War Pigs (2015)

War Pigs (2015) is a war action film directed by Ryan Little. The movie stars Luke Goss, Dolph Lundgren, Chuck Liddell, and Mickey Rourke, and centers around a World War II mission that requires a team of misfit soldiers to go behind enemy lines on a dangerous assignment.


The story follows Captain Jack Wosick (Luke Goss), a disgraced soldier who is given a second chance to redeem himself. He is assigned to lead a ragtag unit known as the “War Pigs.” This team is composed of misfit soldiers, including the tough-as-nails Sergeant August Chambers (Dolph Lundgren), who has a no-nonsense approach to leadership.

Their mission is to infiltrate enemy territory and locate a Nazi superweapon that could change the course of the war. The team undergoes rigorous training under the guidance of the battle-hardened French Foreign Legionnaire, Captain Hans Picault (Mickey Rourke). As they prepare for their mission, the soldiers must learn to work together despite their differences and overcome their personal demons.

War Pigs is a tale of redemption, bravery, and the bonds forged in the crucible of war. While it embraces many of the traditional elements of war films, such as heroism and sacrifice, it also focuses on the growth and transformation of its characters.

The film received mixed reviews, with praise for its action sequences and performances, particularly those of Lundgren and Rourke. However, some critics noted that it adhered closely to war movie tropes and lacked originality in its storytelling.
Overall, War Pigs provides a solid dose of wartime action and drama, appealing to fans of the genre who appreciate tales of unlikely heroes rising to the occasion in the face of overwhelming odds.
