War Pigs

Written and made in the same vein as famous WWII movies like Kelly's Heroes and The Dirty Dozen, War Pigs, is a movie for fun WWII action movie lovers! War Pigs is a WWII based action adventure film much like the WWII movies of old– like Kelly's Heroes and The Dirty Dozen. The script had a lot of those same fun gritty elements from all those war movies I watched growing up as a kid. I suppose the idea for War Pigs, this rag tag group of misfits that go behind enemy lines, really stemmed from those old WWII movies and the fun adventures the men would go on to bring down the evil Nazi war machine. Saving Private--this movie is not, and if you are expecting that type of WWII movie, you will be disappointed. But if you are a fan of Kelly's Heroes, then you have found the right movie. War Pigs is a fun action adventure movie set in WWII. It follows the story of disgraced former Captain Jack Wosick, who is tasked to lead a rag tag unit of misfits behind enemy lines to destroy one of Hitler's last ditch wonder weapons. Some of the major influences on the story are my love for history and the WWII time period in general. WWII was such a black and white war; there was good and bad, and it is always fun as a story teller to be able to tell those kinds of tales. Plus it is always fun to kill Nazis, which seems to be a common cinema theme. War Pigs is a fun watch. Dolph Ludgren and Luke Goss give amazing performances as French Foreign Legionnaire Peter Picault and Captain Jack Wosick. You are gonna enjoy this movie!
