Battle Over Britain (2023)
Utterly disgraceful
Filmed and produced on a budget of 10 shillings and 6 pence, this utter load of rubbish is a disgrace and a slap in the face of real WWII veterans who fought and died in the conflict. Actors who have no idea of period acting, aircraft straight out of an X-box game, the combat sequences are ridiculous and the use of a garden shed for a flight dispersal defies belief. Background extras walking about wearing odd bits of uniforms, the whole film is complete farce. How anyone can take this level of amateur filmmaking seriously is beyond belief, whoever rated this higher than 2 stars must have been watching something completely different.
This is not a film for watching, it's a film for bypassing and avoiding...
De slag om de Schelde (2020)
This film should be forgotten !!!
An absolute mixed up, mashup of history. This dog turd of a film gets it wrong from start to finish.
Operation Market Garden took place in September, the battles for the Scheldt Estuary and Walcheren Islands in November, this film tried to tell us they happened simultaneously which is WRONG !!!!
The CGI aircraft start out wonderfully, but then we see the aerial equivalent of the M25 at rush hour with C-47s, Halifax's, Spitfires and Horsa Gliders all within 15 feet of each other. Once again completely inaccurate and wrong.
While we are on the subject of Gliders, why don't any of the pilots have their glider pilots wings on either their Denison smocks or BD uniform ?? Simple mistakes which ruin films.
Why does the officer commanding the Glider pilot regiment have a 47 AOS on his Jeep ? That's a Royal Artillery AntiTank serial !!! Another simple mistake that's easily researched.
A Horsa glider heading to Arnhem with all of three soldiers in it ?? Great use of transport on a glider that carried 28 men....and all three of them are sergeants ??? Give me a break
Oh and if you loose half a wing on a Horsa, it becomes an UNCONTROLLABLE lawn dart...
Why does the hero's rifle change from a number 4 Enfield into a Number 1 Mk III and back several times during the film ??
Again simple continuity fixes crass mistakes like this.
And our hero after boating across numerous North Sea inlets is rescued by the Canadian Army and is immediately added into their ranks ??? WRONG !!!
Glider pilots were far too valuable to waste, and especially since he's just apparently "teleported" through two months of time to reach them.
You think perhaps he'd be sent back to the UK and debriefed properly ????
Nope he's sent on an immediate first world war style attack with a huge clump of Canadians (commanded by an officer of the British 52nd Lowland Division that was nowhere near that are in September) all in 1950's helmets and British BD trying to run up a narrow causeway in broad daylight without artillery support or smoke cover....
Don't waste your time watching this if you are a historian, you'll rip your hair out seeing these mistakes.
Flight World War II (2015)
Mish mash mess full of mistakes
Don't waste your time watching this.
Half arsed plot and more historical inaccuracies then any WWII film ever made. If they went back to France in 1940 why are the Germans flying ME262 jets which weren't invented till 1944 and what are the Brits doing in France considering they left the continent in a rush in May of 1940.
Weak plot, rotten SFX, 0 stars
