Movie Reviews of Play Dirty
Movie Review: WWII film made in the anti-war Sixties has disappointing ending
Summary: 2 Stars
The best thing about this film is Michael Caine's performance, but if you know Caine's film history, he's been in some clunkers. As the other reviews allude to, this is a pseudo "Dirty Dozen" clone. The plot's pretty unimaginative, with the greatest disappointment being the ending, but considering it the anti-war era when the film was made, not unexpected. You'll wince when you see a character attempting to return to Allied lines wearing a German officer's uniform, which is incredibly stupid, considering that, with the simple expedient of removing the jacket, the German army desert uniform of this period looks substantially like the Allied uniform. No eye-candy in the way of period aircraft or vehicles, so I can't even recommend it for that reason. Skip this one, or don't say you weren't warned.
