In general, Excellent...

Rating: 9/10 (1 May 1999)

This isn't nearly as good as my favorite war movie--Das Boot, but it has some similar elements that are fantastic. It isn't one sided, nor does it tell you what to think. To avoid a spoiler I won't go into detail, but the whole subplot with the translator is one of the highlights of the movie. One thing is certain--this is a must see movie (very preferably on a big screen).
