The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare | Rotten Tomatoes: Based upon recently declassified files of the British War Department and inspired by true events ...

Quick Glance: The Secret Organization in World War II | Rotten Tomatoes

An action-packed comedy reveals the formation of the first special forces unit in World War II based on secret files and true events.

Under the leadership of Prime Minister Winston Churchill and author Ian Fleming, the secret combat group was established to combat the Nazis using unconventional methods, to change the course of the war, and to lay the groundwork for modern special forces.

The director presents a blend of suspense and spectacle, although some critics criticize the lack of historical details and character development.

Despite criticism of the portrayal as pure Hollywood entertainment, the film is deemed entertaining and action-packed, immersing audiences in a fascinating story.

Quick Glance: The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare Critique: Guy Ritchie's WWII Adventure

Guy Ritchie uncovers an entertaining World War II adventure with a unique twist.

While loosely inspired by true events, the film takes creative liberties with historical facts.

The movie is defined by charismatic characters and humorous violent scenes.

Despite some weaknesses, the film provides enough fun and potential for sequels.

Inflation in New Zealand Eases But Near-Term Rate Cuts Unlikely: New Zealand’s consumer prices rose by less than expected in the first three months of this year ...

wsj.com/economy/inflation-in-new-zealand-eases-but-near-term-rate-cuts-unlikely-a4cfaac0

Quick Glance: Powell Warns of Lack of Progress on Inflation

Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized that the U.S. economy, while otherwise strong, has not seen a return of inflation to the central bank's target.

Powell mentioned that the current policy should remain in place as inflation has not declined quickly enough and there has been no further progress towards the 2% goal.

Since July 2023, the Fed has maintained its benchmark interest rate in a target range between 5.25% and 5.5%, the result of 11 consecutive rate hikes.

Financial markets have had to adjust their expectations for rate cuts this year as inflation has been higher than expected, and the Fed's policy continues to be dependent on data.

X/Twitter will charge new users to post, Elon Musk says: Making users pay is only way to stop bots taking over platform

independent.co.uk/tech/x-twitter-elon-musk-pay-to-post-b2529566.html

Quick Glance: Musk Plans Fee for New X Users

Elon Musk intends to charge new users of X in the initial months to curb the activity of automated bot accounts.

The fee is set to be waived after three months to allow free posting.

Tests in New Zealand and the Philippines raised skepticism about the effectiveness of the fee as a countermeasure against bots.

Declining revenues at X post-rebranding and Twitter acquisition, along with a negative brand perception by companies, are impacting the service's business.

In the Security Council, 12 countries voted for a UN resolution recommending full Palestinian membership, with the US opposing and two countries abstaining.

The US argued that Palestinian membership should result from negotiations between Israel and Palestinians to enable a two-state solution.

The Palestinian delegation emphasized that UN membership is a crucial step for peace in the region and criticized the Israeli government for its rejection.

Israel rejected the resolution and warned of its potential impact on future dialogues, especially in light of the recent escalation of violence in Gaza.

Quick Glance: Israeli Strike Damages Iranian Air Defense System Without Detection, Officials Say

An Israeli airstrike on Iran on Friday damaged an air defense system, according to Western and Iranian officials, and appeared calculated to deliver a message that Israel could bypass Iran’s defensive systems undetected and paralyze them.

The strike damaged a defensive battery near Natanz, a city in central Iran that is critical to the country’s nuclear weapons program, according to the officials.

The relatively limited scope of Israel’s strike and the muted response from Iranian officials, however, seem to have eased tensions.

It was confirmed that Israel had deployed aerial drones and at least one missile fired from a warplane, as stated by three Western and two Iranian officials.
