D-Day: Battle of Omaha Beach

If you can sit through 30 minutes of this film you are a hero in yourown right. It is total tripe and looks more like a village drama group got the roles in it. It the opening credits they show Marines landing on a sandy beach, it is actully one of the Islands Japan held.

When an army colonel starts giving orders aboard a Navy ship, AND manning anti aircraft guns, AND shooting down Luftwaffe planes, AND shooting 5 inch guns for pinpoint accurate fire support WITHOUT aiming...well there's no.point in nitpicking inaccurate historical details, is there? I also liked the scene where the 2 sergeants are having a smoke while standing over the body of their dead buddy, and the conversation turns toward comparing their fathers, and their grades in school. This while the rest of the platoon is still searching the rest of the farm for the big guns they're supposed to destroy. This movie was like a cake that never rose.

Second worst movie I have ever seen. Had to stop 4 times. NO military advisor which is evident. Colonel wears a Majors insignia throughout movie. "HooRaa" was NEVER said in WWII. Grenade blows bunker, kills all inside but no damage to the room. Looks to have about 5 Sargents in a 12 man company??? Only "sergeants" aparently get stripes. Patches are improperly placed and half falling off. BAR not shooting 30-06. "Colonel"s 1911 and a B AR has plugged barrels. Some times guns eject casings, other times nothing.>?? One more "HooRaah" and I was going to turn it off. ....and ... there it was. In between bunkers the "Colonel" is screaming orders to everyone. He would give orders to the multitude of Sargents and THEY would pass on the orders. Then they go and send a couple Sgtss off as a team. No, no, NO! Sgts. LEAD the lower ranks. Oh, they only have one Pvt. and one Cprl. I believe. Watch this movie only if you have absolutely NO idea what the military is. Otherwise, it will drive you nuts. Ugh!!

I love WWII films and have watched most all ever made - some excellent, some good, some not so good - but I have NEVER EVER watched as an amateurish a film as D-Day! Terrible CGs, bad acting, bad script, bad scenery, bad everything. Hoo-rah!

Many WWII Suckers like me will watch this film, and the movie will eventually make some $$$$$....

They spent most of the budget on snacks for the crew, low budget pitiful movie
