Story: Hell Hath No Fury starts in the aftermath of World War II. Marie (Bergman) is branded a traitor by her homeland of France for reluctantly helping the Nazis. Meanwhile, a group of American soldiers led by Major Maitland (Mandylor) look to take advantage of her situation by making her reveal the location of the gold hidden by the Nazis.
As the Americans search the graveyard, they find themselves facing competition from the French resistance and Nazis looking to claim back the gold they stole. Marie looks to take advantage of the people using her to get her own revenge on everyone who cost her everything during the war.
Verdict on Hell Hath No Fury
Hell Hath No Fury is an action war movie following three different sides in a post-war environment. We have Americans, the French and the Nazis hunting for gold. They find themselves in a standoff with a local woman branded a traitor, trapped in a graveyard for the gold they want.
This is a tight action movie that is happy to bring the three sides together in a bigger battle. The three sides battling over a small area shows how they can look to end their differences or let greed take over. It creates the shady side of war and what happens between the sides. When it comes to the action, nothing feels as big or fresh as it wants to be. It leaves you knowing where the movie will go pretty quickly.
Final Thoughts – Hell Hath No Fury is the standard contained action movie.
