A good entertaining movie. Action oriented, not so realistic ( don't expect a band of brothers or a 1993 Stalingrad here ). Literally: Hollywood Captain America, made in version. Without the super powers, of course.
Beside Fury and a few others, no so many movies take the time to describe what was happening inside tanks during WW2.
However, it has flaws: acting and scripts are soso, plot armours, full of clichés and weird slow motions ( if you saw the Russian movie Stalingrad, you know what I'm talking about ). Also, if you are a history nerd you'll see that, just like in Fury, some tank battles are heavily unrealistic. As the plot itself, to be honest. However...
SPOILER ALERT!
The humanity between the protagonist and the antagonist save the movie, in my opinion.
It's just a few seconds in the end, and a few minutes during the movie, but it takes the time to show that both the protagonist and the antagonist are human beings fighting with honour, with even some kind of respect for each other.
A small detail which, for me, made a difference.
END SPOILER ALERT
In anyways, the movie remains an entertaining epic piece, and one of the few talking mostly about the mechanical warfare during WW2. As a result, and even if the plot armour was huge, I had a good time watching this one.
