    1. About one hour and 18 minutes, the bridgehead was not captured by the Allies during the day, so they will start at night? ? ? Are the Germans all idiots? ! You are blatantly attacking, and there is no one to reinforce the bridgehead or to strengthen the alert. 2. In the part where the individual soldiers grabbed the airdrops, they knew that the airdrops were under the control of the Germans, but at least they covered the brothers who ran over and shot the enemy with guns to suppress them, but the Allies were watching the fun. 3. There are so many characters, so many ties, so many troops, it is impossible to tell who is who, who is where, who is going where, and who is there. Although it is a documentary adaptation, it is too messy and confusing in the film. 4. Drag the progress bar to fast forward after 2 hours and 10 minutes. 5. It is not recommended for viewers who study military and history.
