General Dwight Eisenhower was 54 years old in 1944, yet the Captain in this is 59. Sure, he doesn't look it but come on, you couldn't find an age-appropriate actor to play the captain? As others have pointed out, the scenery is wrong, the uniforms are wrong, the armor is wrong.

I got this for my birthday and thank the lord it was only 5 or ten dollars. On the case it looks interesting but it has neither a Panzer 3 or an easy eight. Poor acting, okish uniforms (don't know uniforms), the environment looks like my back yard in most cases and areas I've been (in SC USA). Honestly if it had cost more than 10 dollars I'd pay the person back as the box looks very neat and very well put together however if it had lived up to it I wouldn't be here I would be enjoying it.

Of course glorifying the US army and having the Germans behaving stupid. stupid and unrealistic war movie.

I am a Vietnam era vet that loves WWII movies. This is as bad as it gets. There were no WACs serving in Northern France in the fall of 1944. The women had very inappropriate hair styles. There were no German vehicles in the movie. Some of the men had long hair. The weapons were wrong. Horrible.

I'm not sure how small the budget was for this but the producers could have gone to a local VFW and at least found someone to volunteer as a military technical liaison. This way the producers would have at least had some semblance of rank knowledge. Throughout the first 15 minutes of the movie they have 2nd Lieutenants giving orders to 1st Lieutenants. They must have felt that a gold bar is superior to a silver bar. Completely unaware that a Butter Bar (2nd Lieutenant with a gold bar) is the lowest rank officer for the Army and Air Force. Warrant officers not withstanding. The 2nd Lt nurse giving orders to the 1st Lt nurse was pretty bad. The infantrymen saluting the 2nd Lt outside in a war zone. Seriously? WWII Jeeps with a one piece windshield? Never happened, not available on CJ-3A\B until the early 1950's. I couldn't get past these discrepancies and quit watching about the 20 minute mark. Had to find something more riveting to watch, like the Westminster Dog Show.

Now and again you get a film which is so bad it is laughable, this one was so bad I was not even laughing. This obviously never made the cinema or there would have been riots at the box office with punters demanding refunds. This was free on Sky and I still feel robbed, this was a really listless film, the actors looked utterly bored with the absurd script, a few spoilers, all films you must suspend logic but when a film goes over the line it becomes nonsense this supplies in buckets. When your returning to the American line like your on a tour of local vineyards you don't have the sense to take off the huge swastika? the Germans have enough time to set up what looks like a holiday camp and then the boxing match, give me strength. Then the "kid" when he strangles the fattest soldier to ever exist. Feel sorry for the actors as I suppose a job is a job. Boring, no pace the two girls must have been to the zombie school of acting with their total lack of emotion. Avoid, avoid, avoid.

So I'm going to give it a 2. Hey, maybe it gets better after the 8 minute mark. I'm going to keep this as short as possible to save you and me time. If you are the type of person that demands verisimilitude in any piece of historical fiction don't let yourself be tempted to watch "The Last Rescue". Nothing looks or feels right, the vehicles, the tanks, the uniforms, the locales, the dialogue. This movie is a mess. (Speaking in terms of historical accuracy) If you're anything like me and just pick apart every inaccuracy and end up spending more time counting the anachronisms than enjoying a less than mediocre piece of historical fiction do youself a favor and don't bother.

A good war drama - NOT jampacked action. Don't be mislead by the poster. It follows a young soldier and his comrades as they try to get to safety in the final months of WWII in France. The presence of the army nurses made this different, and the character introspection made it a heartfelt story that I appreciated. I felt for the characters and their struggles. Pretty good WWII story.
