Come Out Fighting

First and foremost, it feels like this movie was directed and produced by a 4-year-old. With that in mind, be prepared for an agonizing cinematic experience that will leave you yearning for the sweet release of a ceasefire.

From the moment the opening credits roll, it becomes apparent that the filmmakers have absolutely no understanding of the art of war or the essence of a compelling narrative. If one can even call it that, the plot is a jumbled mess of clichés and nonsensical sequences that fail to form a coherent whole.

The characters are one-dimensional caricatures devoid of any depth or meaningful development. Their interactions are stilted and devoid of emotional resonance, leaving the audience disconnected and apathetic toward their fates. The script is not worthy of being played in a high school drama; it made talented actors like Tyrese Gibson, Michael Jai White, and Dolph Lundgren (who are great actors) look like comedy skit makers.

The action sequences, supposedly the film's saving grace, are a disorienting mishmash of shaky camerawork and incomprehensible editing. It's as if the filmmakers strapped cameras to a group of drunken monkeys and let them loose on the battlefield. The result is a chaotic and headache-inducing visual assault that leaves the viewer disoriented and utterly unengaged.

Even the production values, or lack thereof, contribute to the film's unmitigated disaster. The sets are uninspired and cheaply constructed, while the special effects are laughably amateurish. The sound design is a cacophony of misplaced explosions and exaggerated gunfire, further adding to the overall assault on the senses.

This movie is a cinematic debacle that fails on every conceivable level. It insults the intelligence of its audience, tarnishes the reputation of war films, and should serve as a cautionary tale for aspiring filmmakers. Save your time, your money, and your sanity by avoiding this cinematic atrocity at all costs.

I wish I could give this a minus 10-star rating. Even movies made in the 40s make more sense than this. What a waste of my precious time. I would only recommend this movie to those contemplating assisted suicide as a means of escaping this world.

First of all, there is the basic premise: that there are two types of soldiers.

One type of soldier is always competent and effective. The other type is not only always bumbling and incompetent, but arrogant, nasty and mean-spirited to boot.

Then there is the glaring incorrect portrayals of military protocol and tactics.

In this film, officers routinely salute non-coms and hold the salute until the non-coms return it, not the other way round which is reality.

It depicts an Army without coordination of infantry, armor and artillery. In one scene, artillery and forward armor are both firing on the same position simultaneously while forward motorized infantry are engaging that target in close quarters battle. Insane.

And then there is the decision to have German characters speaking English with German accents. Reminded me of Inspector Clouseau in the Pink Panther series.

The acting is not terrible but the dialog is amateurish.

It is just an all around bad movie.

How did this get made?

I wish I knew people that are okay seeing piles of their money set on fire.

They spent a lot of money on some things. Not terrible CGI dog fighting, physical US and German tanks moving around a battle field, hundreds of small arms, uniforms, and a half dozen B actors.

And spent zero dollars on other things, like writers, military advisors, directors, cinematographers, editors, etc...how?

Like when a truly gifted film maker gets his hands on a microscopic budget, they can make something compelling.

You give a child with zero self awareness a bucket of money, they have people throwing hand grenades at a mortar team 200 yards away. Or tanks that stop moving once they are fired upon.

Where were the adults?

This movie Come Out Fighting is a disgrace to the Black soldiers in which this movie is loosely based! First off this movie suffers from a white savior complex from the White actors listed ahead of the Black actors much like the movie glory! The movie was written and directed by a white Director which by itself is not the main problem with the movie but explains a lot. The 761 Tank battalion also known as the Original Black Panthers of the United States Army was a separate Tank battalion consisting of Black Soldiers. The 761 Tank Battalion had numerous exploits that the director could have used for his movie but chose to dishonor these heroic soldiers with a badly written script. The Black Actors through no fault of their own did the best they could with the weak script given to them. Hollywood deserves to give the Black Soldiers of the 761 Tank battalion a big budget movie so the world can give them the praise they deserved!

The storyline is typical, 'rescue your commanding officer from behind enemy lines'. The acting for the most part was terrible. The use of CGI, special effects were abysmal. And they portrayed the Germans as very inept. If I didn't pay $6 to rent off Fandango I would have turned it off. I suppose the makers of this film rented the vehicles used from collectors or museums, none seemed destroyed during the fight scenes. Just sparks and puffs of smoke when impacted by bazookas or artillery. No field officers could read a map. It was a sadly made movie. I gave it 4 stars only because I like WWII movies.
