The outstanding performance of George C. Scott is reason enough to see this WWII epic.

Rating: 8/10 (26 October 1998)

It was no surprise to me that George C. Scott won an Academy Award for his portrayal of General Patton The film is long and, at times, slow but you are taken in by Scott's performance. If you like War movies, this must rank as certainly above average and worth the time to see.By the way, note the 1948 Packard staff car driving Patton around in a film that is depicting 1943.Don't let this lack of attention to detail stop you from renting Patton.
