Pretty good movie and a pleasure to watch. Thanks for upload. Joe S
Thank you PizzaFlix
for the upload
Watching + learning from NSW Australia.
Thank you. It's a great movie and I enjoy it.
This is an older movie. I enjoyed the Norway winter scenery. Newer movies may have a sharper look, yet the scenery was beautiful in the classic movie sense.
Pretty good movie I've seen it once before a long time ago. Plots a little thin but it's not a bad flick.
A1 stuff! It has been decades since I saw this! Great bit... 9:09 [enter comic relief]This is literally a classic in so many ways. It sets the standard for decades, seriously. Example, the entire questioning scene at 45:05-47ish *not* nearly as "cliche" as it seems. Remember this is 1942 and some of these lines are new. How about the all time classic at 46:00 :)
lol made me chuckle when the Brit said.." Canadian eeyyyy"
La firing squad shoots, sounds like one shot. Then only two guys go walking by witt a short wooden box/casket (must of folded the guy in half). LMAO Is this a comedy?
low budget movie. but heck seeing as when it was made. no pretense that its merely a morale booster.
+John Excell --He copped that from his jesuit puppetmasters.
the Isenkram store reminds me of the famous sketch on the Danish language by Norwegian comedians
The high power hand grenades were something else, it's no wonder the Germans wanted to study them.
Not a bad effort from PRC for a propaganda/morale booster film thanks for posting.
One look at the firing squad in the early part of the movie, and I realised where "Allo ! Allo !" got its ideas from.
Set a man free...not make him a slave...profound
Norwegian Pine, less wooden than the acting in this film.
A few stretches in this melodrama's plot.
Wow, that was an amazing hand grenade. Throwing one would be suicidal.
They should have added Brit Gen Monty elbowing his inclusion in this secret commando raid (screwing everything up) !!!
Well well this movie is definitely different from any I've seen 🤔
Where is the night raid 🤨☕lol I'm staying with it till the end🤫
another goodie thanks
I like this WWII movie...really 1st rate
Like these old films .
Hell of a grenade.
I like Harry already and I just met him 😂
A real theatric tour de force. I'm sure they received several Oscar nominations. This stinker makes Monty Python look like Shakespeare.
We were fighting a war at the time and on our own you Muppet
@@britishpatriot7386 On your own? Please don't make me laugh. Ever heard of Lend-Lease?
This movie is a really full of holes. Best left on the cutting room floor.
So bad it's great
At 14:30 look at the the picture of the monarch in the back ground.
I noticed that it does not snow on trees in Norway, only on the ground. Remarkable, eh!
the vikings arfe responsible for that

Hillary Clinton says that it's all because she lost the 2016 election.
Nice.
No defense for this excessively flawed period piece. Bennett, per Wikipedia, was known as "King of the Serial Directors," having directed more serials than any other. It appears quantity, not quality, was an influence on his 125+ films. It was good to hear accents from those portraying foreigners. So many movies don't even try to cast accents, and stars are often incapable. Meryl Streep, Brad Pitt, etc., did their best. Talbot is the exception; with accents abounding, he stands out as unbelievable as a Brit or Nazi. With such careful attention to this, there should have been a better lead.

Guess they didnt have Brovo / Charlie / Delta in those days
Pretty sure these Norway things were Churchill's brainchild
i kinda like the German commander lol
I want one of those grenades.
Good theatre.
Awesome hand grenades,
They look like plastic castings.
How did they get the uniforms I wonder...have them made for props or get patterns...?
Maybe THEY got their uniforms from the Hollywood studios. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.
Oh, They bought these Nazi uniforms at "Nazi -R-Us' in Hollywood !
Get in to 1 plane turns in to a DC3 and then jump out of another model..
GLEN Dooer Hey friend, it;'s a bit of propaganda and fun. Think about it for a little bit. Cheers
Super low budget moral film. The back ground pictures while in studio are atrocious. So are the studio snow scenes. Having the Germans be so clever to catch them, then so stupid to be overtaken in the apartment was predictable. Wow, what a grenade! Must have been nuclear! I laughed out loud at that one. This movie almost seemed like an old 1930 hop along Cassidy serial Saturday double feature skit. You can just imagine people in England in 1942 out for a movie loving this. Maybe even having to leave when air raid sirens suddenly go off. By any standards a B movie, even back then it still must have been good to see the enemy outwitted while enjoying this.A real time piece. I love seeing British movies as they are in English but so very different than U.S. ones.Some of my favorite movies are British from Pinewood studios. Good show. Rather, I should think!
I agree the back ground pictures are poor and the acting is poor
Quite.
i was confused why multi aircraft German bomber formations were searching for them
Well why don't you make a film? This movie was made a long time ago and you and another person are talking about how poor the film is you're attacking the people who made it who are deceased since this was a long time ago. Today's movies aren't any better see that's the problem with some of you... You overreact about things that was way before your time.
you must be snow blind there is plenty of snow in the trees/limbs
isn't the course on Flemish bond suppose to be cross course on every 6 or is there not a pattern ratio. In the film it appears to be every 7 courses. Funny, the building that brew up was wooden standing separate from the one on the right but on the sctreet scene the block was of brick?
No. Flemish Bond has alternating stretchers and headers on every course, with the headers centred over the stretchers underneath. Common Bond with full headers has those separated by five courses of stretchers, not six as in that obvious fake studio set. Whoever cobbled it together had no architectural or engineering background.
Strange how bad the American early WW2 films were compared to most of the British efforts of the time.
37:00
DC3(C47) circling overhead (supposed Nazi transport 😆
"He'll report us, have bomber here in 10 minutes!"
So who comminuted to this acft of the Commandos capturing their VIP POW ?? 🤣😆
Lyle Talbot plays role as if it were from one of his drawing room scenes. Pretty amateurish for 1942.
at 1543 looks like hes wearing a kilt or skirt
C-47 flies overhead decked out in American white star on blue and all, and our 3 intrepid commandos duck for cover in some trees. The background scenery is so fake it comes through clearly as same....even in black and white film! Bad.
So as you have clearly shown us that you are a professional film producer and is very confident to point out how bad this film was made….just remember even with the fake props and bad background…it’s still 100 percent better than anything out today. It has actual professional acting with real talent and great script. Your generation will spend the next 50 years trying to capture your own identity and will never be remembered for anything more than complaining woke lefty immature people who destroyed more than they created….good luck…I wonder what else you will find fault with
@@falconvisionuavI agree with you

