Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesConor Quinlan, who plays P.J. in the movie, is the real-life grandson of Commandant Pat Quinlan, one of the main characters in the movie. Conor (as P.J.) gets to utter the line, "Quinlan doesn't know what he's doing. He's going to get us killed."
- GaffesWhen Commandant Quinlan is shot in the shoulder, the soldier who shot him is firing an M1898 Mauser. This rifle is chambered for the powerful 8x57mm cartridge which would have punched right through Quinlan at the implied range of 150-250 yards. Further, when the round is removed from Quinlan's shoulder and dropped in the dish, it is clearly not a 8x57mm round. In fact, it doesn't look like a rifle round at all...it looks like a larger caliber pistol round.

Commentaire à la une
What a movie, came out of nowhere and was sitting on my list for a long time before i downloaded for a flight due to lack of anything else to watch. Seems Netflix has a promising future in the movie department now too.
Draws understandable comparisons with Zulu, but the real shame is behind the true story here and the reason why it's not a widely known about event.
Ignoring the real events (which were incredible and worth further research) the movie really stands on its own as a thoroughly entertaining war film. Tensions builds nicely and results in a whole load of impressive action sequences.
Credit to Dornan who is unfortunately going to be more known for the whole 50 shades nonsense, hopefully once he gets past that he wont be held back on more decent roles.
