[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 2705628, member: 7157"] This thread reminded me, I saw the movie a couple weekends ago. I agree with a couple of the posters that it was overly Hollywoodized - for example, a lone Tiger with no support whatsoever going up against a platoon of Shermans? Not likely. A disabled E8 - even the mighty [B]Fury[/B] - defending a crossroads all by itself against a battalion of SS troops, and nearly wiping out the battalion for what seemed like hours, before succumbing? Yeah, right. Overall, I'd give the movie a B-, simply because it was entertaining, with a modicum of historical accuracy marred by implausible action. [/QUOTE]
