It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

As Russia has nothing to be proud of, they opened a can withfictional heroes, who are bullet, flame and steel resistant.

I have no idea what all these whiny little reviewers have a problem with. Pretty much all of them say, "its not what I was expecting". Who cares what you were expecting!!! It was an amazing movie. Well done, good acting, great story, good action, entertaining, surprisingly good script. I think all the little whiny babies need to move out of their mothers basement and get a freaking life. I'm so glad I didn't follow the reviews and instead followed my instinct based on the trailer. I really loved the movie and will recommend it to others.

Stalingrad is a mixed film, with extremes of excellence and mediocrity. Lets start with the excellence. The visual direction and effects can only be described as "stunning". From the hellish inferno of the opening scenes, through to the slowed down hand to hand combat sequences, battles and back drops, this film is breathtaking. Where it falls down to some degree is in the characterizations. The best way I can describe many of the characters is contrived.The main male lead, in particular, comes across as a war hero, poster boy. He's simply not convincing, mouthing throw away militaristic platitudes, whilst acting like a propagandists nominal notion of a hero. The other main characters fare little better, with the female lead, perhaps being the only really rounded, truly humanized, character in the group. The result is a film that's visually compelling but feels populated, to degree, by animated manikin's. This limits the films emotional impact and lends an inappropriate air of absurdity to the whole affair. Its a shame a more humanistic and less militaristic treatment was not adopted. As is the case with the excellent German film that explored the German side of the extreme human tragedy, that was Stalingrad. A seven out of ten from me and mostly for the stunning visuals.

I really LIKE this film because it really represents inclement of war,but nobody can't now what really happened in Stalingrad. But,I have one defect,there in film is no modern Russian rockets,named Kacusa.Maybe,it's little hard for watching. If you watch movie like movie,lower grade,but if you understand movie and war,it can be very higher and it can be very good.People did very good job.You will like movie.The scenes were carefully created and the effects such as when the oil tanks blow and the solders come running at the Germans when they are on fire was just a great sight(Not that I like seeing people burn). The background art is the amazing. I recommend seeing it in Russian with subtitles of your language. It's just better that way.All in all,good movie and I suppose you to watch if you don't,and sorry If I have little bad English.
