Review of Age of Heroes

Age of Heroes (2011)
4/10
Loosely based on a true story and ending inconclusive
16 June 2011
Warning: Spoilers
Just seen this movie little bit disappointed how British commandos can be easily captured and in quantity even the torture scene with the captured SAS soldier was just awestuck took sean bean long enough to keep him quiet. They don't even wear winter smocks for camouflage and there standing out in the open with 'just shoot me' all written all over them. They don't even hide the dead German bodies or their parachutes or at least try to sniper the SS officer.

I can only say that when it gets to the end you become disappointed. You don't know what happens to sean bean's character and his companions, did they ever evacuate and what about the secret information they stole is unknown. There is not even a quote or written details in the end to say what happened or if there is going to be a sequel, it was as if it was cut short.

The actual true story is set in France not Norway and it was named Operation Biting not Operation Grendel not that I know of. Don't expect it to be clint eastwood style like that movie 'Where Eagles Dare' they probably didn't had enough money to make a movie similar to that.
