Most helpful review Windtalkers

  • extremely poor showing

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By Willy from West Yorkshire , 12 Dec 2003

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Well what an extremely poor showing from the usually very good Nicholas Cage.

    Set during the Second World War, two men (Nicholas Cage/Christian Slater) are given the role of protecting at all costs two American Indian radio operators who use the ancient Indian dialect to deliver orders and so as to stop the Japanese from cracking their codes.

    The film starts off very poorly with one of the worst acted war scenes I have ever seen.

    The poor acting continues with a very weak acting line up. The story is very lame, the effects shocking, the deliverance of the whole message about the American Indian radio operators extremely poor.

    Thank God I rented this movie for free and didn't so anything foolish like paying to rent it or even worse actually buying this pathetic movie.

    Sorry to write such a poor review especially when its my first but wish I had been warned off this film by other reviewers.

  • THE FOLLY OF WAR

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By Burnhamite (388 reviews) from BURNHAM , 08 Dec 2010
    One of the most brutal & savage movies of the last war, the battle seems to last for almost all of the film with death and destruction all around. Nevertheless as a true story it has to be told, certainly from the point of the Navajo Indians, whose treatment by their own countrymen is hard to understand. Gory, a very good movie, well watching, but not for the squeamish.

    Rated - 1.0 star  
    By filmsaremypassion (149 reviews) from Bexhill , 16 Jun 2010
    Ugh, what was I thinking?! Nicolas Cage movies are good sometimes but this must have been one of his worst film yet. There isn't really a plot, the battles are pointlessly blood thirsty and the pefomances are very so-so from Cage, Christian Slater, Martin Henderson and a brief cameo from Jason Issacs. Not even the Blu-Ray could master a good picture or sound, this movie is one to avoid.
