I read somewhere that the budget of this movie was big, but it didn't show. There were some remote CGI ships on fire, but most of the battle scenes had surprisingly few people. The French saviours was a group of three soldiers, and a battle was simply won by taking out one, single machine gun station.
Also, this 110 minute long minute movie had way too many story lines, many felt a little "spur of the moment" thinking on the set, "just to make it a little more interesting".
My main take about this movie going out of the movie theatre was probably that I didn't really believe the main take of it. Sure, I have read about the real events of Narvik in 1940, which must have been terrible for the people living there. Plenty of drama to be had without making up one.
