology. Meanwhile Italian partisans who never supported Il Duce or the war are growing in numbers and audacity. Yet even here there are conflicting regional, religious and political ideologies.This would be a very difficult canvas to paint even in the hands of a director who can really handle 'the big picture'. And for me, at least, it doesn't succeed. All of the characters are just a little too ordinary. The script is simplistic - which may well be true to life - but doesn't really hold the attention.Some of the filming is nicely accomplished and there is a modern-day realism to the combat and firefight sequences. But the clumsy, confused and amateurish soldiers also lend a clumsy, confused and amateurish appearance to the movie. Some of the editing is choppy, which only adds to the appearance of amateurishness.The blurb lists a run-time of 106mins. I don't know how much I watched, but it was a fair chunk, yet I simply couldn't be bothered to see it through. The blurb also quotes something called 'The Reeler' claiming it is 'Saving Private Ryan, only better'. Yeah - In yer dreams.It's the old story: I wasn't induced to care about the characters. And if you don't care about the characters, then you don't care what happens to them, ergo there is no story.Not recommended.

filippo previtali I've rent the movie because i'm very fond on war movies and on the cover picture i've read " better than save private ryan"....mmmmm ...i thought cool! guys....is just a ridiculous movie. Almost fun. Nothing to do with a proper war movie. I want my money back! Why the f...k the peoples lies??????????? F NO SUBTITLES They tried to make everything cooler with the light....but they didn't make it. Sorry about this.....but the movie is awful. The italians are shown as "Mafia e mandolino"The American as stupid farmer The Germans as even more stupid farmer.The actor are ridiculous and unprofessional.Please....please......

jajosullivan I really enjoyed this film. It was sad and funny and tragic and many other things as well. It reminded me of the hallelujah trail (Burt Lancaster)with loads of people wandering around looking for each other. Eventually they find each other whether they want to or not and a number of them end up dead (this being unlike the Hallelulah Trail). I liked the way that lots of the characters wanted out but kept on going despite their fears.I imagine this is true of most combatants. Some people are heroes (see Audie Murphies Films)but most people are just people. There were a number of stereotypes but then this is also true of life. Wherever you go you meet people who fit these stereotypes. It was a very human film.

John Ramaine I thought that making a movie showing three points of view, was a brave choice, by the director, considering the history which took place during the war. Showing brave men fight for a losing cause, made the message of war and its purpose senseless. I didn't hate the Nazi soldiers, I felt sorry for them, which is quite a feat. Kudos all around to a well directed, acted and written story. I would recommend it to anyone with an open mind. I am not aware of what the budget of this film was but it had to be expensive considering all of the equipment, trucks and ammo that had to be used in this shoot. Though it is an independent film, it comes across like a studio project. I was also aware that there were no famous names in the project which helped me stay focused on the film without having to overcome the familiar mannerisms which a celebrity brings to a role.
