English Bruce has the charisma to captivate people, so it's a shame that almost nothing happens in those two hours. No proper introduction, quick introduction of Hart as the main and honorable hero, interrogation and export to the camp, complications, trials, and even a twist at the end, so that no one comes across as too much of a villain. It's all quite tedious, very pathetic, but occasionally (mainly thanks to the music) surprisingly impressive. Great performances by the actors, but otherwise, unfortunately, a disappointment. ()
