HART'S WAR
Released: February 15, 2002
Ahhhh, the career of Bruce Willis. For every "Pulp Fiction", "The Sixth Sense" and "Die Hard" there is a "The Color Of Night", "The Seige" and, unfortunately, "Hart's War". Thomas W. Hart (Colin Farrell), a law student, becomes a lieutenant during World War II, is captured and asked to defend a black prisoner of war falsely accused of murder. Willis plays Col. William A. McNamara. Both are prisoners of war in a German camp. What first starts out to be a escape plot only serves as a background for the racial tension main plot. The ending, as Hollywood tends to do, serves to uplift the Willis character despite him not being the Hart from "Hart's War". Worth renting for the cinematography, but that's stretching it...
