The best war movie ever made...without a doubt!

Rating: 10/10 (2 July 2015)

A star-studded cast and an award-winning director...THE BEST OF THE BEST!
This is an awesome endeavor and a complete success for all those involved in this magnificent recreation of such a monumental World War II battle that didn't exactly pan-out for the Allies the way it was planned...due to upper-eshelon clowning leadership!
'Operation: Market Garden' was an ambitious plan that just didn't work out at all for the Allies...sadly.
Eisenhower, against all practicality, but, following equal diplomatic rights for the semi-defeated British, chose the ZERO Montgomery to lead this operation...when he knew all the while that the HERO Patton was the man for the job. Even German High Command thought for sure that Patton would lead...and, when asked by Field Marshal Rundstedt "Montgomery or Patton?" Field Marshal Model answered "Patton!" Rundstedt then exclaimed "Yes! Patton! I wish it would be Montgomery, but, even Eisenhower isn't that stupid!"
Almost all the allied mistakes were British:
1. Dropping food and supplies to the Germans, and, 'berets' to the British;
2. bringing the wrong crystals for their radios because a cowardly British major wouldn't speak-up ("if anyone rocks the boat, it won't be me:);
3. sacking a good British major in Intelligence for discovering that the Germans had a hidden SS Panzer Division lead by the hero Obergruppenfuhrer Bittrich, but, Lieutenant General Browning didn't want to go to Eisenhower and Montgomery with this information;
4. after the US 82nd Airborne were almost wiped-out during their famous and heroic crossing of the Waal River and taking the bridge, then, meeting up with the Guards Armoured Division, the British refused to advance until they received 'official' orders to do so (the wrong radio crystals, again); etc.
Thousands of allied soldiers were squandered in senseless battles due to Eisenhower's stupid, liberal decision so that Montgomery could lead a futile and losing operation that Patton could have won with much less casualties!?!?
Then...the clown becomes president!?!?
