2.0 out of 5 stars the immortal battalion, April 25, 2006
This review is from: Immortal Battalion [VHS] (VHS Tape)
be careful if you buy the american version of this movie. It has significant cuts in content by comparison with the British version. I bought the american DVD to replace my VHS tape and was disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Class Chasm, February 5, 2006
This review is from: Immortal Battalion [VHS] (VHS Tape)
At this writing, I am watching this movie on the History Channel.
And what memories it brings back to me of basic training, terrible fitting uncomfortable uniforms that did'not fit and chafed your groins because the material was so course. I did my National Service as it was called, not long after this Movie was made and what you see are not really typical of the "National Servicemen" . There are no north country or Irish, one Scottish accent that typified the groups that served. The movies does show a typical officer (David Niven) with that typically foppish south of England accent that was the main class division in British society. It is almost painful to watch this Movie without some anger and sorrow, and an overwhelming sense of meloncholly. None the less, it should be seen more widely as a partial lesson as to why Britain has struggled so long with it's class based system of Governing. Still a good, almost semi documentary on the "Great Struggle " to save civilization from the Nazi(Nationalische Deutsche Sozialistische Arbeiters Partei)terror.

4.0 out of 5 stars It was an immortal squad but it is immortal, July 31, 2001
This review is from: Immortal Battalion [VHS] (VHS Tape)
There is a lot more depth to this movie than you would expect. Yes it is a [biased] movie. But it portrayed the beginning of the breakdown of the class system in England. David Nine plays a junior officer than was from a civilian brigade and now must learn to get along with his Sergeant and men. He goes from aloofness to comrade by the end of the movie. There is plenty of action as the troop transport that they are on gets torpedoed. And they even get to fix bayonets.
