Patriots awake

Now if you have issues with the movie because of the melodrama, because of the patriotic side of it (something we sort are used to from American movies), I fully understand that. But the story is based on real life - so if you don't like that, it would mean you have issues with what transpired.

Of course what also could be true: you just don't like how the theme has been handled. But that would circle back to what I said above. The action and stunts are really well made and the "joke" at the beginning works well too. If you can overlook some of its flaws, there is quite some fun you can have with this. Of course don't take everything as written in stone. To fully appreciate what the men and women (boys and girls) did back then, you probably have to read up a bit on your history ... unless you already know what's up.

score 8/10
