[QUOTE="Toujours Pret, post: 2706050, member: 6135"] I had looked forward to this movie, as the first tank movie since Kelley's Heroes. The prerelease hype over the attention to detail in the production was not totally false. having served in armor ( the tanks of the late 60's and early 70's were not that far removed from WWII armor as far as their mechanics and fire control) the thing they got right was the mud, the familial rapport of the crew and the fatigue shown by guys who were constantly working to keep things running. While getting that look right, the other details left a lot to be desired. The infantry types appeared to have no clue what they were doing, and the plot with its climatic battle scene wound up being silly. Still, I didn't feel cheated of the admission price or the two hours it took to watch. [/QUOTE]
