is a good flick. I like the cast (not their personal lives but their acting). I like the way the movie depicts the ugliness of war. I like the way it presents the lives of the characters.
So to the movie critics who slammed it or demeaned it. Pfffft!!!!

Kinda long but very powerful.

(47,201 posts)Its about the battle for Stalingrad. Based on stories from a Russian sniper and a book about the battle.
Fairly graphic, and not entirely accurate to history.

Correct.
I also like how it shows the use of propaganda.
