Der Tiger (2025)

This week, the boys join George Clooney, Ice Cube and Mark Wahlberg at the end of the 1991 Gulf War. Stylistically interesting and with a solid script, the film begins with a heist to steal gold stolen by Saddam, but in the end the film has more to say about how the conflict concluded than many of its contemporaries.We are also thrilled to partner with www.warfaremedia.net, who have an incredible range of Cold War posters!
