Don't believe the hype

I can't understand the high rating for this film, it's not terrible in my opinion but its just mediocre. The acting is largely ok although the 'band' are all quite irritating once in the 'room'. Some of the violent scenes are done quite well but a lot of the main plot makes no sense.

Firstly if the plan is the kill the band members they have them in a locked room with a very thin door, why didn't they just either a)get the guy in the room to just kill them or b) get together a group of them fully armed, kick the door down and kill them? Even when they got the only gun the band had they just left rather than entering the room, why?? The actions of the nazis made no sense. The ending was also very anticlimatic and pretty awful.

Overall the acting was decent and some of the scenes were done well, especially the dog scenes, but it was let down by some implausible actions from the 'bad guys' that just made no sense.
