Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.
Hottoceame The Age of Commercialism
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Josue Jerez Rivera I think this is a good movie The story is very good but it's a low budget movie, meaning poor images and scenery. The lighting is just awful.But acting is pretty good, so is the story and ideas, if you watch this film just for the plot, it will catch your attention.I would re-make this film with Spielberg directing it, making this a 2-hour movie. And of course, enough budget, according to Spielberg's movies.If you like war movies and don't have anything else to see, watch this, but you are warned: very low budget film.
will-leitch I'm not surprised Amazon allow you to watch this for nothing. That's because it's terrible. Really wooden acting in the first thirty minutes, terrible long stretches of uninteresting dialogue where genuinely nothing whatsoever seems to happen.The scene where a soldier allegedly visits the English home of his girlfriend is, quite frankly, laughable. If you really had found a house and interior looking like that in 1944 England, the owner would most probably have been related to the King. Churchill would've been jealous. Once they jump it doesn't pick up. What a pity - I had hoped for better. I suspect there may just have been some military expertise connected with the making of this film but sadly no screen writing expertise at all.Plot spoilers aren't allowed. But the Allies win.
Claudio Carvalho Three companies of paratroopers travel in a deadly mission to France to prepare the drop zone for the airborne attack on the D-Day. They have to install an Eureka transmitter and searchlight to guide the planes in the Normandy invasion."Pathfinders: In the Company of Strangers" is a dreadful and lame war movie – maybe the worst I have ever seen. The "untold and lost story" is disrespectful with the true Normandy invasion and the screenplay is awful without character development and poor dialogs. The direction is also awful with permanent close up camera and terrible soundtrack of machine gun all the time. The acting is ridiculously amateurish. The "battle scenes" are so fake and there is one particularly corny scene, when the German soldier throws a grenade in the trench, one paratrooper shows it to the others and uses his body to contain the explosion instead of throwing it back. My vote is two.Title (Brazil): "Desbravadores: Na Companhia de Estranhos" ("Pathfinders: In the Company of Strangers")
james-ross-822-974923 This 'film' moved like frozen syrup. Poor acting, unnecessary..........pauses for dramatic effect. Dialogue which made no attempt to move the plot forward and enough close ups that I now have to visit my optometrist. I could only bear about forty five or so minutes and that was with the aid of a fast forward button. Could either side have shown any emotion, you know, with them being in life and death situations and all? As for historical accuracy I'm pretty sure I saw a laptop on a desk in the briefing room, it wouldn't have surprised me. This movie made me sorry the allies won the war, perhaps then it would not have been made. My only saving grace is that it was the 'the free one' on the tail end of a rent one get one free new release coupon!
