Nyeeesh! Worldwar-2.net needs to get some film reviewers. Since when has Battle of the Bulge been considered a great movie? And Pearl Harbor? Or, fond as I am of Kelly's Heroes . . . a great war movie?

But interesting sites.

Kelly's Heroes was pretty good for its time. They had mostly real or realistic equipment (the mock up of the Tiger was probably the best ever done up to that point), and the situation, doctrine etc. were pretty good, especially in comparison to films like Battle of the Bulge. Considering that the film was a comedy it was really pretty amazing.

I agree, Skander. For an action/comedy film, KELLEY'S HEROES was probably
a better war movie than 90 % of the Hollywood Garbage done before it.
