3 Days in Malay

The title says it all. A one star general, inside, wearing a helmet with a chin strap...and a cinched waist on his BDUs. Say what? What a lame excuse for a tribute to the men who experienced those three days in Malay. The characters were one dimensional caricatures, GI Joe figures staged beyond the realm of credibility. I have been watching war flicks for 60 years and my "embrace the suck" meter pegged out on this peace of tripe. Rotten Tomatoes gave this film a 91%. I'm gobsmacked. The set staging looked, uh, staged. I am loath to find anything to recommend watching this production. A handle bar mustache is hard to imagine as a reasonable sight in any combat theater. The list can go on ad nauseam, but I won't lest my comments loose their punch.

Based on a true story. I dont think so First the title. Malay is a language not a country.

All the fighting in Malaya which i assume this is what they were meaning involved only British and Commonwealth troops There were no Americans involved not that that has ever stopped Hollywood before.

Lets face it large numbers of people out there who nelieve that hollywood movies are real history Saying it was based on a true story is a insult to all the allied troops incolved in the war in the far east. All i can say is don't waste your time on this rubbish There are far better films out there to watch.

Go into the street, find the filthiest beggar, and get spit in the face. This will more worthwile than watching this garbage.

I guess someone really wanted a paid vacation in Thailand, got himself a ChatGPT script, and somehow found some chumps to invest in a fake movie.

I'm ashamed to say I sat through this whole insult to humanity, but here's a few details:

• dialogue is abysmal and nonsensical
• all the "japanese" are clearly from southeast asia.

• peasants from southeast asia saunter through a battlefield that's not even on the same continent
• the machine guns are made of rubber, you can actually see the barrels flexing.

• acting is... just... just stop

Utter trash.

Even I know as a civilian that you DO NOT graduate top class from West Point only to become a sergeant that berates a General! And why do they keep referring to him as (Sir) when he's not even an officer!!?? This amateur-hour "movie" will make you cringe with the cheesy/cliche dialogue. The American accents are terrible! Especially from the guy claiming to be from New York. And having Privates that are 50 years old? Please, if that were the case, those guys would have been hardened WWI veterans! I could go on and on... You should definitely watch this movie if you are up to having your intelligence insulted.

Everything about this movie is wrong. In just the first few minutes there were so many historical inaccuracies that saying the story is set in WWII is outrageous. The dialogue, the uniforms, the weapons, the equipment are glaringly anachronistic. The movie isn't interesting, exciting, or watchable. It isn't even tolerable. The acting is embarrassingly bad. Why was this movie even made? It is nothing but a waste of time. I only wish I had looked up some reviews before I decided to sit down and suffer through the first half hour of horror. I couldn't take anymore. I just could not. I could only take so much punishment.
