This movie fell short of being funny and even dramatic. It hosted an unbelievable love-at-first-sight love story and an over-the-edge friendship. I found the movie boring and it's not due to a language barrier, as I'm French-speaking myself. "La Grande Vadrouille", another French comedy happening during WW2 which was released four years later (in 1966), is much funnier than this one.
