Political Propaganda....

Rating: 5/10 (9 December 2005)

***CONTAINS SPOILERS -- AT LEAST SOME KIND OF --***
I've re-watched this film just 15 minutes ago...
And i didn't realized that there is so much political thoughts spreading from all over scenes before...
I want to congratulate Hollywood from here.
They made a movie about a Russian sniper, which many believe that doesn't even exist and also believe that it was just a made up Russian hero during the war to encourage the people just as the film shows up, and a German sniper named König, which is also made up German sniper according to the German sources, who challenges him in Stalingrad.
Action is good, sniper films always attract me much. But the thing is from the first scene to the last, fascism, communism, and socialism is criticized all over the scenes, with every dialog especially the ones between Danilov and Zaitsev, and Koulikov and Zaitsev.
But hey!.. It's a Hollywood film!...you can't expect it to criticize the capitalism, which this film comes right from its heart.Pff..
I don't say that fascism is good or communism is good or socialism is good... As long as men live all kinds of systems have their flaws.Right? All i want to say that i haven't seen a film as one sided as this one for a very long time.
Good Job Hollywood...
Apart from the political position of this film i gave it a 5/10 for it's unnecessary sexuality and making the German sniper look like a fool...
