Sahara (I) (1943)
4/10
Bad propaganda movie
23 March 2014
Warning: Spoilers
I relied on the glowing mark attributed to this movie on IMDb and wasted an hour and a half watching this predictable propaganda movie.

The Germans are dumb or devious caricatural Nazis. The Italian a nice chap who would have liked to be an American. The American sergeant (in Libya in 1943!?) commands the vassals of the US, even a British officer, superior to him in rank.

I really could not understand how the Germans could not outflank the small Bogart crew but insisted on frontal attacks. I couldn't quite get either where Bogart was getting his fuel for his gas-guzzling antiquated tank. There is never any suspense or subtle portraits.

Only for unconditional patriotic Americans or Bogart fans.
