Maybe I wasn't paying attention from the beginning, but for the first half of the movie I couldn't understand why these English and American soldiers were wearing German uniforms. Were they in disguise? Then I realised they're supposed to be German!
Well, I can understand them not speaking German as some of the audience may not understand. And I can understand them not speaking English with a German accent as this may be comical, as in 'Allo Allo'. But these soldiers are not saying the sort of things a German would say. And they are not behaving like Germans. I suspect the writers have never lived in Germany and perhaps never even met a German. The movie would have had more authenticity if the actors were replaced be glove puppets - German ones of course.
