RE: Suggestions for good war movies - Weasel - 10-19-2008 Contra Wrote:Passchendaele is coming out on theatres this weekend. It looks good, Canadian made just outside Calgary. I am even thinking of going to the theater to see it, even though out "new" theater is only stereo. Who the hell builds a modern theater without surround! Hey, we saved 50 cents.

Good movie and an oldie (1956 if I remember correctly). RE: Suggestions for good war movies - animal mother - 10-19-2008 Narwan Wrote:Die Brücke. Good movie and an oldie (1956 if I remember correctly). I have seen also a remake of that on german TV. Quite good, only the performance of the actors playing the american G.I.'s was strange. It was like I would play them and I do not have a clue about acting. :) Cheers Michael RE: Suggestions for good war movies - Narwan - 10-19-2008 Hehe, so like german soldiers usually behave in american war movies (like SPR)? :whis: RE: Suggestions for good war movies - animal mother - 10-19-2008 Narwan Wrote:Hehe, so like german soldiers usually behave in american war movies (like SPR)? :whis: Not exactly. In SPR, the Germans were only targets for Cpt. Miller and the rest of the guys :). Here, it was what they were saying, how they were saying it. I did not see american soldiers how they behaved in combat in WW2, but I cannot believe they behaved like that: banal sentences with exaggerated accent. The movie itself was good and the goal was not to depict realistic combat behaviour but that part was so miserable that i had remembered it. Anyway, I do not want write more about it. This thread is about movie suggestions, not movie review.

Continuation of this serial about war in Pacific region will soon make ?

It was interesting and I enjoyed watching it, but one thing I noticed is that the Germans were "dumb". By this I mean they would have the Americans pinned down while they were behind excellent cover. Well what do you do when you are winning the fight?, get up and run around in front of the enemy to worse cover of course. German's running out of trenches, bunkers, etc etc. And then there was the ever popular hiding behind a bush. Bushes are known for their ability to stop bullets. |
