Why is George Segal in The Bridge at Remagen?
That guy is so annoying. I can picture him complaining about every little thing. At the end, his character felt sad because he
lost his thieving friend. Then, Angel came back, and he's all happy. But losing others didn't affect him one bit?
First, everybody wants to blow up the bridge. Now, they don't want to. Who cares either way? It's a stupid bridge. By the way,
where was the German 15th Army? They never showed up.
Like A Bridge Too Far, I don't know what's going on. Nobody explains anything. It's
just fighting and a French girl undressing for a minute. Tanks, planes, and machine guns...bring them on, who cares about me? I'll do
everybody a favor by dying of boredom for two hours. At least, the lone bright spot is Robert Vaughn, a 100% American who probably
couldn't pass a German test in high school if his life depended on it.
All in all, The Bridge at Remagen is too ordinary to make an impression for a WWII film.
