Verdict on War Blade
War Blade is an action war movie following an elite English soldier who must put together a team to locate a secret Nazi bunker. It sees him teaming up with the French Resistance and an escaped prisoner, as they search for the bunker. They must overcome the odds and save a prisoner from the tortures involved.
This is a movie that uses the typical English soldier needing to take on the Nazis. It creates a mystery about the bunker and what could be inside that is so important. While also putting together a rag-tag group of soldiers to take on the mission. It does everything you would imagine it to do, without being as intense as it could be. This falls into the type of movie you could watch one late night, filling the watching action movies experience.
