Some good old movies are awful

I am sitting through (trying to sit through) the Richard Burton film Raid on Rommel.

There is a certain affection I have for bad WWII movies. But this film makes Where Eagles Dare look like a documentary.

This movie is a dog. Woof.

It just goes to show that even phenomenal actors like Burton had to occasionally take acting roles strictly to pay the bills.

I forgot to mention “Midway” from 1976. It was a film so terrible that not even an all star cast could save it.

I'll mention Valkrye Really bad

I'll mention Valkrye Really bad

I sat through the 1956 Helen of Troy not so long ago, i don't know why i feel the need to subject myself to such pain.

I thought it was pretty good when I seen it in the theater. I watch it again years later when I wasn't stoned, uugghh.

Inst that the truth However, I saw on TV and was sober.

I assume you are talking about the film starring Tom Cruise as von Stauffenberg? What did you find so bad about it?

I saw it in the theatre as a kid and loved it. I still don;t have a problem with it. Maybe because it was a nice childhood memory.

Just thought it was poorley acted over all..But then beauty is in the eye of the beer holder

Wow bones, are you older than me? I always thought you were younger.

I was 4 years old in 1976 so a movie like Midway would have been totally over my head.
