I once heard that the difference between a good film and a great film is the director. The one that can pull the vision throughout production despite whatever obstacle comes is what makes it great. This film lacked direction where it mattered
The checklist driven production had the following: 1. Adequate budget 2 great sets 3. Great costumes and props 4 decent actors 5. Two huge predecessors to cultivate interest in Thai show (the pacific and band of brothers)
But the show failed in heart. It was underwhelming. Hinted at good characters but falls short of focus to show us who to care for.
Instead he just ran a checklist 1 drunken pilot with locals. Falls for girl 2 a clever guy holding onto high demand, low density items (like bikes) 3 a narrator to create gravity moments 4. A commander who demands more 5 a food scene for comraderie with a comedy moment at one persons expense (salt scene) 6 big budget scene for action sequences.
7 tense battle scenes and personal decisions to overcome situation
Yet, despite copying the basics, each part felt bland. Like there was no unifying vision of what the director wanted to say. Sc new are just cobbled together , hoping we are all WW2 buffs. The actors just all blend together. Muttled mess
The only thing this show does is to inspire me to turn it off and rewatch the great WW2 shows that preceded This one.
These heroes deserved a better telling.
