I thought it was well done

Rating: 9/10 (21 November 2005)

With the exception of the nitnoid of two 101st soldiers in the battle before the unit got there, I thought this was a well made film. Stumbled across it on the History Channel this past drill weekend. I missed the early scene of the actual massacre. I'm curious as to why they let something like that slip, especially with all the attention to detail they seemed to expend on other aspects of the film. This is one of the few films on the Bulge (Band of Brothers being another) that seemed to capture the amount of snow that was reported to be there. I wonder where they filmed it. I think that they must have filmed it here in the States because the woods are not as orderly as they are in the actual battle area.
