646f9e108c The end of WW2. Allied forces enter a well-guarded German rocket base and kidnap among others the rocket scientist Dr. Von Heinken. When they try to get away they are followed both by Germans and Russians who both want to get their hands on the doctor. Probably one of the worst WWII action movies ever made…<br/><br/>Plot is minimal; characterization non-existent. Most of the movie seems to consist of two groups of men, both dressed in German uniforms, shooting each other with sub-machine guns.<br/><br/>The attack by Mosquito fighter-bombers seems to be footage lifted from the movie &quot;633 Squadron&quot;. The Norwegian fjord looks awfully familiar, and so do some of the German anti-aircraft gunners.<br/><br/>Whitman,leading man, is mind-numbingly uninspiring… like a poor man&#39;s Ronald Regan, only worse.<br/><br/>Avoid at all costs… The plot is completely implausible in so many ways, just a few points:<br/><br/>* How do the Soviet tanks get through the German lines and drive around unmolested in what is presumably still German held territory?<br/><br/>* Why would the Germans set up a complicated ambush with less than 5 men in the small town instead of doing it with proper force?<br/><br/>* Why do both the Brit and American soldiers have a penchant for jumping out of cover so the Germans can kill them? And they do get killed. They are all supposed to be special forces, I&#39;d think they would have been through basic training at least …<br/><br/>* The commander of the British unit is said to be a major and his second in command to be a lieutenant. But they are both wearing Waffen-SS obersturmführer insignia. It would be rather suspicious that two officers of the same rank are commanding a unit. But no problem … the major gets himself killed very quickly using the standard method of leaving cover to step in the way of German bullets.<br/><br/>* I pointed out elsewhere that the at the beginning of the movie the narrator explains that OSS officer is posinga Wehrmacht Major. A bit later he and his team is exposed and the entire team (except him) are wiped out. Well, no wonder. If he is posinga Wehrmacht Major then perhaps he should not be wearing the uniform and rank insignia of a Waffen-SS obersturmführer (army equivalent rank is oberleutnant, or first-lieutenant).<br/><br/>* Points for getting the insignia and shoulder boards right for both the Soviet major and the German Waffen-SS Sturmbannführer (now that is actually a major).<br/><br/>* I have no idea what those tanks are that the Soviets are using, but they certainly are not Soviet tanks; neither are they WW2 era tanks. Also, the red stars are in the wrong place: on the glacis (the front); they should be on both sides of the turret.<br/><br/>* I have no idea what those tanks are that the Americans are using, but they certainly are not Shermans or any other US WW2 era tanks.<br/><br/>* In 1945, under no circumstances would US line units have fired on Soviet tanks (not even &quot;near-misses&quot;); probably would not have called them reds either. They were allies, comrades-in-arms. Just look at some photos of the link up at the Elbe river. The opinions of their higher ranking officers (e.g., Patton) may have been a different story…
I actually already watch this movie before. Can someone give me good suggestions for adventurous movies and I also prefer science fiction movies too? I’m absolutely satisfied Hostsailor with this website says they’re providing very beautiful and nice movies here.
I have heard a lot about this movie The last escape and really want to watch this one. So glad to see the download link clipping path service of the movie over here. Good quality links are provided here and i will definitely download it as early as possible.
