"Stalingrad" unprofessional gaze

396
Almost a week has gone since the premiere of Fyodor Bondarchuk’s film “Stalingrad” (there were also pre-premiere shows in Volgograd). It was not possible to get to the premiere itself (that is, on the first day of the screening) of the film, which was initially somewhat upsetting. Then the feeling of frustration was transformed into "it is better", since it was possible, before actually watching, to carefully read the materials in the form of reviews, reviews and evaluation articles, which literally flooded a wide variety of publications. Film critics, non-specialists, as well as people who consider themselves to be nothing more than freshly baked film critics who are ready to spread out the script, directing and acting in the film on the shelves, began to fill various forums, blogs and other platforms with their impressions of Stalingrad. At the same time, some comments and assessments are such that two opinions can be made about their author: either this person managed to write his own review and didn’t see the movie at all, or at least Quentins Tarantino or James Cameron did it, behind which are placers of masterpieces, but because they have every right to any statement about any picture.



After reading dozens of various reviews, the desire to see Fyodor Bondarchuk’s film only increased. I am not a film critic, and therefore I am not going to present my personal opinion about the film as a kind of professional assessment of Stalingrad. I will say the following: what I saw on the screen in the IMAX 3D format, I (again, personally) really impressed me. I see no reason to retell the plot of the film, as this can only harm the person who is going to see the film with his own eyes. But to speak out from the point of view of an ordinary viewer, an amateur from the cinema, and to speak out not only about Stalingrad, but also about negative reviews on the Internet, rippling on the Internet, he considered it necessary.

Immediately it should be said that the film will be difficult to watch to the person who came to the cinema with the sole purpose to compare the real events of the Battle of Stalingrad and what is shown in the film. Such people for trying to compare the calibers of "cinema" and real weapons, the bends of the Volga riverbed in 1942 and 2012, the height of the tops of the boots or the “splitting” of human viscera from a projectile rupture risk completely forgetting that this is not a documentary, but an artistic tape, in which documentary, of course, plays an important role, but still it should not dominate the rest.

It will be difficult to watch the film and the person who decides from the moment of the start of the viewing will certainly compare the film of Fyodor Bondarchuk with the films of other directors (both past and present).

Before watching, I read a review about a film of the following nature: they say, a film about how several smeared with soot actors depicting Soviet fighters, together with a girl, sit in the basement and wait for Bondarchuk to spend the last cent of the 30 million allocated to him ... And the same person immediately writes that “Stalingrad” doesn’t fit into the soles of the old Soviet films “Only old men go to battle” or “... And the dawns here are quiet”. Well, the “commentator” in his thoughts is clearly inconsistent: according to the same logic, he had to write that in his film Stanislav Rostotsky told how a foreman and several girls-fighters “endlessly” roam the woods; that the film by Leonid Bykov is not about those pilots who spend their time daily exclusively in air rams, but about “some other” - those who dance and sing.

This is me to the fact that if a person came to watch a movie with a desire to find only minuses in it and with the thesis that before the grass was juicier, the mountains are higher and the stars are brighter, then such a person, excuse me, cheat on any movie, no matter who he took it off, whoever appeared in it, and what storyline in it would have developed ...

“Stalingrad” is a film that was shot not in 60's or in 70's. Therefore, we should not expect a certain repetition from the film. history Soviet cinematographic tradition, no matter how wonderful it is. This film is just different. It is modern, it is an event, and it looks different. And yet, and it is simply impossible not to note today, it is interesting not only for film aesthetes, but also for representatives of modern youth. When you see in the cinema, the interest is shown by representatives of the middle and older generations, as well as by people, let's say, until 20 or so, when you don’t see attendants with popcorn or you can see them side, then it says a lot today. Even the so-called “places for kisses” at “Stalingrad” turn into places for interested viewing. This is evident, and the audience interest in the hall, if I may say so, is felt.

It is noteworthy that during the viewing, the audience gathered (and these were people of different age groups) did not utter a single caustic word, and no one had left the hall before the end of the show, which they often had to face in other pictures. As they say, whether the audience at this moment gathered extremely intelligent, or whether the film really hurt everyone sitting in the hall ... As it really happened there, it doesn't even matter anymore. It is clear that the Bondarchuk tape is of interest.

The film was made in the wrong way, so that at every stage of the plot development, it would be scrupulous to reveal the historical course of the Stalingrad battle. This is a film in which the Battle of Stalingrad itself is chosen as the background of two developing love stories at once. Of course, someone may not like it, someone will declare that this is some kind of military love glamor, and love, they say, is not the place in war, someone might argue that he would have shot everything differently — certainly it is better, historically verified and, of course, cheaper, and the “saved” millions of dollars would be distributed to orphans ... But lately, such demagogy is all the time: lean out for a couple of seconds, shout out something absurd and right there in the bushes - they say, mission accomplished, moral satisfaction obtained.

In Stalingrad, Fyodor Bondarchuk made an attempt to saturate the plot with a multitude of intersecting processes, and this, in my humble judgment, was possible. The film is not so much about the war, but about the fact that the war - it, like life, is different, multifaceted - cannot be displayed in one black or one white.

The film is capable to cause the most powerful emotions in any normal person, the effect of empathy, participation. The viewer is immersed in this atmosphere (the technologies applied here, of course, play one of the most important roles). At the same time, “Stalingrad” is not for those who come to the cinema to have a rest, and this film is not for regular TNT viewers (not switching to other TV channels), although for such a contingent “Stalingrad” would be the best medicine for an unhealthy “gee-gee” -manias "and total" pofigizma. "

There are historical inaccuracies, there are exaggerations. But once again, for a moment, this is a feature film ... And the work, the authors of which do not pretend at all to position themselves as authors of video sequences to a school history textbook. And any book materialists will find what they want to find: even in the documentary video footage of the Battle of Stalingrad itself (this, of course, not about the film “Stalingrad”), they can see something that does not fit into their understanding of history - they say everything is another was - heard, we know ...

In general, “Stalingrad” is, unequivocally, an event in the national cinema, which is difficult to ignore and for which it is difficult to remain indifferent.

      I watched the film in 3D, it was very beautiful, of course I was waiting for a film about the war, but I received a film about love in the war, but I liked the film. At the cinema search, many lovers of spitting in Russian cinema did their job, and 12% of those who rated the film as 1 out of 10 said that brainwashing with Hollywood makes itself felt.

