TL;DR Summary

"The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare" is a World War II action movie directed by Guy Ritchie, inspired by the true story of a secret mission authorized by Winston Churchill to undermine Hitler’s fleet of German U-boats. Led by a renegade ex-criminal named Gus March-Phillips, the team embarks on a daring and dangerous operation, featuring crackling dialogue, straightforward set-pieces, and a terrific ensemble cast. The film's approach owes much to Quentin Tarantino's "Inglourious Basterds," and while lacking in suspense, it delivers a sense of delight in watching the team succeed despite setbacks, ultimately offering a thrilling and unconventional take on wartime heroism.
