this war movie is great
The critics failed again this movie is epic and is by far on my top 3 with saving private ryan and act of valor. This movie is violent and shows bodies part, blood, and guts that is what makes this movie. They really tried to make it as realistic as possible. If you like history or war movies this is gold.
One of best War movie
It is thrilling and one of the best war movie I've ever seen!?
Amateurish and Non-Realistic
What Kang the director has tried to produce is a film that is a clumsy cross between Saving Private Ryan and a maudlin tear-jerker. The storyline is weak, the CGI is amateurish and the realism is nonexistent. Working in a Soviet labor camp did not sustain normal weights, German army officers did not have long 1980's styled hair, crossing over from Soviet to German lines during WW2 did not entail the need to traverse any mountain ranges, a marathon in pre-WW2 Britain was not measured in kilometers and 16 inch shells from a battleship do not just destroy all life within just a 5 yard radius. There was just so much wrong with the film that , for me, it became almost comedic. Furthermore, the loud, blaring quasi-inspirational music just wouldn't stop and became a serious irritant. I was just so glad to see the end of this film.