          The film is AMAZING, AMAZING, my husband and I went recently .... I honestly thought that there would be just one shot, shooting and blood ... but no, an amazing game of actors, an amazing idea ... show war, dedication, love , feelings, devotion (and what is most interesting devotion and love contrary to circumstances), joy to simple trifles when such a nightmare is around, it’s great ... and moreover, it pleased any imitation of Hollywood.

            I can not resist, I will put the article in full (or in parts)
            A petition to ban the film by Fyodor Bondarchuk "Stalingrad", addressed to the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation, was filed by a certain Pavel Morozov from Samara. The petition requires a complete ban on film rental in Russia and abroad, as well as the withdrawal of applications for the Oscar. The document states that Bondarchuk’s film, which was almost entirely shot with state funds in the amount of 1 billion Russian rubles (i.e., with taxpayers' money), shows the low patriotism of the Soviet people, and “in fact, the main character of the film is a German officer who is shown as intelligent , a noble person (which is the undisguised heroization of Nazism, the prohibition of which Russia is seeking from the UN). ”
            In addition, the petition contains a demand to hold accountable the decision-makers on financing the painting "Stalingrad" and to consider the question of their lifelong exclusion from the commissions and councils that decide on the allocation of state funds for films, as well as members of the council that checked the historical authenticity of the painting "Stalingrad." At the moment, about 1500 people have signed the document, including not only Russians, but also Belarusians, Ukrainians, Moldovans, residents of other CIS countries and Europe. On the site where the petition is posted, signatories publish commentary justifying why they advocate banning the film made by Bondarchuk Jr. Evgeny Prokofiev, Torzhok, Russia: “This is the glorification of Nazism in a country that defeated fascism. Shame on the son of the great Bondarchuk! ”
            Veronika Mikhalchuk, Pinsk, Belarus: “My great-grandfather died during the war, and my husband’s living grandfather was very angry and upset after watching this“ masterpiece ”. Litvinenko Irina, Zelenograd, Russia: “You cannot use the sacred for every Russian person as a backdrop, as a backdrop for a third-rate American shooting film.” Bogdan Viktorovich, Gomel, Belarus: "It’s painful to rewrite history with corrupt creatures." Sergey Potashev, Kiev, Ukraine: “There is a lot of history for the Ukrainian people - a part of the Russian history. And Velika Vіtchiznyana vіyna - the whole part of the country from the top. I do not spit on any any young Bondarchuk younger. For the Motherland, for Stalin! ”Elena Dunn, Luton, United Kingdom:“ What F. Bondarchuk shot is a film about nothing mixed with creative sexual suffering amid “plywood” scenery. To shoot such a thing with the name “Stalingrad” is a slap in the face not only to our grandfathers and fathers who liberated the world from fascism, but also to all who value our history. "It is impossible to allow playful and creative little hands of businessmen from holy art to paw."

          Most likely I agree with your opinion. But the whole family went to the film and we do not regret it. For the children, although it looked pretty hard for them, it was just NECESSARY to see something like that. It is impossible to educate a full-fledged person on "Univer" and "Interns". And good films are shown on "Zvezda", as if on purpose, at a fairly late time ...

He is a vile mockery at the memory of our ancestors who died. ” Tatyana Kuznetsova, Almaty, Kazakhstan: “One gets the feeling that the most terrible enemy of the Russian people is the Russian“ creative ”intelligentsia, so to speak. Please do not let this happen ... for hire beyond your borders. We are disgusted to watch it. " Demyan Andreev, Ufa, Russia: “My grandfather is all in orders for Stalingrad. It went through and lay down in the grave of the house. The first time I thanked the sky, that he does not see this. " Vladimir Romanenko, Ivanovo, Russia: “I am against the moral rehabilitation of the Nazis.”
              Alexander Ermolyuk, Chisinau, Moldova: “My father fought in the south of Ukraine and Russia, 2 times left the encirclement. The German drove the remnants of their division into the mountains of the Caucasus. So here. The content of the film is completely contrary to what he told about the 1942-43 period. ” Lilia Kuksa, Germany: “One cannot disgrace the memory of the people who defended Stalingrad. The Germans are more honest than the young businessman Bondarchuk, who trades in the memory of the defenders of Stalingrad and the Soviet Victory. ”

                  Don’t you take IT into your head ...

                  This summer, one "shot down pilot" with a suspicious number, dashed off a similar article, in spirit, about that "ever-memorable woman" ...
                  How many, "denouncing" the director, responses, there were - do not count. There are no less similar "FOR".

                  Everyone who is noted here for one reason or another, wants them to be heard - this is primary. And what, in this case it will be said - a second time. The main thing is to light up (pride is a sin?).

                  I am not delighted with the personnel of Bondarchuk Sr. as an actor, and with the already sore mouth, the mention of "They fought for the Motherland." I can add "black water" to the address of other, almost canonical, films about the Great Patriotic War, filmed in the 60s - 70s.
                  But I do not consider it necessary to do it. feature films and documentaries are two, as they say in Odessa, big differences. It is possible and necessary to discuss the artistic value of the film. But talking about some political component is incorrect, at least.

          This is already a standard excuse "I have a film here not about war, but about people, about love in war." For some reason, some directors, both ours and Hollywood, can make films about the war, while not forgetting about people, and for some you have to look for such an excuse.

            You see, that's all, I emphasize - ALL Soviet films about the war were about people in this war! About how the war affects their fates, about how they cope with the trials that have fallen to their lot. After all, from the technical point of view, in old Soviet films, German tanks are entirely "plywood tigers" (and they appear already in 41) or something completely inconceivable with a square tower, in the role of "messengers" and "fockers" our "lavochkin" and etc., but films from this and take for the soul, because war is the background - the main thing is man.
            I saw a couple of Amer’s films about the war - technically, everything’s tip-top: the uniform of the soldiers, weapons, tanks are excellent replicas, but you don’t see a person — some tin soldiers shoot at each other and utter pathos in the control places, well, stupid Amer’s of course, humor hasn’t gone anywhere ...

              I agree, but there are also wonderful works by the Americans, for example, the same "Pearl Harbor" seems to be about war, but it also shows how war changes destinies in a love triangle ... Takes you by the soul ... Makes you empathize

                  Right, of course. Exceptional films are rare in the United States these days. But if you remember the classics of American cinema, then "Apocalypse" or, say, "Platoon" films are cult and make you think about serious things ...

