How are the reviews for ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’?
According to reports, ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’ is a fun WWII action flick with a terrific cast, great action, and some humorous moments. The movie channels the spirit of Guy Ritchie’s earlier work, even if it lacks much of the finesse. Still, despite its flaws, it remains an enjoyable watch.
Ritchie directs and co-writes the film, based on Damien Lewis’s 2014 book “Churchill’s Secret Warriors: The Explosive True Story of the Special Forces Desperadoes of WWII.”
What is the Plot of ‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’?
‘The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare’ is an action-comedy that tells the story of the first-ever special forces organization formed during WWII by UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill and a small group of military officials including author Ian Fleming. The top-secret combat unit, composed of a motley crew of rogues and mavericks, goes on a daring mission against the Nazis using entirely unconventional and utterly “ungentlemanly” fighting techniques. Ultimately their audacious approach changed the course of the war and laid the foundation for the British SAS and modern Black Ops warfare. (Via Official Website)
