Wunderland (2018)
Filmed on an air soft course in Minnesota, this reenactment of the Battle of the Bulge deserves a good Riffing. Not for the scenes of tanks and jeeps driving that make Grandfather's paddling in Zindy The Swamp Boy look like The Fast and Furious. Not for the water bottles laying around the set. Not for for the single-shot panzerfaust still having a warhead on its tube after it was fired. Not for the terrain going from snow to no snow and then back to snow. Not for the SCR-536 Handie-Talkies' antennas not being extended so that the soldiers are not talking to anyone. Not for headliner Tom Berenger saying "Let's get out of here," obviously referring to his thoughts on the movie. Not for the poor sound quality. But for the fact that after writer / director and star Steven Luke forced the audience to endure nearly 90 minutes of a meandering plot accompanied by bad acting, he leaves them on a cliffhanger. Okay, so there is a part two but the film leaves no indication of said sequel. Then he tries to make up for the poor quality of his film by including all the Medal of Honor citations from the battle in the credits. Why just make a better movie to honor the men who fought in the battle in the first place?
