This looks rather good.

First time they've been able to get the only working Tiger into a film.

I went on my lonesome (wife not interested) to the cinema yesterday to watch.

Great action scenes (apart from the end which was daft) but not nearly enough of them. I was disappointed overall. Too much waffle and it annoyed me that such care had been taken in painting an accurate image of certain aspects of 'war' only to then go and do a number of things that would be tactically dumb and/or completely unrealistic.

Whatty said:

Liked the closing shot of used brass.

On top of the tank? Funny - it was all live ammo. Still had the projectiles still in. Was a real rookie error that I spotted immediately.

Squaddies have always been the same.

They wouldn't have stepped directly out of the Truman Show.
