The tank scenes were intense. When the tanks rounds were popping I almost shite my pants. Felt like I was back in AFG
when stuff would blow up and fly past.

Excellent. If you like tanks this is your wet dream.

World of Tanks players will love it even more.

I thought it was pretty good, and yeah definitely not an emotionally positive movie by any means.

The battle scenes may have been more intense than saving private Ryan.

I would hate to be a new guy on a tank with a group of veterans who have been together for years.

I thought it was great.

Best pure war movie in at least a decade. (I think Downfall was better but not sure if I'd call it a true "pure war movie.")

I thought the scene with the 3 American tanks vs the Tiger was the greatest tank battle scene ever filmed.

Cant wait to see this! My best friend who i served in Iraq with was a tanker and driver of an Abrahms. This could be intense for both of us.

A couple of the Germans had redeeming qualities...

But yeah, this wasn't an attempt at getting the audience to like any of the major players.

I liked it. I thought it was poorly directed in parts, mostly early on in the movie, but I suppose the director didn't want to turn up the intensity until the climactic part of the story. Still, I found myself bored with some of the early battle scenes.

The beef was not bad. I think he works a lot better when he's not the leading man. Let's keep it that way. Pitt's performance wasn't one of his best, but it was still good and drove the simplistic story pretty well. I guess that was my biggest problem with it. I wanted a more intricate storyline, and it was basically just a few snapshots of the war, a scene to establish the personalities of the tank crew, all leading up to a final, climactic confrontation.

I'll go with 3/5. Solid, but not great.

I thought it was excellent, did a good job capturing the desperation of the Reich. The Tiger scene makes any flaws completely forgivable.

I can die happy now, ive seen a real Tiger in action.

At least its not The Battle of the Bulge.

Outside of the Panzerlied, and Robert Shaw, that film is almost complete bullshite.

Tank races are kinda disgusting, some of the worst physics in the game, still it's fun breaking 60mph in a tank that actually doesn't fall apart on you.