Cannon fodder for Montgomery.

Can't decide whether this is a second rate movie or third rate movie. Common fare, put some people to work for a few days.
A highly trained commandos of circus haaa haa
A woman let them down. Wouldn't you think they would be content with having introduced sin into the world in the first place.
with the man's full agreement..
👌💯✅✌👍🌹🇪🇬👏
Hokey- bunch of silly bad acting...
When a soldier kills, can they live with it ..? just asking..
Many have difficulties dealing with it. Some cope but struggle with nightmares depression, others commit suicide, whether the killing is justified in self defence or in defence of their comrades. Most that can live with it without a second thought more than likely have psychopathic or empathetic tendencies, opposite ends of the scale that add up to less than 5% and also considered to be the only really effective
soldiers, others fire at the enemy either hoping to scare the enemy into retreat/surrender or at worst to wound them.
Many studies on the subject of the psychology of warfare. I always have respect for those that have been in action as most struggle with the horrors of war and conflict.
Thank you, very interesting..
Northern Ireland.
H Block prison's
The Irish who executed, & bombed people.

The conscience of guilt , buried in your
conscience call it your soul..
Dose this make any sense.

***** Tell that to the Allied airmen that carried out the bombing of Dresden. To create the firestorm, which followed the initial high explosive ordinance which blew things up, they dropped tons of white phosphorus to get the flames nice and toasty. The most conservative death estimates, not counting the huge unaccounted for refugees was over three hundred thousand dead. Twenty-six thousand of the dead were allied prisoners of war. Any honourable man that served on those missions had nightmares because they could see clearly what they were doing.
oh, well, predictable-2nd rate actors in a 3rd rate film
Three to two (armed), gun on the commander, and they give up without a fight. No, 'Stupid meter' just hit the peg. Not funny enough for comedy, too stupid for drama. 0/10.
I quit counting all the flaws and errors after 15. And that was just the first few minutes. This is a Typical story lacking much imagination. No Thumbs for this one.
+resculptit thinks his opinion of this film actually counts for something.
Hahaha, maybe, but this film is utter shite by any standard. I love film esp. 1930 to 1950 - as if that, or, to carry your argument to it's logical end, what you said or say, counts for anything. Still very funny though.
I lasted about 4 mins. (watching - not with the Mrs)
thankfully we won and you can watch it.....social history propaganda not drama use some empathy filters while watching it
This movie was made during a real drama and is a historical document, viewing it as simply a bad movie is missing the whole point altogether, maybe you should avoid any media dealing with real issues altogether.
no joke this one is so shot full of holes it isn't funny. Wooden acting dumb dialog goofy plot...👎
What a joke
Funny plot! The whole operation is planned stupidly and all three are even more stupid than their commanders😅😅 In 1942 making this much idiotic movie... However for?!😂😂
r
An amazing display of poopaganda, rich with obvious and unintended flaws.
Britain was going to invade Norway, but the Germans beat them to it
why? To get rid of the traitor?
In this film, this was not a invasion, only a raid. British commandos mount raids in Noway mainly to destroy radar sites and factories such as iron ore factories and one or two U boat pens.
Of course the Allies didn't call it invasion, just a friendly occupation like Iceland
Yeah & they were welcomed with delight by the local population, many returned to Britain to join the free forces fighting the Nazis. My father was one of the commandos who raided in Norway.
@@benadam7753 Like they had any tactical alternative and they weren't the nazis, end of argument