              And you do not rewind, but look. If you need films about people, then it’s strange why you weren’t interested in anything other than the "destruction of the harbor" and "air battles"? A life story and not a fantastic one, two guys, one girl, a classic of the genre, friendship, envy, rivalry, duty, love and war.

                  Koreans are making awesome movies. It is a pity that many pictures do not reach us. The movie "Welcome to Donmakgol" shocked me. It is on the internet, though without translation, only Russian captions, but the play of the actors and the plot is fascinating.
                  The plot in a nutshell: after the fierce fighting, the same village, torn from civilization even by Korean standards, includes several fighters of the opposing armies - the Communists and Southerners.
                  The film captures from the very beginning, and does not release until the very end.

The main IDEA of the film itself was tried to convey to Bondarchuk. After such films, I think there will be much fewer young people who consider Americans to be the main winners in the war. Besides the plus from me, the rating is up.

            Good day. Stalingrad has not yet looked. And, from the old excellent films about the Second World War, I think 'They fought for the Motherland' I have watched it many times, but I have never had such a lump in my throat. My two grandfathers went through the whole war, but I regret that they told very little about the war, although I asked for it as a boy. Only later I realized how hard it was for them to remember about the war. Yesterday on TV on Zvezda they showed a program about the Baltic SS men and their punitive operation "Winter's Tale" on the border of Russia, Belarus and Ukraine. The wife could not look, went into another room. And then these nedobitki consider us invaders and arrange parades, bastard! Sorry, ate not much out of topic, just under the impression to this day. That's what needs to be shown more on central channels so that the younger generation knows and remembers, not these idiotic shows.

        The fact that the film was made here speaks volumes. Those who are looking for bloopers in this film also show themselves on vacation, when, having arrived at the resort, they begin to count the stars, look for shoals, be dissatisfied with everything around. There is a category of people who are always dissatisfied, they believe that everyone owes them. Savages who have the opportunity to culturally rest, education is zero, but they consider themselves D'artanyans who have done a bunch of useful things in life.
        The second - the film is still about the war, about those events. Young people need to be prepared not only for life, but also for war, so that there is no panic, fear, they are ready to kill and win by cunning for the Motherland, to defeat the enemy everywhere. Everything else just needs to be ignored, the goal of the film is correct - youth

          About bloopers. In modern films, there are often a lot of them (blunders). That form is not clear what historical period, then the weapon, which at the described historical moment has not yet been born, then insignia or awards are attached to hell knows how. Apparently, money is spared for normal consultants or the directors themselves have no time to go into such "trifles". I'm not a bore, but if the soldiers of the Red Army run around with Kalash, the impression will be at least negative. And not a single argument that the film was made about the relations of people in the war, and not about the war itself, will convince me of a negative attitude towards this work.

        So I am afraid that "of course I was waiting for a film about the war, but I got a film about love in the war" according to modern American cinematic concepts.
        To be honest, they are tired of the "canvas about love" in modern war films, which erases the cruel bloody truth about the war, when, as one of the veterans recalls, "embrasures were made from the bodies of the dead soldiers."
        In rare cases, love was at war, but it was there, as an exception, and not in such fierce battles. Read the recollection of comfrey war veterans about the war - a terrible truth, where there simply is no place in the soul for love.

        Bondarchuk, in principle, makes good, interesting, and young people watch such films more often than old ones. and it seems to be good that even so boys and girls are involved in patriotism.
        but after his films there still remains some kind of sediment, albeit a little. for example, the film of the 9th company is a good film, but we are told by voice-over that the company forgot the leadership. Thus, they put into the mind the idea that in the army you can be a hero, and you will be betrayed - this is possible, of course, as it was in 1st Chechen. but it turns out the anti-advertising of the army.
        for some reason a scene with group sex with a girl with dementia was inserted into the film !!! and what is this for? we tell young people about the dangers of promiscuous sexual intercourse, but here we seem to legitimize it in "patriotic" cinema.
        so the Bondarchuk films leave me a bad aftertaste
        and "stalingrad" is an interesting film, of course, but the name is inappropriate

        Brainwashing - even in a sincerely, and probably still cruelly hated by me country (USA), I emphasize without quotation marks, they shot the film "Enemy at the Gates", about the love of a Soviet sniper and a Soviet girl nurse or something. Which is very full of patriotism of the Soviet (RF) person. In this same tape, a certain Soviet girl appeared, who surrendered herself to a German officer, over time, even for love - I'm not saying that this was not, but why is she in this film, and how does she relate to the patriotism of the film, if he (the director) declared it as such, a completely unnecessary episode. After watching the previous Stalingrad (without Hollywood special effects) I wanted to call my grandfather ... In general, the film is good, but Bondarchuk does not grow up (purely subjective opinion).

      Well, just at least once go and see, and there draw your own conclusions.

      Unlike Alexei, I watched the movie on the first day by blat. Almost at night, calmed down and tuned in to war ... I looked and went a little stunned. Is it war like a background? Love is like a background? Special effects? Sometimes it seemed like the film consists from posters. In the frames from the film to the article there are only some of them. Brilliantly made, but posters ... What is only the speech of the Wehrmacht captain before the soldiers ... What is the panorama of the attack on the house ... The breathtaking work of the cameraman and director ...
      But in general, I went out in thought. History? There is no history at all ... Love? Well maybe ... Consciousness of the soldiers? Patriotism? I don’t know ...
      Then there was a lot of dual about this and I realized what was happening .. I understood for myself - the film suggests that they will win anyway. They will win even after they die, they will win after the house turns into ruins.

        Art affects a person's feelings, what kind of impact it will be, strong or weak, positive or negative, is largely determined by the talent of the artist, poet, director. Modern cinema increasingly focuses on special effects, as a result, the background becomes the main one, and everything else acts as a background to the spectacular graphics. Remove 3D, remove computer graphics, what is left, what will give rise to feelings? Unfortunately, in my opinion, we have more and more imitations of Hollywood, and, more and more than what was previously called "Soviet cinema", distinguished the domestic school of art. "Pearl Harbor" or "Stalingrad", yes, this is a spectacle, if this is the main thing, then the film was a success. Nevertheless, if we really focus on entertainment, technical reliability, impressing the viewer with the fall of the German Heinkel He-111 bomber, then it was not worthwhile to insert "plywood" tanks into the frame, which can hardly be called a passable "replica".

          Well, I don’t know, the tanks look more or less sane, though in Pz4 Soviet skating rinks (from the T-44 tank) are visible in frames when attacking a house, but StuG III and T-34 turned out to be very similar. In general, real tanks are rarely used in films now and this film is no exception.

