7.7 for Cliche: The Movie?


Are you kidding me? Such a high rating for a super silly flick ineptly attempting to rip off Britherhood of War, Saving Private Ryan, Enemy at the Gates, and many other superior movies? (Even as Enemy wasn't even actually good.)

3/10 from this for this guilty non-pleasure and an huge waste of money, and I'm generous here.

I wholeheartedly agree. Sub-par film

All of those movies end with a bunch of English-speaking actors standing in a row, each guy with one hand gripping the shoulder of the other, while the U.S. flag flutters in the background. And fade ... to the sound of soft trumpets.

This movie must have been too outside-the-box for your tastes.





I couldn't believe when I read his filmography that he played a toilet (no joke) in According to Jim

I see you didn't know, but Enemy of the Gates would have a Soviet flag (but it didn't), and Brotherhood of War had a Korean flag (as it was pretty much a SPR rip-off itself already) - and Korean-speaking actors.

Also a fun fact that I found only after writing this comment is that Brotherhood of War writer and director was the director and writer of this film (My Way). He's beeen badly ripping off HIMSELF. http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0437625/
