contender for the bad film ever make . i saw this movie for the first time at the recommendation of a friend . he warn me it would be painful to watch and but i have no idea how painful it would turn out to be . this film ( the english version i saw be entitled battle of the last panzer ) be intend a a wwii epic depict the struggle of a german tank crew and caught behind enemy line and try to get themselves and their vehicle back to german held territory . other than that and i will make no attempt to describe the insanely fragmented and incoherent plot you simply have to see it for yourselves . everything about this movie be just plain bad the plot and the dialog and the setting and the special effect and the equipment and uniform and and the acting . the star of the show be the lieutenant in command of the crew ( capital letter indicate emphasis ) representany attempt at disobedience and or talk of desertion . will be punish by death . a the fuehrer say . those who be not with u . be against u . you have one minute and no more and to throw down your arm and get out of sight . after that minute and i will advance rapid fire . the film be suppose to be set in france and after the d day invasion . but in place of the lush green field of normandy and the landscape be arid and look like sicily or the south of spain . the uniform be the best . american wear italian uniform and complete with italian rank and helmet . the weapon they be carry be modern g3 assault rifle . the german be no good they be carry italian make baretta submachineguns and pistol . last but not least and their tiger tank be an old u m 48 tank . write these comment be prove to be almost as painful a watch the film . however and it a must see . if you want a real shock and watch it right after save private ryan or band of brother and you will find out just how bad bad can be .