            It's a shame that our craftsmen make various remarks, but this must be sought, agreed, etc. It’s easier to take from Mosfilm.

                here the question rests on money: who will finance the production of these copies, they must first be made, and then money must be collected
                theoretically, this should be, for example, MosFilm, and then rent them out to a film crew of different films
                But from experience I can say that most modern filmmakers are not interested in any accuracy, most of the films about the war are done stupidly for cutting dough
                as an example, I can give one film, where I also participated, so there they got Gaster to the extras of Soviet soldiers, because the extras actor needs to pay 800 re per day, and the Gaster for 300 are ready

Why should the Ministry of Culture not finance the construction of a couple of dozen replicas - I think the money is not sky-high, than to give funds to Mikhalkov for another something with sailing tanks and other heresies?

            Real is not necessary, but historical accuracy should be. Sergei Bondarchuk, filming "War and Peace" did not use computer graphics, there were not those opportunities, but the soldiers there were not shot with Mosin rifles, the picture is a true masterpiece, both due to the historical accuracy of that era, and in direction. In the Novosibirsk region, designer-enthusiast Vyacheslav Verevochkin makes copies of tanks himself, and there is a whole museum in his garden. For a film, you cannot order copies of equipment from the same Chinese or in our defense industry? We have already reached the point that in some films the An-2 is filmed like an aircraft of the Second World War. If there is no way to create credibility, why take on plots without the necessary "props"?

                No, dear Alexey, this is not a normal tank "they made it", it only somehow reminds of the Pz IV, especially since the Germans fought Pz IV Ausf F2s near Stalingrad, on which the side screens were not installed. The side screens received the late "G" modifications and the "H" modification from April 1943. Of course, if we do not care about the reliability, so it will be possible to shoot the Germans with AK, what to bother ... We, after all, are talking about entertainment and reliability? If so, then you need to be serious about the "little things", then there will be that realism, which will make the film believe. You have to look for good "replicas", copies or genuine technique, this movie will only benefit.

                  For itself You are absolutely right, they did it smartly, but the 8 PZ IV tanks that were shown are certainly not the original, but as close as possible to this. And renting these 8 tanks would cost the budget another 30%.

              Just the same with Mosin rifles. And in some shots, it is clearly visible. (look more closely at 3 series). And there are flaws in the uniforms of the soldiers. But the film is still a masterpiece. This is the talent of the master. And about Stalingrad, I'll tell you my feelings. At first, the film is a little annoying (too many, in my opinion, slow-motion frames). But then you realize that you cannot tear yourself away from the screen, it is so exciting. I also noted one peculiarity - there was silence in the hall, no one got up, left, or chewed. Even after the end of the session, they parted in silence, everyone was kind of pensive. After graduation, at first I felt some disappointment, still expecting large-scale battle scenes. But then he noticed that the film was not letting go, thoughts were constantly revolving around the story shown in the film. Moreover, all their everyday troubles seemed to be small, not worthy of attention. In general, it's funny, but you start to really empathize with the characters after watching, when everything that the director wanted to show and say gradually comes to pass. There are such works of art (from cinema and literature), which, in order to finally understand, must be reviewed or re-read. Back in school, I heard from adults that you really understand Tolstoy's "War and Peace" after the 2nd, 3rd reading.

      Moreover, he himself took part in the filming of this film in the city of Kronstadt and in the village of Sapernoye, near St. Petersburg. He was a technical understudy of one of the heroes.
      In short: on the set, there was a complete understanding between actors of mass scenes, understudies, stuntmen, assistants and actors!
      Comments of people who are unhappy with him, after watching, kill me. Because they expected a two-hour mess with guts, torn arms and legs, and other meat. Yes, there were such scenes. Fedor Sergeyevich invited specially for such scenes a stage director (Russian). But these scenes were cut, however, like the film itself - for about 20 minutes, due to the assignment of an age rating of + 12. The film of Bondarchuk tells about the soldiers from the reconnaissance, which was entrenched in the house (http://warrax.net/48/pavlov.html), where a girl named Katya lived. And from that moment, their story begins. Perhaps the film should have been named differently, but that would have been a different topic. And the Russian, the most fastidious viewer, would not be so intrigued by the picture. And perhaps he would not have gone to such a number of viewers as he does to this film. For it is better to go to the movie "The Best Film" and "fuck up" with the type of funny jokes below the belt.

      Bottom line: it’s better to see once than hear a hundred times. And there you will draw your own conclusions. But the movie is worth a look!

      And then we wonder why the Poles erect monuments to Soviet soldiers-rapists in Gdansk. In general, the ideological vacuum is complete - thanks to Putin, it is not Stalin.

                I finished school in '85 and I want to disappoint you. There were such students in our class that they probably did not know the multiplication table. And Stalingrad was deeply indifferent to them (as well as other events)

              I agree, the information was not complete, I also did not know about the exact duration of the battle. I had 3 in history. But we knew about Mamaev Kurgan, and about Pavlov’s house, and about other episodes. The current generation makes round eyes on the question of the blockade of Leningrad, on the Kursk Bulge, etc. Pepsi generation, in a word.

But this is not the main thing. The same BBC just approaches documentary programs unconventionally. And with proper approach, documentary programs can be very profitable and attract viewers. They create OTV when it would be possible and necessary to create a historical channel.

I watched this film later, as a student, at the age of 24. I still cannot talk about him calmly. Only the stories of the front-line grandfather are stronger than him.

      You know, I went specifically because of the big advertising. He was conscious, well, few began to shoot GOOD films about the Second World War. He took his daughter 15 years and went. Why did he take and for the words of Bandarchuk that he was making a film for young people. What is the war of 1941 for them? What is the war of 1812 in one place (this is somewhere far away and is not clear). Maybe I don’t know, but in the next row there were 2 grandmothers and children. The film was ending, but for me there are controversial moments, but this is later. the main thing is another look at the daughter interested person means something hooked and most importantly in the eyes of tears means empathy for the heroes touched the heart. I turn to the old people. Grandmothers wipe away tears and grandfather sits with what expression, well, the feeling that he saw his friends or experienced something of his own now just now again. For me, this was an unambiguous opinion. FILM turned out. Bandarchuk well done he could. And in the evening the child climbed the Internet (read about Stalingrad) wink

    Compared to such "masterpieces" as "Anticipation" or "Bastards", the film is an undoubted progress, and schoolchildren will be interested. By the way, the moderators apparently do not tolerate an excellent point of view on this film, and there were many questions about the film when watching.

