Everyone like my MGS4 reference? Good.
Patton is a great movie, deserving of it's praise. Scott's performance is great, from his walk, sneer a voice (which is allegedly not what Patton sounded like). He is the best part of the film. It's a shame they went for the PG rating, as I heard the real Patton had a foul mouth that is almost completely cut from the film.
I usually cannot comment on scenery, but Patton is a film of art. Huge scenes are filled with interesting objects, and the camera-work maximizes this effect. Battles and towns are beautiful to look at, and make me wish I had seen the Blu Ray instead.
I understand the point of the plot focusing on WWII, but maybe a little back story about him could've been added, maybe showing his rise. The film was lo enough, it wouldn't have hurt to add extra time.
It's strange the film is PG, the f word is used once and there are two random scenes of gore: a man with a hole through him and a man with no leg, shown graphically. They seem unnecessary in this film, about the management, not the horror of war.
One of the best movies about war ever made, Patton should be seen by cinemaphiles, war fanatics, or people interested in the man. 8.4/ 10
