Come Out Fighting

I'm a big fan of some of the actors in this movie, like Michael Jai White and Tyrese Gibson. This movie has a few good points but many bad. But it's not the worst WWII movie I've seen. It does portray the stress of battle well, showing how Lt. Hayes is suffering from battle fatigue (PTSD) and how that can affect soldiers, and Hyram Murphy did a good job portraying that. Tyrese Gibson also did a good job portraying a tank commander who has seen too much. The movie did an okay job of showing how black soldiers faced prejudice during the war, such as white soldiers refusing to salute or doing so grudgingly, but I feel that could have been done better. Many of the battle scenes were poorly executed and the CGI effects, which would have been decent for the early 90s, are about unforgivable for 2022. Overall it was okay, but many moments left me groaning and asking "seriously?". There was obviously either a very poor military technical adviser or none at all, as many of the battle tactics and maneuvering were haphazard and sloppy. The story doesn't specify (or I missed it if it did) what month/year it took place, but unless it was mid-1944 or later, seeing the German ME-262 jet fighter would have not have been realistic. However, I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt and accept that the timing could have been correct for its appearance. Overall, I rated it a 5 because I liked the story, but this movie could have been executed much better with an experienced director and military technical adviser. Worth the watch? Honestly, I can't give a positive answer.

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.

Complete nonsense. The tiger would shoot them all like a shooting range. The Germans fought well. Ambushing tanks with mortars and heavy machine guns and not hitting a single vehicle is ridiculous and counterattacking with rifles is complete nonsense.

It's a pity that I can not put 0 or even -1. The agenda steers to the detriment of realism. Directing - 0, cameraman - 0, script - -5.

If you want to see real combat actions - see "Rescue of Private Raivn". And call a detachment of sappers to clear the mines in a combat situation and stand upright on open terrain with the whole team .. what were you smoking there when you came up with this dregs,)))

I am a s98ker for a good war movie. I even like to watch the lesser war movies, but there is a limit to how much stupidity I can stumach, before I give up and this movie crossed that line pretty quickly...

The bad: it's a war movie and I expect to see exciting fighting scenes. But although these fighting scenes are definitely meant to be taken seriously, they achieve the exact opposite.

It's hilarious to watch these soldiers fight. Really stupid and hilarious. I can forgive a few credibility flaws, but these fighting scenes are so incredibly dumb and silly that even a blind man wouldnt take it seriously.

Not any good? Dolph Lundgren is getting old, and this is NOT a Dolph Lundgren movie, because he is only starring in a small supporting role.

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.