        Look, don’t worry. In general, the shag in the war was sacred for the soldier, I remember the stories of my grandfather, and if some kind of brave captain, showing his coolness would have pulled a cigarette from a soldier, he would not have gone far, a maximum of five meters, since the captain is alone in There are many company soldiers. I have nothing against the Jews, and I am convinced that Jews as such appeared in the year 46-48, but forgive me, when they poke straight into the eyes that the poor and unhappy Jews were the only ones who suffered in the war, then forgive me here without comment.

          It was just that Jews were killed immediately and without talking. As are the families of red commanders and commissars. But if the latter was outwardly difficult to distinguish, then any person with black curls or a nose of "irregular" shape was, in fact, doomed. This was shown by Bondaruchuk.

      By the way, the moderators do not seem to take a great point of view on this film, but there were a lot of questions for the film when watching

      I wonder on what basis did you make this conclusion? Is it fighting smoking? laughing I myself, an avid smoker, but also always struggled with this. I myself am weak-minded, so at least save someone from this ... Civilians? Have you seen what was happening near other houses?
      Moreover, I will throw you a couple more of the same comments ... The Germans were armed before the attack, just like the Russians-internationally lol and their cars and ours. Tanks of strange design they had laughing And the sights for some reason completely copied our swedish ..
      But is this really the task of the film? Someone positioned it as historical? This is a feature film about soldiers .. Soldiers of both armies. About civilians (if you remember they were there, too, and not only when they were executed, but also in the house, militias).
      I agree, you watch the movie. Not the squeeze television and the movie itself ...

        About smoking. I heard from my grandfather (who got to us in the war in 1943, 17 years old) that the foreman, even in school, weaned them (meaning minors) from smoking. Not only did I drive for it, so seeing with a cigarette, I forced to dig a single trench in full profile, put a cigarette and bury. Type still small to smoke. And instead of the prescribed portion of vodka, he gave out a double portion of sugar.

He came, decided to turn the boiling rage into lines, the moderators deleted the article, and did not even bother to explain the reason, I understand that the film may be liked, but understand that the film may also not be liked. Or was this film informally advertised by a sacred cow ???
        2: As for the props, for example, in saving Private Ryan, the Tiger is also not real, it is especially visible from the skating rinks, when Velcro in their socks clings to them, but is coated with tsimirit, and it was possible to notice the fake from viewing the third.

    How many films and programs have already been shot about Stalingrad, the Brest Fortress, the Kursk Bulge, etc. etc. - Probably very good topics for making a directorial career on TV !!!
    And other episodes of the war for some reason are completely covered in darkness and films about it are not filmed !!! For example - the capture of Konigsberg, the storming of Poznan, the Balaton operation, the capture of Vienna and much more - perhaps there is nothing to film about those events? Or perhaps not such "correct" actions took place there? Or did the wrong soldiers fight there?

        laughing Have you ever read the history of the Great Patriotic War? I strongly advise you. What kind of defense are you talking about in Stalingrad? Defended what you were able to capture and there was no organized defense in the city itself. There were centers of defense, such as Pavlov’s house (and even then not entirely, and floor)
        And the essence of the film is not in the historical truth about the battle. There are many such films now. Yes, there are quite a lot of documentaries. The point is why we won. We defeated a strong and brave opponent. This Wehrmacht captain is a worthy opponent. A fighter, a warrior ... And we’ve broken their spine anyway. And attacks with shovels are also not just shown. A handwriter is only beautiful in the movies. In reality, it is scary. And a sapper shovel is not a shovel at all, it is a symbol of soldiers' self-denial. A symbol of complete neglect of one’s life for the sake of others ...
        And a sniper only in the movies is a master of his craft. And only a few survive in life. The rest die very quickly. It is good if one out of a thousand survives ...

          And the Germans are worthy enemies, I agree. Therefore, they were incited to Russia. Others would not have been taken out.
          And on the subject of attack ... ORDER was held on. The commander leads a handful of fighters into melee from which you can only return to the CINEMA. So there are few fighters, and he also shoots them. He is normal? Ah, I forgot the movie after all.

    The author is a demagogue. The film must correspond to reality, albeit an artistic one. And so under this guise of "artistry" sometimes disgusting pictures about our not so distant past and about the Second World War also fall. so no la-la author. We already have one laureate Nikita Mikhalkov, then he has women swimming on mines and German tanks sailing under sails, and burned tankers before death necessarily want to see a woman's breast. But Mikhalkov also talked about "artistry".

    Here, apparently, one is lucky, by the way about the Afghan war, there are no normal films at all, and there were also many operations there, events that are worthy of being embodied in the movies. But the Great Patriotic War is a topic too voluminous and requires a lot of time to study.

    It is very scary, to be honest, to go to modern Russian films, it is certainly not worth comparing them with Soviet ones, in the USSR, in the first place, they knew how to shoot films, and not to cut and assimilate the budget, and secondly, in Soviet films everything was somehow done with a soul and the actors they played like that, in short, it's like comparing a real high-quality thing with Uncle Ho's Chinese handicraft. I haven't seen Stalingrad yet, because I'm afraid to see a pink Pz IV + a glamorous love story there, because Bondarchuk has already fucked up "Inhabited Island".

The normal film didn’t see anything inconsistent with the spirit of the book, but there are reductions, some not connections, most likely related to the inability to shoot strictly according to the book. If the film does not fit your presentation of the book, then I'm sorry, these are your problems. By the way, I also presented the book in a slightly different way, but I liked the vision of the film and once again I will repeat quite accurately the spirit and world of the book.

The theme of the war, especially the theme of Stalingrad, is the grief and pain of an entire people and liberties on this topic, such as "this is an artistic picture, not a documentary" and other nonsense - not valid... What the Bondarchuk and similar "figures" are doing now is the deliberate devaluation of things that are sacred to the people. Consultants? What for? Expensive special effects, moral and sexual quest of five fighters))) and complete lack of ideology at the exit - this is Hollywood. No wonder, the picture has not yet appeared on public display, and Mr. Bondarchuk is already running, dropping his slippers, to show his "masterpiece" to Hollywood. Like, what they say at home is bullshit, the main thing is that Hollywood will appreciate ... And Hollywood will. He will appreciate everything that portrays a Soviet soldier in a parody key, and to portray a woman in war as a madam of not harsh behavior is generally a bang!

