Waking up in hospital a soldier is told it is three years after his last memory. But people seem to be very interested about what he remembers about the war. He must figure out if he is sick or part of an elaborate scam to get information.

Hello,
the concept is interesting but you have to make some creative decisions – is it ww2 or not? It’s an important detail.
Then, find your true inciting event.
Since the movie begins when the man wakes up, this can’t be the inciting event, this is the the initial situation, the set up. The first ten pages would be about a man waking up from coma with a peculiar amnesia, but then… what happens? What put the story in motion? That would be your true inciting incident.
Or you can start with the soldier in war, fighting hard and being touched by a bullet in the head. In this case the inciting event would be the waking up in amnesia.
Maybe the main character is a spy: this can suggest a ‘scam’ attitude, a world where things are rarely what they appears to be. He can wake up in a neutral territory, like Iran. In 1943 Theran was full of spys because of a very important conference. In this context an elaborate scam to get informations from a captured spy is perfectly believable. Or it’s believable that a mentally ingjured spy can be extremely suspicious about everything around him.
Go write this movie!:)

When a traitor agent quits and takes their biggest star to a competitor, the staff of “UNDERDOGS”, a boutique Talent Agency for Dogs: its owner, a bellicose no-nonsense New Yorker; a casting director, a debonair bitter out of place old-timer; and a casting agent, an aspiring actress more interested to getting cast herself than casting man’s best friends, scramble to find a replacement for a huge German Beer commercial; if they don’t, their agency will go to dogs. In the ensuing pandemonium a receptionist sees a big opportunity for his poodle. But will the Germans accept a French Poodle as a substitute of Saint Bernard and will the French Poodle be able to overcome his stage fright? The “Underdogs” better find out the answers soon, because the German patience is running thin and they are that close to kissing “Underdogs” Auf Wiedersehen.
Hello, this could be a funny movie but as a logline... I suggest you to read some logline tutorials like the training page on this very website or anythink you trust on google.
