I suggest we all respond to her review, and also click 'no - it's not helpful'.

How dare those icky U-boat sailors not clean themselves up and act like gentlemen!

What a buffoon.

Didn't think of that. Went back and did as suggested. Also added a "No" to her additional comment and a "Yes" to the guy who attempted to straighten her out.

Wow just wow. On the other hand I think most of us here could write an equally long review on how Pearl Harbour is a chick flick, and not at all factual and how its the worst war movie in the history of war movies.

Already done. Even Bernard would criticize her decision.

No, I had it my head it was a whopping 319 minutes. After half an hour it started to niggle that that didn't seem right. I was right, I was wrong.

How I didn't use any profanity I've no idea!

I've just given it a 5 Star rating, because there isn't a 6 Star option.
My review is called "J'attendrai". Only buffs 'verstehen werden'.
