A great war movie

Rating: 8/10 (8 April 2004)

The sheer size and plot of the movie is matched only by the grandiose size of the true battle . It is a brilliant war film with every detail down to the last accurate percentage that Richard Attenborough could get.Everybody in this film plays there role to the max most of them even look like them ,and the sheer bravery of the British troops on the bridge and of the Americans crossing the Waal to enable the British ground forces to get across the Njimegen Bridge is so wonderfully potrayed that I think this is the best war movie ever made even though Saving Private Ryan is excellent ,this just has something else very long loads of big stars great soundtrack from that very openening moment the credits roll your into a terrific film that portrays the horror and macarbeness of war wonderfully
