Am I the only one that thought this movie was wierd?
I didn't feel like WWII what so ever, it felt like some half assed battle with cheap tanks.
I'm no tank expert, but what kinda shit tiger tanks were they? They looked like some russian tank with a quick coat of 'JOE'S PREMIUM QUICK DRY GREY PAINT'
Unless someone can proove me wrong i'd like to know if it was a tiger or not,
who shoots a tank with a 30. cal aswell? bit of a donut aint he?
charles bronson just makes me laugh, what a ledgend.
that tank commander geezer looked cool what's his name, OH and what the hell was that singing for, i bursted out in laughter when it's was all quiet around the young tank crew boys then all of a sudden a guy sings 'Obbbbbbbbb's sturmt oder schneit'
What's that song called/ about?
and what's with the cheap tanks and cheap fat men shooting at cheap tanks with cheap 30.cals
Yeah I've seen that movie and was wondering the same thing.
And what about the German lines.
I cant write it in german but they always say the same thing..."It came from over there" ..over and over again....
Nuts(really happened) hehe that is an old movie, i really dont think they have the budget to have those real tanks , i didnt think it was that bad , if they had the equipment they have today it would be much better.
One of the things that sort of makes me mad about some of the old WWII movies is the way they portray the germans as being stupid in a way, don't get me wrong I still enjoy a lot of the films, but I think the germans have been very wrongly portrayed in some of these films. I haven't seen Battle of the Bulge, but I've heard that it isn't that great.

It's the famous panzer-lied (tank-song).

Mit donnerndem Motor so schnell wie der Blitz,
Dem Feinde entgegen im Panzer geschützt.
Voraus den Kameraden, im Kampfe ganz allein - ja ganz allein
So stoßen wir tief in die feindlichen Reih'n.
Wenn vor uns ein feindlicher Panzer erscheint,
Dann Vollgas gegeben und ran an den Feind!
Was nützt unser Leben für uns'res Volkes Wehr - ja Volkes Wehr?
Für Deutschland zu sterben ist uns're höchste Ehr'!
Mit Sperren und Paks hält der Gegner uns auf,
Wir lachen darüber und fahren nicht drauf!
Und schüttelt er auch grimmig und wütend seine Hand - ja seine Hand
Wir suchen uns Wege die keiner sonst fand.
Und läßt uns im Stich einst das treulose Glück,
Und kehren wir nie mehr zur Heimat zurück,
Trifft uns die Todeskugel, ruft uns das Schicksal ab - ja Schicksal ab
Dann ist uns der Panzer ein ehernes Grab.
Yes, it's an impresseive march I used to play it as a kid with my piano teacher (who knows a lot about WW2), but some neighbours didn't like that because they remember the orignial lyrics

Well, the film Iron Cross does make an exception, even tho it's US (?) production. Great film. I guess so does Stalingrad too. Have it in my DVD shelf, but have not yet dared to watch it due to idiotic dubbing! God.. Why the fuck must they ruin films, that are aimed for people who have learnt to read already by dubbing them? Who the hell want's to listen germans, who would originally speak german in the film, "speak" english with ze german accschent over the original soundtrack. Terrible! Why could have they just not added subtitles, I'd think that would have been easier too.
Not only that, theres a long text, lenght of few sentences, in the very start of the film, in german, and they have not even bothered to translate that.
