You know Ii quite liked the movie. As a former WW2 veteran of 99 years and six days I can speak with a bit more authority than most. Okay I was with the 7th (Territorial) Battalion of the Royal Norfolk Regiment which was attached to the 51st Highland Division of the British Expeditionary Force and fought in France at the outbreak of war until evacuated out from Dunkirk. Actually while under heavy attack the Division withdrew to another beach, St Valery-en-Caux, where they were to be collected. But no boats came to meet us, nor was there food or ammunition. After two harrowing nights the Division was forced to surrender. Just 31 of us from the 7th Battalion of managed to get to England. We stole a drifting fishing boat, patched the leaks with used long handled mning shovels for oar to row ourselves home. The German party in the film advanced much the same way as the German forces did at first. Certainly during our retreat through Belgium. Sadly I tried to keep score of the number I killed. I am ashamed now but then I thought I was a hero. Such a tragic waste of life following nationalism.

Who would win? The Wehrmacht, or the Galactic Empire's stormtroopers? It would be a very long fight, since neither can shoot. I guess they would run out of bullets eventually, then it would be finished by a big fist fight (the germans had some melee weapons, while the stormtroopers have armor, but considering that even stone axes can penetrate it, I think that doesn't really matter). But the stormtroopers are still americans, and the germans suck in melee fights against americans (as everybody else does, at least in movies).

[@foreverblueclassics]

All well and true. Except there are no Americans in this movie. They are French Colonial troops from Algeria and Morocco :-)

[@nialencapefet5154]

Yes, in this case, they are not americans, the protagonists can be switched to polish rebels, russian soldiers, communist partizans, or to anything you like. It just sucks how every movie portrays the german army as a group of very well equipped, very well dressed, but totally incompetent bunch of idiots. Not because I have any love for the Third Reich, just because it's so unrealistic. I can't imagine that any group of soldiers (or any group of humans if at least one has a brain) would march into an abandoned, destroyed town in the middle of a warzone without sending scouts, moving to cover, or at the very least not standing together for an even easier shot for snipers. They weren't even checking the buildings, the most obvious hiding place for the enemy. It's just make all these movies stupid. Movie makers really suck when they have to create minion-level enemies. In melee combat, they basically can't block, their swings open up almost everything on them, their armor is made from paper, and if they have a shield, they won't raise it up. In modern combat, they just run forward to be shot, when they shoot, they never hit anything, and they basically have less strategy than a group of kids with water guns. And if they are in melee combat, they die/faze from the first punch/kick. And if they want to paint a picture about a small group of heroes fending off an army, they shouldn't create an army as dangerous as a group of blind chickens.

[@lesvosla2593]

If you want an entertaining WW2 movie and you don't cheer for the Axis, you do such things. God forbid you otherwise might get the impression that the enemy isn't evil incarnate. In reality, if four generic Algerian soldiers were about to stop 30+ Wehrmacht troopers, the movie would have been over in about 5 minutes with at least 3,5 minutes of hide and seek, one minute of leaded ballet and 30 seconds of dying and suffering. Doesn't make for a good movie, I guess.

My thoughts exactly

[@sunboy2488]

My great grandfather was from east Africa and served in the British navy from the age of 15. When WW2 broke out, he had already left the navy which he was too old to re-join in his thirties. Instead, he was accepted in the British army in Egypt. Because of his language skills, he was part of reconnaissance and snatch squad that went behind enemy lines. The tactics developed by colonial soldiers who fought on behalf of the crown was adopted the predecessors of the SAS along with the Landrover type technical vehicles they used.

I remember watching this film, I thought it was very good, watching it you really felt for the characters, the soldiers where Algerians fighting for france, and after the war the survivors had a hard time claiming a soldiers pension from the French government, I think it was eventually paid, but as we know country's do not mind soldiers getting killed but toss the survivors on the scrap heap when the fighting is finished.

[@foreverblueclassics]

It's a movie that splits opinions on here (as you can tell from some of the comments!) but I agree, it was very good. Sadly a lot of the comments come from people who have not seen the whole movie and base it on this clip, and the so-called invincibility of German soldiers who apparently never made any mistakes (yet somehow lost the war!). The movie as you say is more about the poor treatment of the Algerian and Moroccan soldiers by their French comrades and how they were betrayed at the end of the war. Thank you for a great comment!

My Great Uncle was a captain in the war and was a beach master on Omaha. He went in before the first wave in the attack. He directed the landing on that beach and helped soldiers out of the boats. He was one of the first American soldiers to land in France that day. He also helped land General Patton in the invasion of Sicily and Salerno. He also served in North Africa. On Omaha, he was standing under heavy German fire. Somehow he made it out alive that day. He later served in the Korean War. He served in the Army in WW2, the Coast Guard in Korea, and then served in the Marine Corps, and Navy. He went to VMI and graduated at age 22 and was 35 in 44. After the war, he became a sheriff.

for those who are asking why the guy with the p38 has suddenly super aiming capacity it's just beacause the actor who's plaing him (he's call Jamel Debouze btw) has a train accident during his childhood and lost one of his arms so during all this movie they managed to not make him not do anything that need both arms exept for this part where a p38 thet we never saw before seems to have teleported hitself on his belt for the final fight so he can shot it instead of the springfield 1903 that he was sling-carrying since the beggining of the movie. btw this movie show very well how poorly equiped the french army was at the time:none of them has a standard issue rifle: the corrporal has a MAS 36 the marksman has a scoped kar 98 and the guy with british helmet has a tommy gun.

[@llokkee]

This is actually a decent movie that had political ramifications for the Algerian veterans of WW2 who fought for the French. Up until this movie was made in the early 2000s they weren't entitled to the same benefits as French veterans. Most lived in abject poverty and those who survived by the time this movie came out ended up receiving not only the pensions they were entitled to, but proper recognition for their 'service'. These men were promised independence from the French if they fought for them. France has a lot of racism towards the Arabs because of their colonial past. It wasn't long after WW2 that the Algerian people rose up in defiance towards their French overlords ( the Vietnamese were their inspiration in some regards who were also at that time fighting the French for independence ) That all aside, what bugs me about movies like this is how they show a complete lack of regard or understanding of basic infantry tactics. I mean, if ur gonna make a war movie, then at least have some fucking military consultants. The way the Germans entered this village and subsequently fought is completely inaccurate. Even if they were green troops ( and by the looks of them they were anything but ) they would most certainly have had at least a veteran sergeant in the group, who would know never to walk down an empty street, epsecially bunching up like that, they're just asking for a nade in the face. If theres one thing the Germans learned from the Soviets, it was the art of urban combat and by this stage of the war, they too were masters of it. This entire scene makes no sense at all, however good it 'looks'. .
