    It was nice to see a different kind of WWII movie. We're used to look at the life of coalition forces but now it's all about the Germans.

    Stalingrad was a brutal battle and that can be seen on the big screen also. It's gritty and feels realistic. The action though is not so goo...( read more)d, it hasn't aged well in that perspective.

    The acting is throughout the movie on a good level but the story could've been a bit more interesting. A good war movie but not that exceptional.

    This is an exciting account of the Battle for Stalingrad, but it is whitewashed, not in the sense that it is biased in one side or the other, but because it only hints at the challenges, barbarism and brutality endured by and engaged in on both sides. The attempted siege of Stal...( read more)ingrad was like nothing else in WWII, but this movies at least provides a small glimpse.
