“If you don't know his name... then you don't know Dick.”
Certified Crap. CrapScore 68, rated by 1 admin.
Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A team of commandos battles a Nazi scheme involving zombies and an attack on New York. This Scottish action spoof pushes wartime heroics into comic-book splatter, complete with jokes about translating its own soldiers. The committed tone makes its handmade excess feel purposeful.
