Smile The Admiral

Has anyone seen this film ("The Admiral"), I bought it recently and found it to be "okay" a little better than "Fortress".
As I knew what to expect, I would not want to be too critical, reduced cost and modern graphics seems to be the way forward these days, and as they say "something is better than nothing"....

Re: The Admiral

I much preferred Fortress to this to be honest (if by Fortress you are referring to the one about Brest-Litovsk). Admiral started promisingly but then just seemed to grind on. It is obvious that it is a mini-series cut down to allow a release as a film so can't comment on what it would be like in its full length. There are plenty of war (or historical related) films that I can watch again and again but this isn't one of them. Overall I'd give it 1.5 to 2 out of 5.
