Couple Decent War films

[Boriqua]

Just finished watching "Fortress of war." Its Russian so there are two things to note immediately .. you will have to read subtitles and its a bit longer than it needed to be.

I know there are some people who just wont watch a pic with subtitles so I figured I would mention it.

I thought it had some great and realistic (far as I can tell) combat scenes and all in all.... I really enjoyed it. Its hard to find a ton of modern made war pictures that are any good but my last two favorites I think are from Russia

The one I just watched
Fortress of war
and
Battle for Sevastopol

They both have some "feelings" stuff in them but plenty of gritty action and I think they were both beautiful visually.

Saw both on Amazon. If you have 2+ hours and want to see a bit of a different war film you may want to give them a shot.

Thanks for the recommendation. I just finished watching Sands of Iwo Jima (for the umpteenth time) and I enjoy watching war films and foreign films and so I'll check these out.

Be sure to post what you thought of them. I am a sucker for well shot visual movies and really enjoyed those two.

I watched Fortress of War a few weeks ago. Pretty good overall and based on a true story.
