1. Quality

2. Summary

   OK 2.5

   An interesting look at a small group of American escaped prisoners who struggle through Germans and elements in the Ardennes to get back to Allied lines with invaluable information. Anyone familiar with the series “Band of Brothers” will enjoy this film, which was largely done in the same style designed to expose the personalities and motivations, as well as the battles themselves.

4. Acting

   Good 3.0

   No one really stood out from the others, I would say the entire cast did a good job of imparting drama but keeping a sense of realism.

5. Male Stars Good 3.0

6. Female Stars Good 3.0

7. Female Costars Good 3.0

8. Male Costars Good 3.0

10. Film

    OK 2.5

    The film style will be familiar to those who enjoyed Band of Brothers, and elements of Saving Private Ryan. They really love those wintertime Ardennes forest scenes and prerequisite slow-motion shots to the chest.
