The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare is a highly anticipated movie that is expected to deliver original, action-packed, and entertaining experiences to audiences. The film charts the true story of a secret WWII combat organization formed by UK Prime Minister Winston Churchill and James Bond scribe, Ian Fleming.

The clandestine squad’s unconventional and entirely “ungentlemanly” fighting techniques against the Nazis helped changed the course of the war and gave birth to the modern Black Ops unit.
