I own the movie, and it wasn't as good as I had hoped it would be. Yes, it shows the grim realities of the battle, but only through tiny microbattles, and not the all-out room to room fighting you would expect. There are some very good scenes about the living conditions, sanitary conditions etc, which make it a worthwhile movie to see at least once.On another note, im looking to rent/buy the movie 'Stalingrad', does anyone have a personal review? I'm pretty sure it's directed by Wolfgang Peterson (or the Guy that directed Das-Boot if I didn't get the name right) and I liked Das-Boot. So, thoughts? [/B]
It focuses more on the desperation of the German army and the breakdown that occurred at the very end. The end is about what you would expect - and certainly not a Hollywood-ized movie.
I give it 2.5 stars out of 5. A couple good fight sequences interspersed with some boring parts. And of course a grim, hard movie to watch. Not something I often grab from my movie bin.
