FromMichael Bay’sPearl HarbortoXiao Feng’sAir Strike, here are the ten worst movies depicting World War II.
But instead,the disastrous 2001 blockbusterPearl Harborgot director Michael Bay.
But not all of them have such a high reputation, which is where 2012’sRed Tailscomes in.

Red Tailsis not entirely terrible or frustrating, but it justfalls short of being an entertaining movie.
The battle scenes are semi-decent despite their overreliance on unconvincing-looking CGI.
Overall,Red Tailsis a bit of a disappointmentnot the worst, but certainly not the best.
Instead,it was a melodramatic, dull mess that failed to entertain.
The romance is wasted by the lack of chemistry between the two leads,Nicolas CageandPenelope Cruz.
And there’s no looking pastCage’s hilariously fake Italian accent, which makes the performance laughable.

Sadly,the code talkers are poorly represented.
It’s not as frustratingly bad as some others here, but it honestlycomes across as mediocre.
The acting is mediocre, the music is beyond obnoxious, andthe plot is littered with glaring inaccuracies.
Battle of the Last Panzer is not available to buy or stream in the US and Canada.
But sadly, for this next entry, it’s not like any of those films.

Assault on Hill 400is an absolute mess that’s not interesting, poorly made, and insulting to history.
Assault on Hill 400takes a pretty fascinating true story and turns it into a generic snoozefest.
It’s an absolute mess that’s not interesting, poorly made, and insulting to history.
The whole film is overall lackluster anddoesn’t stand out, even in a terrible way.
The film is all over the place, featuringunrealistic action, inaccuracies, and incredibly wooden acting.
Here, he appears one more time inUSS Indianapolis: Men of Courage, a 2016 disaster war film.

Alas, their story is overshadowed by the film’s many flaws.
Though not all too insulting,Men of Courageis a misfire thatfails to honor this real-life event.
