Unrelenting

Rating: 8/10 (8 February 2003)

Well, if there was ever a movie to make you sink to your knees and thank the good Lord that you weren't in Russia during WW II, this is it. An absolutely brilliant film, unrelenting in its graphic depiction of the horrors and filth of war. Uniformly excellent acting from all of the principals and supporting cast adds to our identification with some characters and revulsion for others. This isn't my kind of movie, nor is it for the squeamish, but it's a fantastic film.
