Review of A Midnight Clear

6/10
A different kind of WWII flick
21 September 2001
"A Midnight Clear" tells of a WWII Army patrol with a very different approach to war. This film has everything going for it from a solid cast to an interesting premise to excellent cinematography, etc. However, rather than a typical action flick, "A Midnight..." intends to be a human drama which fails to sufficiently develop the characters such that we, the audience, would not be particularly moved is one, none, or all were killed. A tedious and slightly flawed film, the story is simply not sufficiently interesting to make it laudable. A worthy watch probably not deserving of it 7.5 (at this writing) IMDB.com score.
