EXCELLENT

Rating: 10/10 (18 July 2002)

I enjoyed every moment of this movie from the opening scene until the very end. The suspense and tension was great and the atmosphere of the war was forever present throughout the film. I felt like I was there as I shared the various locations with the snipers- feeling the cold; laying on the ground, rocks and stubble and waiting anxiously.
I also felt I've seen the best fully clothed love scene in my entire life.
This movie brought to mind the old Sam Peckinpah war thriller Cross of Iron where the Russians were pitted against the Germans.
In summary, another testament to the courage of the men, women and children that battle the invaders of their land and their willingness to die for what they believe in- the salvation of their country.
I gave this movie a ten because it deserves it.
