Since the movie doesn't have the budget to show huge battle scenes, the camera zooms in really close and has a couple dozen guys run by the camera to give it the illusion that more is going on than really is.Ĭhad Michael Collins ('Sniper: Reloaded') is the company's defacto leader after their stalwart leader catches a few German bullets. They soon come in contact with an endless line of German soldiers and Panzer tanks. Meaning most of these guys will get picked off one by one.
The group is made up of a bunch of redshirts, so to speak. Since movies about delivering a load of Christmas hams tend to be on the dull side, Neal McDonough is utterly wrong. The only Germans left in the mountains are boys with broken guns and no ammunition. An officer played by Neal McDonough informs the group that the war is all but over.
The plot revolves around a group of Army infantry that have been ordered to deliver this year's Christmas hams to the troops.
Making a World War II movie on a shoestring budget isn't easy. It's obvious that there wasn't a lot of money to go around, so the filmmakers made do with what they had. Okay, I must admit that it's a little hard to be this harsh on an ultra-low-budget movie like this. Realism isn't one of a 'Company of Heroes' chief concerns by the way, neither are acting, the staging of action scenes, or providing anything remotely resembling a competent World War II movie.
