War is in reality much uglier

Rating: 5/10 (18 October 2014)

While I think the movie does portray war a little more accurately than most war movies, it's still very conservative in terms of showing the real horrors of war, which is really what I was hoping for. Also, I know it's an American movie but I wish someone had to balls to really show that war is ugly on both sides and not just the enemy.
Examples: Women was portrayed as wanting to have sex with the American soldiers, which never happens, usually rape is what happens. There was in fact rape portrayed but it was almost converted into a love story. In reality, nearly any women that is on the enemy side is usually raped and then thrown aside or killed. Heck soldiers even rape when they're our 'allies' (read up on American military in Okinawa)
There were civilians killed even children and old people but some mostly made it look like Germany is the only one who would do it.
Despite all this I still appreciated the movie for taking movies one step closer to the real reality of war and all of the evil that comes out. As someone who dislikes war movies, this one was pretty decent. Although this movie still portrays these soldiers as heroes (the last scene was a little bit ridiculous) and that always bothers me. Case in point, there was a little kid behind me who kept saying "they deserved it".
