Steineded How sad is this?

Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic

StyleSk8r 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.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Bezenby There's a lot to hate about this film. It's cheap, there's too much bad CGI, the director is obviously a big fan of Tarantino style post modernism, but then again, there's a lot of action, and the film most definitely is tongue in cheek. People reviewing this have scoffed at the girl with a camera jammed between her boobs, squeezing them together to get a picture. Here's a thought: It was probably a joke to begin with.What you have is four GIs sent over to Europe to rescue an undercover agent who's there to spy on some Nazi occult goings on. There's the ex-priest, the good guy, the redneck racist and the Ghost Dog style black GI with a samurai sword. They all make their way to the Nazi base, where Claudia, the undercover agent, is working.This film (including the soundtrack) is a huge homage to seventies and eighties films (but not Nazisploitation films as noted by another reviewer). Someone else here thought the 'girl on a bike' effect was hilarious but it's a clear copy of Tarantino's same thing from Pulp Fiction.And that's the problem with the film: There's too much by way of Tarantino's 'Grindhouse' influences, with the ageing of the film and such like. But then again, no one bores you for twenty minutes with a soliloquy about black widow spiders (I hate that crap!).Then again, the soundtrack is spot on, with it sounding like a mix of Ennio Morricone and Tangerine Dream. I choose to accept there's a huge amount of irony in this film, and kind of enjoyed it (I'm beginning to think even the CGI was used ironically).Maybe I'm just in a good mood. Watch it or not, I don't care.

zardoz-13 I bought this straight-to-video release at Walmart with extremely low expectations. Everywhere on line rookie writer & director Eli Dorsey's abysmal World War II thriller goes under the title "Devils of War." "Devils of War" sounds better than the generic title "101st: A-Company." Actually, this movie combines elements of warfare and devil worship. This utterly preposterous 75-minute combat epic is so hideously awful that it is hilarious. The action occurs in Nazi occupied Poland in 1944. President Roosevelt assembles three elite American soldiers and inserts them behind enemy lines to storm a castle and extract an undercover agent. As it turns out, the maniacal Nazis are conducting Satanic experiments using the blood of virgins to conjure up an army of indestructible demons. William Baldy,a.k.a. The Chaplin (Jerry L. Buxbaum), Adam Wald (Lawrence Anthony) and Herman 'Black Hercules' Jackson (first-time actor Jamin Watson)are flown in but their aircraft is shot down. They run afoul of German patrols and engage in one firefight after another until they rendezvous with their buxom agent, Claudia Klum (Carly Kingston), whose claim to fame is her big boobs, hides the camera between. When she squeezes her breasts together, the camera takes pictures. The actor who plays FDR looks nothing like Roosevelt, while most of the actors and actresses have a difficult time making you believe that they are the genuine articles. There is a quasi-"Where Eagles Dare" vibe going on in this crisp opus. The production values are far from opulent, but the film works until the occult elements are shown. Meanwhile, the firefights in the forest look tolerable, and some of the back projection is okay.

Theo Robertson This reminded me of the SyFy Channel production REIGN OF THE GARGOYLES which is one of the companies better films even though it's only very average entertainment at best . I should at this point apologise to everyone involved in GARGOYLES because within a minute I realised I was watching something infinitely and painfully worse than anything SyFy could produce The premise of the story involves an American special forces team being dropped in to Poland in 1944 where they are to stop a secret Nazi plan . The plan is that the Nazis are trying to raise a demonic army from Hell to win the war . Yeah okay it's not a realistic storyline and as you know the SyFy Channel sometimes do this type of movie . DEVILS OF WAR perhaps charitably is trying to emulate Italian exploitation movies of the 1970s such as SS EXPERIMENT LOVE CAMP but can't equal grade Z garbage never mind improve on it Everything about this movie is dreadful . If it's trying to be a Tarintinoesque post modernist movie the only homage it gets right is the soundtrack which emulates spaghetti westerns . Everything else is dire and not in a so bad it's entertaining mode . I almost had fun in a 100 things I learned from this movie : One silicon breast implants were very common in Nazi Germany but felt the will to live leave before I learned of a second thing . War is Hell ? So is this movie

supernick You'll want to stay clear of this movie. I'll sum up other weak points: 1. the so-called action scenes. You see a lot of soldiers moving and shooting, and for some strange reason they miss a lot. And I mean a lot, regardless of the weapons provided to them. 2. the main characters are thoroughly stereotyped, though I admit the actors give it their best with the crappy script they are given. By this I mean only the 3 main actors. Whatever is in the German camp needs to get a reality check. 3. the devil touch. Sure, the Nazis were into the occult, but even after stretching my imagination, I can't for the life of me understand why these devils are so lame, and why it takes some long-haired dude with crappy Latin to evoke them. 4. pray that you don't speak German. The accent is thick and the dialogues are short and/or meaningless. I've seen this before, where it seems that these actors get paid by the number of words they're allowed to utter. Same goes for the Polish girl in the movie. 5. not that it would save anything, but they could have had the decency to choose some better looking women and not make-up artists. That works in more than one movie in this genre, at least to some extent.Look, I fastforwarded through the action scenes, and then I felt sorry for listening to the dialogue scenes. I watch movies all the time, high budget to no budget, but this one really was too difficult for me. A 2 out of 10 please, or a 3 for trying.
