Movie Reviews
When
one watches this movie you need to keep in mind that not all war movies
are the same and the focus of the movie depends on who made the movie,
how it was made and who is watching it? Make sense...of course not but
in a nutshell keep an open mind. Is it about war? Yes some of it is. It
is about bonding and camaraderie? Yes of course, it highlights strained
relationships in very stressful and violent situations. I enjoyed the
movie and being ex military in the 3rd Armour Division you do tend to
pick things out BUT I could do that in just about any military movie I
have seen especially from WWII to date. Without being too specific I
spotted armor and infantry tactical strategies which confused me a bit
but other than that I did enjoy this movie. War is ugly and this movie
does not miss that point.
