Serious Video this was a Good Series but not as Good at the Band of Brothers ,,,, The Bloody 100 aka Masters of the Air was a good series on Apple Tv

I was watching it perhaps 10 minutes before getting headache. T-55 in Lapland and Germans dressed as characters in some arcade boom bang crash video game. And as far from historical facts as can be.

I like more realistic ones, like this:





There's also new version of it, but at least in youtube it's without subs.

I didn't make it very far into Sisu either. Wasn't all that impressed.

Redtails..the p51 vs 262 ho scene where the 30mm hits looked like .22 shorts.. :rolleyes:

There are so many more poor war movies than good ones these days...don't think fury nor sisu should be listed with the good ones

Most people in Hollywood have no idea how the real world works.  So they put out movies with stuff that is ridiculously unrealistic even when they are intending for it to be realistic.
