Von Ryan's Express
Good 5 Points 1965

Frank Sinatra stars as Col. Joseph Ryan, an American Army Air Corp pilot in WWII who is shot down in Italy and taken as a prisoner of war in the film Von Ryan’s Express. Although known for his golden voice, he refrains from singing in this action flick, instead flexing his considerable acting …

War Pigs
Good 17 Points 2015

While War Pigs is nothing spectacular, this fairly typical WWII film holds its own with other B players of the genre. Dolph Lundren an Mickey Rourke add some star power and the writers don’t copy old ideas too obviously.

When Trumpets Fade
Very Good 17 Points 1998

This made for TV movie follows a reluctant squad leader (the recognizable Ron Eldard) as he is spurred in to using his great instincts during the Nov. 1944 Battle of Hurtgen Forest as the allies pushed deeper in to Germany. The movie is intense, bloody, and highlights the greatest generation’s …

Perfect 13 Points 1968

WWII in HD
Really Great 17 Points 2009

It is unbelievable that so much quality color footage of WWII was found by the producers of ‘WWII in HD’. The outcome is fantastically revealing footage of life in and out of the combat zone. And be warned: just because it is old footage doesn’t mean it is mild. Instead, you are sometimes expose…

X-Men: First Class
Great 83 Points 2011

First class prequels are Hollywood mutants, crisply intelligent rather than trite – obligatory touchstones notwithstanding. X-Men: First Class surpasses that standard, rebooting a tired saga with fresh casting, well grounded plot devices and an engaging mix of resonant themes.
