Das Boot and Downfall. Two of the best movies I have ever seen.

Stalingrad. Dunno about rooskie ones.

Of course we're completely discounting all the great WWII German propaganda crap, like Bomber Squadron Lutzow, Kolberg and other classics. Again, dunno about rooskie ones (if you're not too fixated on WWII, Aleksandr Nevski always brings down the house.)

Its a good book though. Although the movie was based off it, it had nothing to do with the movie:confused: :confused:

You'd have to read it to understand

Das Boot and Der Untegang ftw. Though there are more but I generally suck at remembering titles and name. :p

Sorry for digging up this old thread, but the best soviet war movie hasnīt been mentioned yet:

Come and See - Idi i smotri (1985)

Itīs about a boy joining the resistance in white russia in 1943.
Believe me, you wonīt be able to get this movie out of your mind for a very long time !

User comment from IMDB:
Quote:

Death, destruction and despair
"Come And See" is a difficult, violent and surprisingly poetic movie, compared to which even classics like "Saving Private Ryan" (Spielberg payed a homage to this movie on SPR's beginning) or "The Thin Red Line" seems just artificial. This is the real thing!
Trivia:
Quote:

  • Many of the uniforms seen throughout the film are originals.
  • Live ammunition was used in the film - in interviews, actor Aleksei Kravchenko has described actual bullets passing some 10 centimeters above his head.
