I suspected they might make the love story THE story... gets more people into the theatres, that's for sure, but a little dissappointing to hear.  I'll go see it this weekend in any case.

The bombers I saw in the trailers were Ju88s, I believe...

I hate love storys. Hate them.

Offspings of the great bards, they give a highly unrealistic picture of what love is whpo, for some reason, every woman and many men walk around with in their heads expecting to find.

Non love story oriented movies for me, please

'to pull' is a British colloquialism for having some sort of non-platonic interaction with someone of the opposite sex,

i.e. you pull a bird = pick up a woman

From what I've read in books and seen on the History Channel it's a story about Stalingrad. IRL two Russian snipers were in love and taking quite a few German heads. So Germany sent out it's best sniper to kill both of them. In the end the German sniper ended up dead. His love died somewhere in there and he kept fighting. The History Channel or Discovery Channel had a short snippet about the battle for Stalingrad a while back. It included an interview with the man, which was a bit short but still good. I just find Ed Harris with no German accent playing a German drop-dead funny!

I just saw it today.  I wouldn't call it a love story... it is primarily focused on the duel of the 2 snipers, with plenty of large scale battle scenes too.  There is of course a romantic subplot, but calling it a love story is an exaggeration.

BTW flakbait, Ed Harris with no German accent was no more ridiculous than a bunch of Russians with British accents.

I just saw it and I think it kicks ass.   The He-111 scene was great and the diving 87s added a nice touch. I would recommend seeing it.
