Better than most World War II movies were.

Rating: Null/10 (7 September 2002)

Patton is the best war movie ever made. There have been many war movies like it, but this one is forever. You cannot say that this movie is not accurate without looking at the real news footage about Patton. Granted there was a physical difference between the real Patton and Scotts portrait but when the movie rolls across the big screen, size does not matter ! George C. Scott's version of General Patton will always be the most mimicked version of all time. The version played by George Kennedy is dull and does not deliver the deep impact that the original did. The video release of this movie has been through the many different formats including the Selectavision Disc, VHS, Beta, Laser Disc, and now DVD. Why Patton the movie survives the different format changes is because what would a video store and a video collection be without a copy of one of the greatest war movies of all time. Be sure and check it out or buy it and you will not be disappointed. Rest assured, THAT'S AN ORDER SOLDIER!
