Full Plot Details

Based on a true story, Sergeant Peter King of the Army Dental Corps, too old to fight, and Private Leslie Cuthbertson, a trainee dental mechanic in the Corps, are thrown together by their passionate desire to see active service. Armed with just two revolvers and a dozen grenades, King persuades Cuthbertson to join him on a mission to occupied France. In a letter to Sir Winston Churchill, King explains their intention to invade France and fight the Germans. After several failed attempts, they finally arrive by boat and stumble across a German radar station. They succeed in blowing up what they believe to be the main Operations Room, but are soon forced to make their escape as the entire compound unexpectedly erupts with gunfire and explosions. After narrow escapes from the Germans and a stray mine in the Channel, the two men are picked up at sea and interrogated as spies. Identified as deserters, they are returned to their barracks to be court-martialled. At the last minute King and Cuthbertson are saved by the arrival of Major Merton, Churchill's Chief Intelligence Advisor. Their letter has been received in Whitehall and Merton corroborates their heroic story. Exonerated of lying, King and Cuthbertson are nevertheless reprimanded by the Court for their behavior, but receive an invitation to tea with the Prime Minister should they ever be in Whitehall.

Movie Reviews

Oregonian - 9/10 by M.E. RussellWell worth an evening invasion of the art house.
Film Journal International - 8/10 by Lewis BealeWinds up as a charming little entertainment about two lovable, albeit misguided, patriots.
L.A. Weekly - 8/10 by Scott FoundasMore often than not, Two Men Went to War resembles a feature-length episode of "Hogan's Heroes," with the brave but clumsy Brits continually managing to outfox the even more bungling Nazis.
One Guy's Opinion - 8/10 by Frank SwietekA curiously feeble wartime comedy...to be filed under the heading of 'Might Have Beens.'
Hartford Courant - 8/10 by Deborah HornblowThere is no getting around the fact that Two Men doesn't have quite enough ammunition to sustain its own lunacy or our interest.
ReelTalk Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Donald J. LevitQuietly making its point, 'Two Men Went to War' is a delight for those old enough to savor another time, another world.
Reel.com - 7/10 by Timothy KnightAn understated charmer inspired by true events.
Boxoffice Magazine - 6/10 by Kim WilliamsonThe film -- although slight -- works wonderfully.
Film-Forward.com - 6/10 by Kent TurnerFar from an anti-war film, Two Men is more in line with In Which We Serve (1942) than Oh! What a Lovely War (1969).
Dallas Morning News - 6/10 by Jane SumnerThe mission, which the soldiers codenamed Operation Mad Dog, would have been delicious as a documentary, but director John Henderson goes for an antic Two Stooges Abroad approach.
