I'm sure I'll add to this as I finish watching my second viewing.

For anyone looking at these reviews to decide whether to watch it or not. Anyone can like or dislike a movie. But the reviews that were bad based on accuracy or even stating soldiers weren't like this. This is only a snapshot of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers who were fighting. For every one or two didn't follow orders, or stealing gold teeth. There were thousands of others following orders, conducting themselves respectfully. Sure there were scared kids who couldn't move, who crapped their pants, who risked life and limb to help a fellow soldier. I believe that they were trying to give us a snapshot of the good and bad, as well as everything in between. My father described much of what I saw here, and many of the soldiers who were out for souvenirs and themselves. But he described many many more who took care of each other and of the great many heroic things that soldiers did for each other without batting an eye or ever mentioning it again because that's the type of men they were. I see what our soldiers did during WWII as heroic in itself. Risking their lives so that we their children and grandchildren could live better lives that they have.
