A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

Hoped for more, a Band of Brothers type movie perhaps? Sadly no, the script was terrible & dialog was flat, contrived & generally cringe-worthy. The acting was amateurish & forced, no realism in the characters or in the delivery. I could barely watch in the end. The scene with the repeated cuts back to the same dead body was painful to watch. The action scenes were cumbersome & predictable, in fact its hard to imagine a poorer depiction of events. I didn't feel connected to any character portrayed in this movieProduction values were low and it shows, that doesn't mean that low budget should equal low quality cinema, but in this case it only adds to the general malaise. Not one for my tastes, missed by a mile.

Far too many "Hollywood" made films forget the truth in their quest to cash in on historically inspired stories. Also most want to come from the "big or grand picture" point of view. Using nothing but original vehicles; uniforms; weapons; equipment; and even ships, this one delivers a true story in an interesting and entertaining way. All from the view point of just one man from a small town in Oregon. The director/writers did not feel the need to re-write history or over dramatize the story with ridiculous special effects, excessive blood, or gore! Yet, it still has all the REAL aspects of war: anger, pain, monotony, excitement, and even the hopes fears, and love interests too. With spectacular production value, they kept it simple and powerful. As such, I find it a very moving and honest tribute to the simple soldier in WW2. A must see movie!

This is my favorite film that I have seen lately. It's got heart and soul! I.ve watched it a few times with my friends too. Very unlike the typical crap that comes out of "hollyweird" where every car going off a cliff magically bursts into flames! and they have endless bullets in there guns! I felt as if i was watching real guys in real wartime. Although I am glad I don't know what real wartime is like. I would have not wanted to be a part of that. The flashbacks are cool. The girl in it is hot! and the Germans are badass! I want the machine gun they use in the snow scenes. the FX were cool but not overdone. I liked the actors. The Italian guy is funny. I love war movies like this! i give it a 9 out of 10.

While i generally cannot stand war movies, my husband and i went to a showing of this movie that he had heard about. I can honestly say I loved this movie! It was extremely well done and touching. I cannot believe what horror these men went through while having to be away from their families. I cried so many times I was embarrassed. The lead is someone I had never heard of but I know I have seen him on other things just can't place where. All in all my husband and I really enjoyed it. Me more for the relationship part of it and my husband more for the "male bonding" aspects and the action! We would recommend. would be a good date movie.
