T-34 sounds a more like a fanciful fictional movie compared to Fury. Yeah, Fury had story problems due to historical inaccuracies and exceeded normal suspension of belief for the final sequences but T-34 seem to hit that mark much earlier, with the Germans wanting a crewed target vehicle for the Panther commander's war games. Of the few Russia WW2 war movies I have seen, there seems to be a mystical, supranatural thread helping the Russians win in each one. Even the oft maligned Battle of the Bulge is better. IMO

The Russians have a knack for strange allegorical war films. Think of "White Tiger". Even "Come And See" partly comes into that bracket.
