I had wanted to like this movie so powerful. As great as I wanted to like Windtalkers. Both had potential to be really stout but were unable to rise above an absolutely juvenile and cheesy script. I am an avid WWII buff and I give alot of license to war movies and don’t buy them apart for their accuracy or lack there of but this one not only insults the viewer but the legacy of the 92nd/Buffalo.

The Salubrious : Absolutely dazzling cinematography. If you could silent the sound (dialogue) one might reflect they were watching a resplendent decent WWII era movie. Battle scenes were shot well. Uniforms were splendid boring on legal and the weapons were legal although Thompson SMGs and 1911 .45 caliber HGs did not have 100 round clips……
The Unpleasant : Poor and embarrassing dialogue embellished with overacting which made it almost amusing. Obligatory nudity. Soldiers using language and phrases that would be frail only today. A German louspeaker that blares Axis Sally’s propaganda for several square miles over the battlefield and is audible to all. Fragmented yarn with a total lack of cohesion (like this review) . My common is the commanding white officer (Nokes? ) stating that the Germans were going to cause a speed riot by piping in the propaganda. I deem that those mettlesome soldiers were more fervent in staying alive and protecting their comrades than starting a run riot in Italy under fire. But then again this shows the mentality of Spike Lee and the writer.

The Frightening : All white officers and soldiers portrayed as bigoted haters. In one instance the commanding officer refuses to enjoy members of the 92nd crossed the river so does not send supporting artillery strikes. His reasoning for this is “He is lying”.
This same commanding officer condescendingly orders a gloomy soldier to secure him water. The gloomy soldier spits into the canteen before giving it to white officer. Not only does this lower the mentality of the movie several notches but also slanders the memory of those intrepid men of the 92nd/Buffalo that fought for their country.
This movie had potential, unfortunately it was executed by someone who was unable to teach. It is filled with contemporary language, original topics of discussion, awful acting, and endless preaching about the evils of America. Spike Lee had scolded Clint Eastwood for not having any African Americans in Iwo Jima and had wanted him to rewrite history. Well, Spike has done that with this movie.
Positives:
(1.) ???
Negatives:
(1.) Disjointed storytelling with poorly constructed flashbacks (everyone’s currently current cinematographic technique to showoff cleverness) .
(2.) Stereotypic characterizations with sophomoric scripting.
(3.) Cheaply constructed military & war effects e.g. military uniforms that discover as if they were cleanly pulled out of museum storage each day; cigarettes & munitions that last forever despite long term isolation from supply serve.
(4.) Worst of all was that the essential epic of unlit WWII infantry was turned into preachy propaganda & simplistic absolutes that do not permit the audience to be thoughtfully educated but instead to be insulted as if they were moronic simpletons.
