About 5% of this film has combat scenes in it. It's mostly about how badly the French dealt with their African and North African soldiers in WW2.
Which is fine. Except it's badly directed and dull. And it has Jamel Debbouze in it who's an OK actor but in real life only has one arm.
The film makers think they get away with this by having him walking around with a prosthetic arm tucked in a pocket.
I gave this film the very rare distinction of leaving before the end as it was so slow. And I like French movies!
Didnt like it, firslyt its not in english and I didnt find nice to read subtitles
