Great movie about the Battle of Stalingrad 1942 World War II

Rating: 8/10 (12 April 2007)

Incredible cinematography!!, High level acting!! and excellent directing!! really good war and historical film!.
In this film i found an incredible representation of the Battle of Stalingrad, maybe the bloodiest battle in human history; with so touching scenes that will make you feel highly impressed about this war. The heroic acts of Vassili Zaitzev, are pretty well represented bye Jude Law; the cruelty of the war and its tactical movements are well shown here; with scenes that freeze me, like the killing of the soldiers that cowardly and scared retired from battle; and the air attack to the Russian boats.
The movie is about Vassili Zaitzev (Jude Law), a great Russian sniper in the Battle of Stalingrad against the Nazi Germans, and who maintained a sniper's duel with a great German Nazi sniper, Major Konig (Ed Harris), Vassili make a friendship with political officer Danilov, that publish constantly his killings and gave hope to a country that was being invaded by a Nazi empire!
About the acting: Jude Law, simply, the best actor in the movie, showing a deep and very human side of a great soldier. Joseph Fiennes, really good as political and intelligent Russian reporter and publisher. Ed Harris, impacting and cold as his character, Rachel Weisz, good acting as a strong and passionate woman. Bob Hoskins and Ron Perlman are good too.
Jean-Jaques Arnaud makes it excellent again! 8/10!
