Scheldt 44' - coming to Netflix

[HirooOnoda]

I tried watching it this morning, got about half way through and gave up.  The acting is just okay, but the story is just slow and boring.  I certainly wouldn’t call it a “war movie” as it isn’t presenting any grand overview of the battle.  It’s just a drama set during the war, and dramas should be, well, dramatic.  This plods along and you really don’t get interested in these people at all.  Bit of a fail in my opinion.

Most "war" movies are like that for two reasons:

1.  Placating women audiences.

2. Placating feminist males.

Let's face it; war movies-like this one-sell their "combat" scenes to placate a feminist society
