2 stars (Good Try) Follows the familiar "Dirty Dozen" theme when introducing the characters to the audience. When so many familiar faces are on show it can distract from the plot (Goodman would be a distraction in any ensemble). Commercial offering. ~Tubbs
2 stars (Good Try) A bit like those star-studded romps of the '60s & '70s. Meandering, shallow, and while it misses no opportunity to pontificate about preserving art in order to honour Hitler's victims, actually seems to be doing them a disservice. ~HiFi
