In "War Sailor" we have average production values, excellent acting and a documentarian approach to the participation of the Norwegian merchant marine during World War Two. But as a drama it is not a movie one should see when they're not in the best of moods. It is overwhelmingly depressing. I watched all three episodes end on end, and I should not have done that. So, I emphatically recommend that viewers do not "binge" on this mini-series. This is not a war movie that shows the triumph of the human spirit, and in fact demonstrates the absolute darkest corners of that spirit. In fact, this movie seems to say, "Life is unrelentingly harsh, then you die."
