The year is 1942 and the Nazis are cutting a deadly swath through Russia. Under the leadership of Kruschev, the citizens of Stalingrad are mounting a brave resistance, spurred by the exploits of their local hero, Vassili Zaitsev. An expert sniper, Vassili's deeds have become legendary - thanks to propaganda produced by Vassili's best friend, a political officer named Danilov. To stop Vassili, the Germans dispatch their best sniper, Major Konig to Stalingrad. When Vassili and Danilov both fall in love with a beautiful soldier, Danilov deserts his friend, leaving Vassili to face his German counterpart alone. As the city burns, Vassili and Konig begin a cunning game of cat and mouse, waging a private war for courage, honor and country.
A very exciting war movie... definately worth a look!
Investigation finished: 2001-09-02
Story: 7/10 - Based on a true story that's probably as true as The Texas chainsaw massacre, but who cares... it's showbiz right.
Acting: 8/10 - A great cast, Ed Harris is brilliant.
Violence: 6/10 - Snipers tend to go for the famous head shot, and that means it's gonna be a mess.
Nudity: 1/10 - A war movie with lots of skin, that would be bizarre.
Coolness: 5/10 - Lots of suspense and shooting, and a little lovin' for the women.
...a litle something from our surveilance?
