    For people raised on a diet of Call of Duty and sub-Tarantino knock-offs, SAS Rogue Heroes will feel like a breath of fresh air.

This self-conscious melange of good and bad produces, unsurprisingly, a product of variegated quality.

I don't think we really need an entire episode of bravado to hammer that home. And I'm not a huge fan of too much exposition, but some clarity around this point of time would have helped (a failed mission or the allies getting their asses kicked by the Germans would have established the frustration and need ,while adding some much needed action).
