At the end of World War II, a German soldier is looking for his daughter while an SS troop is looking for a Jewish treasure.
Blood and Gold could have had more promise, were it not for the weight of the usual, woke narratives. Turning ordinary German housewives and farm girls, into evil Nazi patriarchy, freedom fighters, with a cowgirl vibe, is not terribly plausible, when faced with battle hardened SS soldiers. Action wise, this flick its reasonable.There are well choreographed fight scenes, especially in the first half of the film. Acting is decent too and the main characterisations are reasonably well constructed, with believable motivations. In summary, a pervasive sense of implausibility, robs this film of the opportunity to represent anything, remotely close, to cinematic "gold". As it stands, its a moderate watch, with decent action to keep the viewer entertained, if you can look beyond its revisionist shortcomings.
April, 1945. As the Allies make their final push in the European Theatre, a battle-hardened army sergeant named Wardaddy commands a Sherman tank and her five-man crew on a deadly mission behind enemy lines.

Members of the U.S. Army's 101st Airborne Division are fighting for their country amidst the rugged terrain of Bastogne, Belgium, in December 1944. Holley and his American compatriots have already seen one of their own, Roderigues, perish under enemy fire. The men try to rebuff another series of Nazi attacks, but what they really need is a change in the weather. Without clear skies, they'll never get the air support they need.

A German Platoon is explored through the brutal fighting of the Battle of Stalingrad.

The platoon members attempt escape from the city, now surrounded by the Soviet Army.
WWII is entering its last phase: Germany is in ruins, but does not yield. The US army lacks crucial knowledge about the German units operating on the opposite side of the Rhine, and decides to send two German prisoners to gather information. The scheme is risky: the Gestapo retains a terribly efficient network to identify and capture spies and deserters. Moreover, it is not clear that "Tiger", who does not mind any dirty work as long as the price is right, and war-weary "Happy", who might be easily betrayed by his feelings, are dependable agents. After Tiger and another American agent are successfully infiltrated, Happy is parachuted in Bavaria. His duty: find out the whereabouts of a powerful German armored unit moving towards the western front.
