Phenomenal Film-making

Rating: 10/10 (2 June 2005)

A phenomenal achievement in film-making on par with Saving Private Ryan and Band Of Brothers, and since those are my two favorite war movies, that says a lot about this film. The characters and their relationships were developed very well, and the portrayals were completely believable. To me, the most astonishing thing about this film is the fact that it is a top-quality film that was made by producers, crew, and actors whose names are virtually unknown in Hollywood. After watching the movie, I watched the featurette about how it was made. I can hardly believe that a film as good as this was produced on a budget of under a million dollars.
