From the outset I felt drawn into this highly impressive film. The grim and cold environment, the horrors and violence of a savage and brutal war are conveyed brilliantly.
The film centres on a four man tank crew led by Sargent Brad Pitt who has to guide his men on a number of deadly missions deep in German territory right at the end of WWII.
The action is violent and lethal but is intercut with brilliant dialogue and fabulous character moments. There is an extended scene where Pitt and his young apprentice machine gunner recuperate at a German town house inhabited by two young women, they are then joined by Shia LaBoeff and the dodgy police bloke turned zombie from The Walking Dead... and the tension ramps up.
There is the obligatory battle with a Tiger tank which is seat of your pants stuff followed by cataclysmic fight with a regiment of SS... which concludes bloodily.
This film is probably the best I have seen this year and I totally recommend going to see it.
Rating: 9/10
