War Is Hell!!

Rating: 10/10 (26 April 2004)

This movie is the best movie ever made depicting the World War II era. It is the most realistic, violent, true to life depiction of what WWII was really about. Most of the previous movies, romanticized the experience. This movie gives you gritty, no nonsense look at exactly what the troops faced, from their food, down to the vocabulary. You come to understand why most veterans from this war, never mentioned what they experienced. It's about as close as you can get to war without actually being in it. This movie does for WWII, what Platoon did for Vietnam. I still can't see why this movie didn't get Best Picture over "Shakesphere In Love". Spielberg did get Best Director, but the movie should have won as well.
This is a must see movie.
