After 20 years, this motion picture remains one of the most awesome war flicks of all time!

Rating: 10/10 (29 October 1999)

I had first heard about this picture while still in high school through my art teacher... a history buff and avid war film enthusiast. It wasn't until several years later that I finally got to experience the motion picture myself. I had already seen a number of Peckinpah's films and thoroughly enjoyed Cross of Iron. Rarely do you see motion pictures displaying "enemy" forces as 3 dimensional characters. This aspect alone makes the movie exceptional. After 20 years, this motion picture remains one of the most awesome war flicks of all time.
