T-34 The movie

[-332FG-Gordon200]

 

[=FEW=Hauggy]

I have yet to see a good (recent) Russian movie about the war, you can say watever you want about Holliwood but at least they can sometimes make a decent storyline unlike watever comes out of Russia these days.

Let's hope this won't be yet another terrible patriotic movie, a good point is the tanks look like real ones but the SS officer looks a bit stereotypical almost like a Marvel supervillain.

I've seen a couple decent movies from the Soviet era so there's still hope.

I liked the 1960 movie Normandie-Niémen or  Нормандия — Неман.

The 1985 Come and see  Иди и смотри was also quite good

Das Boot was a good movie, not Russian and not about tanks but Subs, however not Hollywood.

Das Boot fue una buena película, no rusa y no sobre tanques sino sobre Subs, sin embargo no sobre Hollywood.

The best submarine movie of all time by far. Recently they have returned to shoot a miniseries of 3 chapters, to see how ...

Thats the thing i'm interested in Russian movies even if most of them suck nowadays.

I know Das Boot, clearly a good movie.

Good tank movies are very rare..

 

Although not WW2, I liked The Beast of war.

 

I like Fury and Saving private Ryan, but for some reason the actual tank stuff is always messed up in movies.

We all know the "tiger" in Saving private Ryan where they shoot through the vision port..  and it wasn't really a tiger anyway.

The engagement in Fury was nice because they used the actual Bovington Tiger, but the engagement was very unrealistic..  I mean..  why on earth would the tiger leave it's position.

They just did it because visually it's interesting to see it move.

But those shermans wouldn't really stand a chance when they try to get closer. Better to just start shooting and try to disorrient it and hope for the best outcome.

 

I saw the t34 trailer..  and it also looks more like an action movie..    still interested in checking it out.

I haven’t seen SPR, but doesn’t Tom Hanks shoot a Tiger’s viewport with an M1911, it blows up, then the Mustang that actually blew it up with an AT rocket flies over?

I thought that the recent Stalingrad was pretty good. It has a silly part where they ricochet a 37mm AT gun round off a destroyed T-34 and into a StuG III, destroying it, but other than that the action was good and the story decent.

 

(Though I’ll admit, I might be a bit biased. The director, Fyodor Bondarchuk, is the son of Sergei Bondarchuk, one of my favourite directors. I mean, he landscaped a place in Ukraine so much that it became a replica of the Waterloo battlefield, then got 17,000 Napoleonic French, British, and Prussian uniforms, 17,000 muskets, sabres, and cannons, then trained 17,000 Red Army soldiers how to wear them, use them, and march appropriately, and made an insanely historically accurate movie where Christopher Plummer plays the Duke of Wellington.)

ah yes. Totally forgot about Stalingrad..  that was pretty good.

 The same reason why the movie industry still use defibrilator paddles in trauma scenes. ?

 How is this even possible? Do you live in a cave and if so how do manage electricity to run IL2 Great Battles?

There is a Finish tank movie with bad actors but a lot of real tanks. Tali Inhalat or something like this. Parts on youtube.
