Stalingrad

Awful. If you want to watch a film about the battle of Stalingrad watch the 1993 German film of the same name or even Enemy at the Gates. This Filmed seemed to pay no attention to the history at all. The whole movie practically takes place in one building. You get little glimpse of the scope of the battle. The film seems more of Stalinist propaganda film from the Cold War. An honest telling of what happened in the battle of Stalingrad, This is not. do yourself a favour and don't give yourself the torture of sitting through this train wreck. They're are much more deserving films on this subject you will enjoy much more. A few are Enemy at the gates, Stalingrad 1993 or even Stalingrad Dogs do you want live forever.

It looks good, but the story is kinda "meh". It has its own problems. First one: that pointless scene where soldiers are charging an "MG nest" while they are on fire. Almost every battle is in slow-motion. I'm not a military expert or a tank gunner, but damn you really have to be that lucky if you manage to one shot and damage the enemy with your anti-tank gun using a destroyed T-34. There was a scene, when one of the Red Army soldier, is "almost" captured and he still manage to grab a grenade and kill a few german soldiers. Yet again, this soldier manage to kill the colonel with "pocket" knife. You can see how bad that scene was. Another bad scene was with that tank projectile... it felt like I was in the Matrix movie for a second.

I really LIKE this film because it really represents inclement of war,but nobody can't now what really happened in Stalingrad. But,I have one defect,there in film is no modern Russian rockets,named Kacusa. Maybe,it's little hard for watching. If you watch movie like movie,lower grade,but if you understand movie and war,it can be very higher and it can be very good. People did very good job.You will like movie.The scenes were carefully created and the effects such as when the oil tanks blow and the solders come running at the Germans when they are on fire was just a great sight(Not that I like seeing people burn). The background art is the amazing. I recommend seeing it in Russian with subtitles of your language. It's just better that way. All in all,good movie and I suppose you to watch if you don't,and sorry If I have little bad English.

It's nothing to do with the flag-waving patriotism nor any kind of moral quandary, but instead the Russian blockbuster's slick, stereoscopic visuals. A sea of blue-grey is dimmed further by 3D, whilst explosions provide the majority of colourful focal points in a representation of a war-torn city that never quite feels right. It could potentially be part of the plan, for a plot imbued with a fable-like quality, but it's all far too weightless. For a drama with a heavy emphasis on spectacle, it's an odd sensation when the visuals are so alienating.
