In the 80 years since World War II, the conflict remains as prominent as ever on the big screen, as it's hard to find villains as frightening as Nazis. Whether we're given more grounded interpretations of the battle with movies like The Dirty Dozen, Saving Private Ryan, or The Zone of Interest, there's also been more stylized takes on that point in history with projects like Inglorious Basterds, Jojo Rabbit, or the horror-fueled Overlord.
Initial glances at Ministry in trailers drew immediate comparisons to Quentin Tarantino's Inglorious Basterds, as the marketing leaned much more highly into the exploitation vibes of the picture. This comparison isn't necessarily unwarranted, as Basterds is one of the best WWII"men on a mission" movies of the last two decades, and Ministry's premise of a ragtag group reveling in killing Nazis marks a similar agenda to the protagonists in the Tarantino flick.
The biggest issue that Ministry suffers is its reliance on telling audiences more than showing audiences whatever it's trying to get across. The scenes in which Churchill and Gus talk about assembling a team feature Gus explicitly telling his superiors the backgrounds and character descriptions of the other figures, which audiences are just expected to buy into as opposed to actually witnessing.
