my favorite war movie.
on July 11, 2015
Posted by: paul
imho this is a gem to any lover of the world war 2 genre. the song the Germans sing before the battle is cool imho. ironically this film was shot in two places Europe and possibly a desert. the tank battle should have taken place in the snow but something happened during the filming of the movie that forced a relocation of the production. we get to see how the germans actually thought this plan was going to work and how the Americans turned the tide of battle. one general responds to the german surrender with nuts as an answer. the film has a great cast of actors including charles bronson and telly savalas who worked together in the original dirty dozen movie. robert shaw plays the german officer which is a switch for him. shaw is known for playing the good guy. the sound and picture are well worth the price of the blu-ray release.

the force is with this purchase

if you are a fan of star wars this is the set for you. i purchased it to see all of the deleted footage from the six films. some of the footage from revenge of the sith should have been put back into the movie. there are some great clips from return of the jedi as well. vader calling to luke while he is on tattooine. there is also a scene with luke building a new lightsaber. some deleted footage is from the space battle over endor and the land battle on endor when han and rest first breach the bunker. picture and sound quality for all of the films is excellent imho.

one of the best movies ever made
on February 5, 2015
Posted by: paul
this movie was made by bryan singer who was involved in the transformers franchise. it is a movie i could watch a hundred times and learn something new each time. kevin spacey ending up as the villain in the end is the nicest twist of the movie. it was originally supposed to be gabriel byrne who was keyser soze but they went with spacey and it works. who would suspect his character verbal who is a stupid cripple as stated by verbal himself. the ending of the movie is a classic how verbal manages to walk off his limp and uses his left hand properly while waiting to be picked up by Kobayashi. the name that was under verbal's coffee cup. one must wonder what was real and what was bogus.

a cool flick

if you like watching our military handle alien invasions this movie is for you. aaron eckhart from batman is in it as the platoon sergeant who must lead his men and women on this mission against the aliens which is not easy. michele rodriguez is also along for the adventure. she was also part of the fast and furious movie franchise.

rambo to the rescue.
on December 21, 2014
Posted by: paul
one of the things i learned in the extras was they wanted to do a buddy movie with john travolta. instead of being in jail for what he had done in first blood rambo was sent to a mental hospital where he meets the travolta character. however this idea was scrapped. trautman gets rambo to agree to a mission for a potential pardon. rambo figures he can do some good and rescue the pow's but does not know is the head of the operation played to perfection by charles napier doesn't want that to happen and rambo is left behind when he shows up at the pickup site with a pow. the best line in the movie is when rambo tells murdock [charles napier] that he is coming for him. rambo eventually accomplishes his mission but decided to stay in asia. the only thing he wants is his country to show both him and the rescued pow's some respect. it moved me to tears.

Big let down
By bignlittlebuddy from CRESCENT CITY , CA
Even though Burt Lancaster and other stars were in this movie , it seemed very "home made" and cheap.
