A Very Good War Movie

Rating: 9/10 (3 April 2007)

I shall admit to loving war movies, so no surprise i loved this movie, well, i suppose not.
But even trying to see it from the point of view of someone who isn't a fan of war movies...this can come under "caper", "comedy", "action" The plot is intriguing, would I do what they're doing for the amount of money they stand to make? sure I would!! No spoilers: but the ending is sensible, believable, and, most importantly, makes me laugh every time i watch it.
***possible spoilers*** From oddball's tank crew to the every increasing list of people involved in the case, to the final tank fight wherein 3 Sherman's take out 3 tigers...or 2, to the great fight scenes, to the great dialogue, to the friendly fire incident...this film is pure entertainment, and pretty much clean as far as movies go!! ***end of spoilers***
The cast is pretty huge...Telly Savallas, Donald Sutherland, Clint Eastwood...who else do you need?! My advice to anyone even thinking about renting/buying this film...do it, doesn't matter your taste, this will while away a couple of hours that you will be glad you spent on it...
