For your information, 'Tae Guk Ki' of Ronda and 'Brotherhood' of Wodin is the same film.

Das Boot in the uncut version is fantastic - about the best war movie I have seen - nobody will do a sub film to touch it

Just a little input:

the opening scene in "Gladiator" isn“t that great by detail...
teutonics dressed like Neandertalers, ballistas in a forest...
and that forest is for sure no typical forest in ancient ger-
many. To friendly and "tidied up". And wrong trees.

My two pence,

TL.

A couple honorable mentions:

I thought Stalingrad was pretty good all round. Authentic equipment and good pak vs T34 battles. Dubbing was really bad tho.

and the best small arms pistol fight goes to....the way of the gun[:'(] I know its not a war movie but it was the best choreographed protracted gun battle going. Complete with magazine changes, reloading. Crippling extremety hits, glass impaling, leading to a realistic out of ammo out of blood death ending even tho they had bullet proof vests. Cant get more real.

We probably automatically associate war with WW2 in most cases? But I agree, that was a very cool scene. I also remember a scene from a Finnish movie about the finnish winter war. The scene was very vivid, but I cannot remember the film


JT


It simply called "the winterwar" in finnish ofcourse. And i have to say that this one is the most realistic film i have seen, ofourse i have not been to any wars, but i did military service in the Artillery and by god they have got that thing right in this movie. I suggets you try to get a hold off a copy, its well worth a look. And i dont think you will be content with only watching it once. The battle scenes is just outstanding. And the way they manages to portrait heavy Artillery fire is without equall.

The opening scenes of Enemy at the Gates were pretty good.

The scene where every 2nd russian just gets an ammo strip but no rifle and where u see the troops crouching in small ferries?......Ferries spilling troops to hold the left bank at all costs. Great scenes, and halfway correct historically, afaik. The russian sniper's rifle resides in a Museum in Russia, nowadays.

Btw, both scenes have been used in the game "Call of Duty".
