One of my new favorite war movies

Rating: 8/10 (17 December 2015)

I've seen many films about war, Saving Private Ryan and Apocalypse now, but I haven't seen something much like Patton. Francis Ford Coppolas screen writing on this film is magnificent. Patton is great for it's acting. George C. Scott does an absolutely phenomenal job portraying the great American General. I took a World War II history class, and when we talked about Patton he is exactly as Patton truly talked and acted. The opening speech Patton gives is amazing also and the lighting was good too. The cinematography is decent but it's a war drama so I don't expect too much out of it but it was fine for the genre. The writing and the acting is what truly guides this film to make it as famous as it is today. I really like it, especially since it has some minor flaws. I would easily recommend this to anyone who wants to watch a good war drama film.
