He is asked to lead a ragtag unit of misfits, known as the War Pigs, on a secret mission. They must go behind enemy lines to uncover and capture a Nazi-developed super weapon, the V3, a massive artillery cannon that would give the Nazis an insurmountable advantage against the Allies. With the help of Captain Hana Picault (DOLPH LUNDGREN), a German anti-Nazi serving with the French Legion, and Colonel A.J. Redding (MICKEY ROURKE), a battle-hardened WWI veteran, Jack must train, lead and earn the respect of his new squad to become a functioning reconnaissance unit.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a name=\"features\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>SPECIAL FEATURES \u2013 0\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\">This release comes with a simple <strong>slip cover<\/strong> and inside is a standard <strong><u>DVD Copy<\/u><\/strong>, no other features were included.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"*\" src=\"http:\/\/www.moviemansguide.com\/images\/main\/bar_blue.gif\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"3\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a name=\"video\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/gHWX6b3.png\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"border-screencapture aligncenter\" title=\"War Pigs\" src=\"http:\/\/i.imgur.com\/gHWX6b3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<table id=\"review-content\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>VIDEO \u2013 3.75\/5<\/strong><\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>War Pigs<\/em><\/strong> is presented with a 1080p high-definition and a 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio.