                Have you watched Bondarchuk's Inhabited Island? Well, what he did with the original work of the Strugatskys is still a little flower.

                With his film, Malik simply raped the work of the same name by Jones, completely altering its meaning. Do you know that the book was published by Voyenizdat in Soviet times, because it "showed the beastly grin of the American military clique"?

                      In "Rheine", by the way, the book "D-Day" is very actively used. Some moments, especially at the beginning, are literally conveyed - for example, the theme with the glider. And the story itself about a soldier who lost all his brothers is from there. True, as it turned out, one brother, who was a pilot, survived, swam out. Well, Tom Hanks was dying for nothing too.

    My son was on this movie. Tried to leave from the middle. The wife did not let me in. He says it's a pity for money. He was most outraged by the love of a Russian girl for a German. And this is the time when they were torn and gnawed with teeth to stop them, regardless of any losses. When they razed the city and its inhabitants to the ground. And then "love" surfaced!

I advise all critics and other dissatisfied people to proceed on an easy erotic journey, because the film was really a success, unlike the last "masterpieces" of Mikhalkov, the halls for all evening sessions were packed, and there were equal numbers of young people and people of age.

    I went to look with some apprehension, but decided to give Bondarchuk one more chance (after "Inhabited Island" as a fan of the Strugatskys, I was somewhat ... dissatisfied). I liked the film, although a few moments, how to say it, are strange. But these are trifles. The rest of the film was shot soundly. On the question of authenticity: maybe there is something wrong with the tanks, I'm not an expert, but for some reason one moment attracted attention: in one shot they showed a close-up of German boots trampling the ruins - the boots are correct with the pile on the nose outward. Maybe Bondarchuk put it in on purpose?))))

    Here is the opinion of other people: "Spoil the war ..." - I heard the opinion of an old woman after the premiere. This assessment of Bondarchuk's film was shared by younger viewers. Let him do what he wants, 3D, 5D, let him turn the soldier into a burning "hell of the living dead", and the final duel of the two captains into the "Matrix", let him broadcast behind the scenes, entering into confrontation with Mikhalkov, just not to show his brainchild ( literally and figuratively) veterans. However, it has already shown. The veterans survived, they could not stand it. For them, three-dimensional pictures from hell in comparison with what they experienced, like the husk of seeds. http://tengrinews.kz/opinion/434/

    I understand that joint films did not go from Stalingrad, but then the question arises:

    After "9th Company" and "Spy" (although Bondarchuk did not shoot this film, he starred in this crap) to Bondarchuk Jr. the attitude is negative.
    After the vomit under the slogan "a great film about a great war", the attitude towards modern domestic cinema, especially in the part of films about the Second World War, is sharply negative.

    Let the author of the article forgive me, but I can’t stand it when the chassis of the Soviet T-54 goes out from under the German tanks of World War II. Is it really difficult to assemble several self-propelled models of armored vehicles with historical parameters for visualization? Save money on idiotic things ...
    But Bondarchuk will love the respect. The topic is very important.
    And yet, I would not want to steal a movie from a torrent as always. Too bad the cinema is not nearby, this time I would go.
    If filmmakers hadn’t been kidding, and sold their films at 10-50r. on the Internet, then I, and the rest of the torrent torrent army, would love to pay money for the movie, and producers would get at least something instead of nothing.

      I remember as a child I watched a film about the war, still Soviet, there without any plywood, the Urals were dragging guns in a column. Just now I remembered a film - "a stone's throw from paradise", about scouts, the Germans went to Kraz-laptezhnik there - I think only children paid attention to this - it was funny for us. I read on this topic from one comrade in LJ - what is the point of criticizing a 42-year-old sapper in a film about 41 for a scapula, or looking out for buttons.
      I also remembered a funnier movie (the name doesn’t lie) - there Stalin, after taking the Reichstag by plane, flew to Berlin directly to the Reichstag, the movie is very Soviet, still probably black and white. So mistakes and mistakes are another story

    Good afternoon!
    I watched the film on 11.10.2013/XNUMX/XNUMX in Moscow at the Oktyabr cinema. I will say the following, films on this topic, of course, need to be shot and more, even in the form in which Bondarchuk shoots them, no matter what! This is in any case more useful than filming serials about cops, bandits, etc. But ... after watching this movie, the very next day and there is nothing to remember. This is not a film that, for example, you could have in your collection (and I have a lot of them), and after a couple of months no one will remember about it at all, as if it never existed. The same cannot be said about Soviet and other Russian war films. And if we talk about Stalingrad in a different Russian version, then personally I liked the film "Life and Fate" much more, which is often remembered, although I probably watched it a year ago. And in my opinion, that Nikita Mikhalkov, that the younger Bondarchuk are people turned to Hollywood ............

      I looked last night with a girl who was not interested in the topic of war in principle ...
      After watching the movie, they sat silently in the hall and did not leave. Everyone dispersed in complete silence. There were no idiotic chuckles and loud conversations ...
      When I went outside I noticed teenagers who were hotly discussing the film and the behavior of the characters at the bus stop. I haven’t seen this for a long time.
      I did not expect such a good film from Bondarchuk ... But he was able to shoot it.

    Why did he take it off ??? In fact, the main character of the film is a German officer who is shown as an intelligent, noble person (which is the undisguised glorification of Nazism, which Russia is seeking to ban from the UN!). The picture forms a negative image of both Soviet soldiers and the civilian population of the city, both among Russian viewers, and it will form it among film viewers from abroad

And where did you find the negative image of the soldier ??

