I watched this movie thinking it was based on real events but not, this movie is a joke, lot of mistake and bad actors. Pay attention to the scene where the lady finds the note... hilarious... could not be worse. Also, too many guards in the facility... sometimes one guard to deal with the priosioners... it looks like a B movie style

If you love war flicks, this is a great one! I think the other reviewers are more for movies like forrest gump or something.. cause this was great and had a cool plot twist near the end. enjoy!

Its very low budget. Story is so cliché .Low quality acting. But he.. Nice try. Next time better

The film looks very promising at first, but when we realize we are facing a weak story, with a badly tied ending. Don't have high expectations when watching the movie.

Horrible acting, weak plot, etc. Don't waste your time.

Danny Finnegan, (played by Sam Gittins), is an accomplished British boxer, finding himself retreating from the advancing Germans near Dunkirk. He is captured and a German SS Officer identifies him and pits him in the boxing ring against an equally talent German boxer. The POW's use the cover of the boxing ring to stage an escape. Where do I start? This movie is so bad !! Low budget movies do not need to be so bad. While I think Sam Gittins played his role convincingly well, the other actors around him that gave poor performances were a major distraction. As a military historian and military gun collector, I spotted numerous flaws quickly in the first few minutes of the movie. The story line was good, albeit that such events would not have actually happened in reality during the German advance on Dunkirk. The uniforms? OMG... At least the British uniforms looked authentic. The German uniforms looked much more like they came from a costume store for dress up parties. Close ups on the German helmets were a dead give away as being plastic. The leading German SS Officer would never have worn such an unkempt uniform, His cap looked like he had sat on it. I found the first 20 minutes or so into the start of the movie very slow and unconvincing. Putting the inaccuracies aside, the story began to flow and I was able to struggle through to the end of the movie. The Germans soldiers speaking actual German language with very strong British accents in their speech was distracting. Obviously Englishmen speaking German, that they may have spoken for the first time while rehearsing their scripts. Hand held cameras again !! H.H. cameras are good for dramatizing being jostled in a crowd or attempting to simulate the view of one of the characters, but this hand held camera being held very unsteady in what should have been fixed camera scenes made this movie look very amateur. Gun fire from the incredibly loud British Enfield .303 in this movie gave out the same decibels and tone of a paintball gun at higher volume. Audio track of gun fire and poor CGI were totally out of whack. And amazingly, none of the firearms in this movie gave any recoil at all!!. Overall, not a bad story line and plot, as historically inaccurate as it is,; but the bad acting, inaccuracies, costumes, CGI and camera work left this movie severely wanting. This is a very low end B grade movie, if not hitting C grade. I would give it a 2.5 rating, but gave it a 3 as I could not go halfway between 2 and 3 on IMDB ratings.

This was so bad that i had to make an account to save other people from watching this

One of the worst movies I've ever wasted my time on. Ludicrous plot and so historically inaccurate that the film should be listed as a spoof. Oh and the 'combat' scenes, they use Denex replicas, no better than toys and uniforms that are best categorised as fancy dress.

Bad acting, and bad plot. Not worth the money or time.

Others have mentioned the writing, acting and plot. I'll add my comments about the production values. The British troops are wearing post-war equipment, which most people wouldn't notice or care about. But why on earth wouldn't they get the actors to at least mime the recoil of the rifles when they're shooting? Combined with the poor sound effects, it looks like they are playing Airsoft and there is no willing suspension of disbelief on the part of the viewer. The German uniforms were a joke, SS men wearing the black party uniform, others wearing odd mixtures of Army insignia on their helmets. Ten seconds of research would have permitted them to correct that. The civilian costuming was equally unconvincing, looks like the costumer went to a thrift shop in hopes of finding something "old looking." Too much of this just pulls you out of the story. Besides, the war movie sports scene has been done so much better so many times already - soccer in Boys in Company C, soccer again in Victory with Sly Stallone and Max von Sydow, football in the M*A*S*H feature film.
