YMMV / The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare

Go To

  • Ability over Appearance: The real Lassen looked nothing like Alan Ritchson, if for no other reason than because Ritchson's enormous physique (which he developed for his part in Reacher) would be very unlikely given the wartime rations his character would be mostly subsisting on. However, his physical performance and stunt choreography more than make up for it.
  • Awesome Music: The teaser trailer is set to the ever so punchy "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen.
  • Funny Moments:
    • Gus and Tiffin are inflitrating a German camp, where a leading officer (dubbed "Joker" in the trailer's subtitles) jokes about someone confusing his wife with a dog. As his comrades laugh, Gus as well behind him, catching their now terrified attention. Gus notes that the joke was "very good" before the commando starts to gun the Germans down.
    • While Lassen is ripping through a squad of Nazis with an axe, he stops to give a goofy, cheerful wave with said axe to his astonished teammates on the other side of a door.