        The patriotism of Soviet soldiers is shown as low: despite the fact that control of this house is the only opportunity for the Soviet army to cross and recapture the city, the commander of the soldiers aloud expresses doubt that the scouts will try to maintain control of the house in the event of the death of Katya. This moment shows the Soviet soldiers from an extremely negative side (do they not understand the importance of control over the house, or are they not going to carry out the order?).
        The attitude of local residents towards the Germans is shown as neutral or positive. At each visit of the German officer Peter and his colleagues to the basement, a boy from the locals appears in the frame, giving Hitler's greeting to the German soldier. There are already three such scenes in the film. The presence of this boy does not support the storyline at all, it seems that he was introduced specifically to demonstrate the positive attitude of the civilian population towards the Germans.
        The attitude of Soviet soldiers in the film to each other is shown as sharply negative. At the very beginning of the film, immediately after the capture of the house, Commander Gromov makes an audit of people (who survived, who was wounded, etc.). Among ours there is a seaman who declares that since he is a seaman, he therefore obeys the naval headquarters, and not the orders of the headquarters of the land division, like commander Gromov. Commander Gromov kills him immediately after this phrase, in less than a second! Without any dialogue! That is, here is the Gromov House, there are 6 soldiers and a sailor in it, there are NO others of ours in the city AT ALL (all our troops are on the other bank of the Volga!), Every cartridge and every person is valuable, but the sailor is killed immediately, without any attempt convince! They don't say a single word to him, they just kill him immediately with a shot. Among the 6 soldiers present, only 1 after that says "you shouldn't be so, we don't have enough people." No one else expresses a single drop of condemnation, does not even show it in appearance. The attitude of German soldiers towards the population is shown as good:
        In the film, the Germans burn in a bus standing in the square, a young Jewess with a child. This is motivated by the fact that the ancient Germans made a sacrifice before the battle, so that the battle was successful. They do not show any hatred and contempt for the burned Jewess - it just happened and the Jewess was unlucky (supposedly, if we had a German in the battalion, we might have burned her, not the Jewess). In addition to this scene in general (!) No violence by the Germans is shown. Not during the burning - they beat no one, or later, when they drive the population to the station, to send him in the cars - not a single blow (to speed up the crowd to the station, among which there are many hungry and exhausted people), nothing !!

    So they said in the press that after the film was shown to the veterans in Volgograd, they put the film 4-ku (most likely so as not to offend Bondarchuk, and the film itself draws three, respectively +1 point for patriotism = 4).

        Among Soviet films were there many masterpieces about the war? I personally recall with difficulty a dozen.
        Klimov "Come and See", Kalatozov "The Ballad of the Soldier", Shepitko "Ascent", "Twenty Days Without War" by Herman and his "Check on the Roads". "Cranes are Flying". "Only old men go to battle",. "Two Soldiers" and "Heavenly Slow Mover" are, rather, not as masterpieces, but as the best examples of cinema of their time. "Chronicle of a dive bomber". Of the strong ones - "Zhenya, Zhenechka and" Katyusha "," Shield and Sword "," Belorussky Station "," The Dawns Here Are Quiet "," They Fought for the Motherland "," In War As in War "and a few others. They can and should be brought up. Not every film about the war should be a masterpiece. Bondarchuk made a good, strong film. It's just that everyone expected a Great film from him. Why would?

    I read what they wrote here, a complete mess. I will not give any ratings. My opinion is that this film is a good action, not Stalingrad. My father fought the whole war, talked a lot about it. Films such as "Liberation" and the like were called good fairy tales. to reality he called "War as in War", somewhere "Hot Snow" according to his stories is comparable to "At an unnamed height". His words "war is a tedious, dangerous, difficult job and not at all like in a movie, in which no one has a second life. My father died in 1998, fought in the reconnaissance, and awards still come."

    Bondarchuk, when talking about this film, explained: This is not something that was shot in the USSR. I can’t shoot such a thing ever, this is a different format, this film is adapted for the modern viewer. After all, people now want, first spectacles and only then the semantic component. I did not rely on absolute certainty, since what happened there was known only to soldiers (veterans), participants in those terrible events.

    From myself, I went and looked. The film was impressive (IMAX 3D), a friend living in Volgograd, talked with veterans attending the premiere. The reviews are positive, albeit with tears.

    Yes, the epic tapes of the times of the USSR fall short. Yes, there isn’t that game of actors, as in old films. But this is another movie, because, whether we want it or not, the world has changed.

    I went to see a movie with my friend's son (grade 6), before that he knew about Stalingrad only that it was such a city. After watching, he was silent for a very long time. Arriving home, he climbed head over heels on the Internet and began to shovel information about the Second World War. I got into the story and started asking questions. He says that at school, during recess, the most pressing topic of discussion is "Stalingrad". And those who ask what the conversation is about (they don't know) are immediately called loshars (well, children, what to take from them).
    Let even this generation know about the exploits of our fathers and grandfathers.

    I read comments to the film on "venerable" portals. One bile, sarcasm and insults. There is a manipulation on the topic of the elder Bondarchuk and the younger. Out of 200 reviews, not a single normal one, this does not happen. This is an explicit order of our liberals.

    We are again forced to believe that everything Russian is bad. And they (the West) have some geniuses and the apogee of culture.

    I don't give a damn about the cons, I support Bondarchuk and say thank you for the good, Russian film.

    Personally, I will not watch the film, the preview frames were enough. A burning man should scream in pain, and not run to attack the enemy with a spiritual gaze. It's like in Svejk, when the severed head of a soldier continues to glorify the emperor. The father of our "genius" Bondarchuk, while filming "They Fought for the Motherland", he did not use any special effects, only one battle scene, and turns his soul over. Remember how the wounded man was brought to the infirmary for a test, he says something about the boots so that they are not cut, because they are new, and then he bursts out "how it hurts me, you would give me at least some pill!", and the nurse just takes his hand, because she has nothing. And no 3D fountains of blood for you, and tears are welling up. Although I taste my own I do not impose, perhaps, on a new time, a new cinema?

      Yes, it’s not even a matter of how a burning person should behave ... The meaning is different. Bondarchuk Sr. created a real picture to show the feat of the Soviet people and educate the younger generation on it, the same one, the younger, who is a powerful snore of nature, making money. There is no question of any educational moment. It's a shame that it exploits a holy theme for the people to clog their pockets with greenery.

I'm afraid that soon everything will turn into a breed for everything. Music video director Bondarchuk is clearly trying to get ahead of his father. But a person of the wrong caliber will never be able to do this. And I will never forget the machine gun with the crooked barrel.

    This attack went down in history as the “attack of the dead.” The battle took place near the Osovets fortress. But regarding the soldiers engulfed in flames but not surrendering, I read about an episode when our soldiers continued to hold the defense in a building completely engulfed in flames.

