Thought it was a good film, couldn't believe how much space there is inside a Sherman, seemed loads of room, can think of better ways to go than lose your head to a round from a Tiger

Probably right, just didn't look nice "incom....." Splat !

More room than you could possibly imagine Steve.....How else could a potato masher explode inside a Sherman and Mr. Pitt's hair, face and uniform stay perfect.

May have been turnip mashers Also 10 lb shaped charge panzerfaust would have created a lovely "Mixed Grill" beforehand ops:

Watched it few days ago, overall is great action movie!!! Mr. Pitt's hair gel is really superb for 1945

Well sorry to be contrary chaps but I thought it was a dreadful film, the only exception being some nice tanks. I strongly expect the true story it was based on, of which I was unaware until I read this thread, would be much more interesting.


Luckily we (the allies) won the war and I won't get sent to a camp for disagreeing with everyone else


Cheers

I bought it on Saturday.


Watched it that evening...and although it passed a few hours, it wouldn't be a film I'd watch again, and one of the reviews on the box says something similar to "Best War film since Saving Private Ryan"...whoever said that (IMO) was talking out of their rear end.


I find it very hard to believe that even with limited battle harden troops...3-4 Tiger's, various anti tank weapons and an SS battalion etc....that the Germans seemed to be portrayed as a rather useless fighting force.

I think I'll watch it again just to enjoy the all be it being rather far fetched action


This would have been a much more realistic movie if we Brits had made it which sakes the question why we don't make any war films anymore

Myself and the wifey watched it over the weekend, and both thought that even though it`s not a bad film to watch, it was totally over hyped, not enough tank on tank scenes for me.

......... not enough tank on tank scenes for me.

Weirdo ! lol

I do agree with you that they actually portrayed the german as rather ineffective at their job. But I just liked seeing the tanks and vehicles. I also found it funny the first time I watched it that the grenade used at the end left Brad Pitts hair (and body) perfectly intact.

Ahh yes with plenty of brew-ups......not Shermans...tea pots :P

[Guest]

Agreed...the tanks and vehicles were top notch.


I had the same thoughts when the grenade was dropped in. I was expecting a rather large "kabooooom"...but only heard a dull thud, and then expecting the inside of the tank to be decorated with various shades of red and flesh...only to see some tiny marks on Mr Pitt
