There are no "big name" celebs in it, which makes it more believable. This is a truly stunning motion picture. I hate war, and I have seen war. This film will break your heart. Do not miss it. You can feel the winter. The cold. You can feel the pain of all involved, combatants on both sides. Occasionally, human kindness breaks through the intense tragedy. But, throughout it all, violent death prevails. It clearly demonstrates the utter futility of war. The complete waste of decent lives.
Not a propaganda piece.

Definitely worth watching. Can't give it 5 stars. It is a close call, but can't do it. As an Army Vet, brother to two active servicemen, son of a marine, Vietnam vet, and grandson of two soldiers that both survived WWII, this movie hit home. I married a German woman and have spent a significant amount of time overseas, living there for five years and getting to spend a lot of time with my wife's German family.
To hear about WWII from their side, and about the Nazi party, and the pressure and influence at that time, really taught me to understand that many of the people did what they had to, like myself. You are told to do something, and you have to, or risk death or imprisonment. This movie showed the human aspect of soldiers like many movies don't. It showed people dying for each other, defending each other, having disagreements but still following orders, and what I took away from the movie the most, was the persistence and determination to succeed with their mission.
Take care of your fellow soldiers, do your job. Try to get home. This movie hit home. Really liked it. At first I wasn't so into it, but as the movie progressed I found myself more and more into the characters and the story. Worth watching. I guess this could be considered character development, but it does go to the extreme in that regard. My main concern about this film is the German revisionist interpretation of what happened at Malmedy. While serving a tour with the US Army in Germany, I had the opportunity to visit Malmedy and its surroundings several times.
It is a solemn place where a major atrocity was perpetrated at the hands of SS Kampfgruppe Peiper.

The Army IG, another Army review board, and a Senate subcommittee all investigated this atrocity, and the conclusions are not so vague. Why the Saints and Soldiers production staff decided to ignore this volume of information is suspect. SS soldiers under Peiper had at least 3 years experience of perpetrating the same atrocities in Russia before they had returned to the West.
Surrounding a tight group of captives in an open field with machine guns and then waiting for an opportunity to open fire was a typical SS tactic.

Most of the Malmedy POWs were then dispatched with a shot to the head while wounded. There is a detailed US Army Mortician report dealing with the Malmedy massacre that can be found online. Trying to justify the atrocities conducted by German soldiers against US POWs at Malmedy and Belgian civilians in Stavelot, by going along with the notion that some prisoners tried to escape, overrides for me any other aspect of this film.

The product description for this item includes the phrase 'special edition tin box', which might make you think it's going to come in a tin box. It doesn't. Just a regular plastic DVD box. I can't say I'm that bothered, but if you're expecting a tin - be warned. The film itself claims to be 'based on actual events', i. This does form the starting point for the film, but doesn't really have a bearing on the plot - it's just a reason why four US soldiers, who escaped the massacre, find themselves trapped behind enemy lines and trying to get back to their own side.
The United States and the Refugee Crisis, 1938-41
These four come across a bailed-out British airman, who has vital information and is like something out of 'allo 'allo, and the five make their way through the snow. They bicker amongst themselves, have various close calls with German patrols and befriend a French woman and her daughter, who have an improbably well-stocked larder and neat and tidy house considering its proximity to the front-line. There is also a highly improbable coincidence, before the film ends with quite an exciting sequence as the group attempt to battle through the Germans to their own side.
I've noticed other reviews mentioning a religious element to the film, and it's definitely there. Much of the aforementioned bickering is about religion, but when one character uses the phrase 'my Father came and found me' at a critical juncture, you can be in no doubt as to the religiosity of the film. But it's not excessively 'in your face' and doesn't detract from what is a decent, reasonably well-acted WW2 drama.
A second disc contains a fairly pedestrian minute documentary about the Malmedy Massacre. I think the Allies were referred to at one point early on as 'divine forces', which is a bit weird, even given the religiousness mentioned above. It doesn't appear to give any special insights, and at least half is devoted to the post-war legal wrangling, which is not exactly riveting stuff. There are also some pretty dodgy-looking graphics. Saints and Soldiers is a war drama which according to it's sub heading, is based on actual events, namely the horrific murder of over 70 unarmed US soldiers at the hands of an SS Panzer Division in Malmedy, Belgium, during World War 2.
Four US servicemen manage to escape from the massacre and team up with a crashed RAF Pilot Winley who is carrying information vital to allied commanders. Corbin Allred, a Mormon actor, plays Corporal Greer who stands out from his companions in that he had been a missionary in Berlin prior to the war. No mention is made as to Greer's religious affiliation, but it is not difficult to work out that this non smoking, non drinking, coffee hating soldier is a member of the LDS church.
After trying to make it past enemy lines on his own, Winley, the RAF pilot returns to camp with a German soldier that he has managed to capture, and we then learn that Deacon knows the German, as he taught his family while he was serving his church mission in Berlin. So good US Mormon soldier is reunited with 'good enemy' German Mormon soldier and they chat and pray together. The group let the German soldier go as he has given them details of the Nazi Troop Movements in the surrounding area. After a few more skirmishes with the enemy the US comrades finally catch up with their own troops and pass on the vital information.
Whilst the story is a good yarn, in which we learn something of the morality and coping abilities of soldiers under pressure, it is too much to expect an audience to believe that a US Mormon fighting in the Ardennes Forest would bump into the very same German Mormon that he knew from his missionary days, and happily chat and pray together. The odds for that happening are almost impossible. The only substance to the claim that the film is "based on actual events" is the fact that the Malmedy Massacre was in fact true and a war crime.
As for the rest, we must accept that the final statement in the credits is true. Quality acting from unknown actors, working to a somewhat unbelievable script in the snowy forests of Utah. I loved it for the implausibility. Not at all typical of the genre. Released in Running time approx 90 minutes.
Subtitled in English. They meet up with a downed British Pilot who has vital intelligence and together they try to cross through eneny lines to deliver it. Playing like a superior episode of Band Of Brothers and shot in the self same desaturated palate Saints and Soldiers benefits from a tight running time 85 minutes which does nothing to diminish it's emotional power and a good ensemble cast.
The action when it comes is both potent and deeply troubling as it should be with Ryan Little's direction allowing all the characters to develop convincingly. One or two contrivances and the pilot's odd British accent aside,Saints and Soldiers is a worthy entry into the war genre and what it lacks in spectacle,it more than makes up for in it's potent depiction of the human cost of war. Spend a little extra for this two disc set and you get a worthy doc on the events at Malmedy.
