Gave it 4 out of 5 - thought it was fairly accurate with the exception of the final sniper vs sniper face off. Otherwise, it was a good representation of a couple of pages out of William Craig's book Enemy at the Gates.

I liked this movie overall. Its entertaining. I didn't like the "love" scene. They could have done without it. It looked too awkward. Other than that, its a good film. Ed Harris was perfect as Admiral Koenig. If you were ever into video gaming, some of the movie scenes/towns were used in Call of Duty and Red Orchastra.

Not knowing much about the the Battle of Stalingrad, I enjoyed it. I understand it takes some pretty big liberties with historical accuracy though. Apparently a number of Red Army veterans protested the portrayal of Commissars gunning down retreating Soviet troops..they said that was pure anti-communist propaganda on the part of the filmmakers.

I prefer the German 1950s film about Stalingrad, Dogs do you Want to Live for Ever? It's on YouTube in about ten parts with subtitles.

Amazing but this was on this morning in Philly.

Great picture.
