This film was made and released after Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers so I hoped it would be similar. In fact it was awesome.
It is set in Dec 1944 and details the US Prisoners (POW's) battle for survial after the Germam army's counter offensive in the Ardennes Forest, in Belgium.
Many Allied soldiers are captured during the counter offensive and a small band of American soldiers manage to escape. However they no longer have any weapons or food, ravaged by the cold, the men are determined to make it back to their own frontline. But as their perilous journey takes its toll, loyalties become divided and lives hang in the balance.
A mesmerising, hallucinatory journey thorough the hellish landscape of war ravaged Europe,based on real life events this film tells the story of ordinary men and the mission that made them heroes.
The film is 86 mins
A must see war film.
