- #1May 8, 2018"A very good movie about The Battle of Stalingrad, during WWII. While it is not correct in every detail, it is based on true events. This movie is based on the service of an infantry soldier that goes on to serve as a Sniper during The Battle of Stalingrad. As a sniper, he had a great many confirmed kills of enemy Officers that served to increase the morale of the Russian troops, and the Russian people. The Snipers were so good at what they did, that it served to hurt the morale of the German troops, and their supporters back home as well. This long battle helped turn the tide of the war against the German forces invading Russia. Be advised that this is a war movie, and as such, there is death and destruction(albeit simulated) that some viewers may find offensive. Don't say that I didn't warn you. If you are a history buff, use your favorite search engine(or your local library) to look up more information about this battle and/or other battles that took place during this terrible war that took the lives of many millions of people on numerous battle fronts across Europe and Africa."

I really liked that this movie was not just all about war and violence but it has a deeper and more personal story between the characters. It was also done so nicely that everything flowed together well. A great watch for those looking for the story depth that Saving Private Ryan has. "

I had hoped it would mean a shift in career for him but sadly he still isn't as big of a househould name as his brother Ralph Fiennes :("
