If it is the worst war movie that you have ever seen, then you haven’t seen many war movies, including the dumping on us of tons of Vietnam movies that none of us can even name and the large number of bombs from the recent wars, and countless B films about WWII.
Perhaps you can share the realism of 95% of any war films, especially Vietnam and the Indian fighting wars.
Would you then be appeased if I backed off of “worst” and simply labeled it an absolutely horrid, unwatchable, butchering of a WWII battle, with no redeeming qualities?
Perhaps it’s time for you to share what you liked about it.
Of all the horrible war movies, why do I so dislike this one?
Probably because I expected so much more. I was about 10 when I first saw it and had read many books on WWII and specifically on the Battle of the Bulge. Men I knew had told me about it.
I was so disappointed when I saw it. It wasn’t about the battle, nor really WWII at all. Just an odd conglomeration of tanks and dialogue.
So, it’s the worst, because it was the first such movie to really disappoint me. I had already seen Patton, Tora, Tora, Tora, and the Longest Day. By comparison it was horrid. And when you get a 1 star from a 10 year old, you are going to still own it when that kid turns 50.
