I’m amazed at how many reviews really knocked this awesome film around ! I may not be a war historian or a heavy avid novel reader but I definitely can say this movie had my undivided attention and gut in a knot waiting to see what was going to happen next up to the very end ! The performances by ALL actors were outstanding ;hats off to Colin Farrell and Terence D. Howard who put their best forward ! Willis’ character may have seemed one dimensional to some but his role required someone who was stern and dead serious (he was not suppose to be likeable and gung ho as in his Die Hard films… Willis is older and wiser now). And the real character twist was the Nazi comandant of the POW camp who seemed a little laxed in character and not befitting of the stereo typical film Nazi. However, his cruelty and menace was on a more intellectual mind game of chess and manipulation between the POWs concerning a tribunal matter…
Overall, I was extremely pleased with Hart’s War…Great movie, great story, great acting.While this may not have been anywhere near Oscar calibre (in my opinion it should have come close to) such as Saving Private Ryan it is filled with intrigue and suspense ! That’s good enough for me…
