On the eve of D-Day, American paratroopers drop behind enemy lines to penetrate the walls of a fortified church and destroy a radio transmitter. As the soldiers approach their target, they soon begin to realize that there's more going on in the Nazi-occupied village than a simple military operation. Making their way to an underground lab, the outnumbered men stumble upon a sinister experiment that forces them into a vicious battle against an army of the undead.

Overlord is to fact as Churchill was to sobriety, or Trump to modesty.

Enjoyable...I didn't care about a single character in this movie, and I didn't care who got blown up...I didn't feel invested, but it was action-heavy enough and well-acted enough to appreciate...once it commits, it's really entertaining.

Rated: B-

Overlord takes many elements you've seen before and creates a mashup that's able to deliver some gory fun, riveting suspense, zombie horrors, and terrifying depictions of modern war in equal measure.

It cruises the line between war and horror somewhat giddily before finally setting on B-movie thrills and tone by the last third.

Rated: 3/5

Overlord is a good movie but had potential to be much better and definitely more fun.

While the trailers scream horror, “Overlord” packs just as much period war-time action and suspense.

Brutal, vicious and grotesque, Overlord is non-stop tension-filled chaos with incredible performances, outstanding VFX and practical effects, taut direction and smart writing. Not to mention a tinge of cosmic horror amidst some gory body horror.

Last I checked, a "B-movie" is a low-budget film with little production value and cheesy effects. This film contains none of these negative qualities and had 40 million dollars at their disposal. The opening sequence alone was amazing with better action and special effects than most big-budgeted war flicks. The acting and dialogue were great, the action sequences extravagant and the practical/special effects phenomenal! Pay no attention to the few idiots labeling this film 'mediocre' because it was nothing short of bloody fantastic! A terrific horror/action/comedy that puts most modern, big-budgeted Hollywood films to shame!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars
