Steffan's ample attributes not exploited
22 June 2008
Since I like World War Two as a movie genre, I tend to be a bit more kind in my criticism than others. I found the set designs, wardrobe and ambiance acceptable. I found Jinny Steffan more than appealing, and believe the film would have been much more tolerable for me if her ample "attributes" had been exploited more. And, as others have pointed out, this film is anything but memorable — and for all of the historical, political and military inaccuracies already pointed out. In addition, prior to this, I had never seen any World War Two ground troops, Army OR Marine, who wore jump suits, especially jump suits complete with leggings. As for goofs, in the final scene, Jason Connery (with a gunshot wound in his left leg) and Jinny Steffan walk away from the doomed train. However, with each step, he puts his full weight on his left leg and limps on his right as she supposedly holds him up.