    Yes, this is nonsense, not a movie. Some smart viewers who visited this film correctly write that such a love story is the delirium of a madman. At that time, the people of the two countries felt only hatred towards each other. In this sense, the film “The Indian Kingdom” is very true - there are no good or kind enemies - they are enemies and that’s it, and they must be killed, and the sooner the better, because if you delay, then the “good” “beloved” German will send more than one to the forefathers your compatriot. With his film, Bondarchuk is trying to cleverly replace the motive of popular hatred of the enemy with a kind of tolerance in a modern style - like not all enemies are bad, there are some who are good. It’s clear that it’s hard to come up with a good German, and here comes a story about the exchange of experience and technology in peacetime, like that’s where all this “love” comes from. Rave. On the other hand, when everything collapses, when thousands of people die next to you, when you can hardly stand on your feet from fatigue, what kind of love can we talk about? Idiocy. But that's not even the main thing. The main thing is, and in fact the whole collapse of our modern cinema in its attempts to create something of high quality about that war, lies in the attempt to get away from ideologization. But this is the main thing. It was not just a war; it was, first of all, a battle between two ideologies. An attempt to remove the main driving forces and motivators in the person of Stalin, the Communist Party on the one hand, and Hitler with his Nazism on the other hand, and an attempt to replace all this with priests, penal battalions, revenge, etc., leads to the fact that all modern films about war look like showdowns mafia clans among themselves, and not for the Patriotic War of the entire people. So it is in Stalingrad. You look at all this bloody-gray mess and murder and cannot help but think that this is not a war for your country, not a turning point in this war, but some kind of showdown of gangster groups in some destroyed area of ​​​​Detroit. It is not clear what all these people are doing in these ruins, why they are killing each other. Stalingrad is not visible. The superhuman effort of both sides in achieving their goals is not visible. It feels like the heroes are stupidly sitting and waiting to be killed - hopelessness - and of course, to be saved by love from this hopelessness - God himself ordered. Ugh. Well, the war itself is all drawn and therefore not real, like the screensavers for “Call of duty”.... And for some reason I couldn’t get rid of the thought that when the heroine made her way to meet her “lover” among the ruins and of torn bodies, then it seemed that suddenly one of these bodies would take her by the leg and say: “Stop! Show me your tits!”

    I read the comments. Everyone saw in the film what they wanted to see. I will share my impressions and thoughts. I’ll start with the most discussed (although I would like to start with a completely different) plot - I didn’t see the love story of a Wehrmacht officer and a Russian girl. That Fritz only fell for her face (she looked like his wife) and his interest in her was rather platonic. After all, remember that after intimacy with her, the Russians for him remained untermensh (which they actually were for him before), fighting not according to the rules and only for the sake of revenge. By the way, the behavior (and words) of the other supermen was the same (burning a woman and child in the back of a truck). As for the “love” of the girl herself, the absence of any feelings other than fear and hatred is clearly visible (these are the repeated words “What are you up to?” spoken in a low voice, and the expectation of a Fritz with a knife in his hands, and a completely devastated look after intimacy ). And obeying the will of fear, she stayed with him, BUT AT HOME!!! but didn’t go to Vaterland to fight against the Great Reich. Interesting statements are that our Soldiers did not fight for the Motherland, but defended that house and its inhabitant Katya. And I saw that the captain and a handful of Russian Warriors were carrying out the order to hold the house at any cost, which they carried out until their last breath. The fates of these Warriors are well shown. Each family was affected by the war and each had a personal account with the Nazis (this is the murdered Fritz at the pump, and the murdered same Russian girl). Inhuman, withering hatred of the enemy is shown (an episode of spontaneous hand-to-hand combat after the burning of a woman and a child, an episode with burning attacking infantry). The fear and hatred of the civilian population is shown (the episode when the girl whom the Fritz was visiting was doused with slop and called a fascist whore; the episode when civilians were afraid to raise their eyes to the organizers of the new world order. In a word, a worthwhile film of our present time. In fairness, I would like to note that the emotional understatement is still present. The director did not fully reveal the theme of that great tragedy, those trials that befell the Country and the People. And as noted above, and what also caught my eye, that at the end of the session the audience actually came out in silence, and buckets of feed there weren’t any, and the few that were there remained uneaten... A must watch!

The film may be good, but I was expecting something different, I was waiting for something to show the kid how it was, and it’s good that with special effects, he’ll get more impressions, but... let’s say... I think he had a few other questions. Stalingrad is in the background, it’s for an adult audience, and adults don’t need these special effects. This film should have been made into two. But something turned out wrong. But this is purely my personal opinion, based on personal experience.

    I watched the film with my children, the eldest is 15, the youngest is 7. After the film, the youngest asked if our grandfather also fought, I said yes, he answered, I also want to be like my grandfather, to defend the country. The eldest decided that only the people will save our Motherland and will protect not politicians, but the people. Therefore, I think that the film was not made in vain, but with dignity if the new generation perceives it this way.

    According to the results of the first week of wide release in Russia and the CIS, Fyodor Bondarchuk’s film “Stalingrad” showed the best opening week box office result among Russian-produced films in the entire modern history of film distribution in Russia and the CIS, earning a record box office of more than 565 million rubles.
    p.s. For your information, the film cost 30 USD, if it goes on like this, the film can break even in Russia and the CIS countries, and this is before the world screening (November 000), and this means the profitability of Russian films and the production of even larger films.

    No, dear Alexey, this is not a normal tank "they made it", it only somehow reminds of the Pz IV, especially since the Germans fought Pz IV Ausf F2s near Stalingrad, on which the side screens were not installed. The side screens received the late "G" modifications and the "H" modification from April 1943. Of course, if we do not care about the reliability, so it will be possible to shoot the Germans with AK, what to bother ... We, after all, are talking about entertainment and reliability? If so, then you need to be serious about the "little things", then there will be that realism, which will make the film believe. You have to look for good "replicas", copies or genuine technique, this movie will only benefit.

    I read the reviews here, read a lot of reviews on different sites and blogs...

    It seems to me like this:
    - The film is a film, yes it is made for modern youth - but what are we good for? Are we raising our children in the right traditions? It is our children who believe that the stupid Americans won the war, and this is our fault, we should not shift it onto everyone and everything, the fault of each of us.
    - if we raised our children the right way, STUDYED history instead of going through it, they would spit at such a film.
    - many friends were forgiven through combat operations - they spat at the mention of the film. And that grandfather in general (he’s a veteran).... doesn’t want to watch such garbage, he likes to read books, memories of contemporaries like himself.
    - the film has been made, but its title should not be called "Stalingrad" - for it, or rather "0.1% of the truth of Stalingrad" - or "shooter in Stalingrad" (by the way, Fedya imagined it that way)

    Conclusion The film is good as a fairy tale, but as something close to history it is garbage. In order to really feel the pain of the war, talk to the surviving veterans and watch the chronicle + “Liberation”, “They Fought for the Motherland”, etc. + look at the Victory parades - all the pain of the people. "Stalingrad" is a film not about the war and not about people at war - it's just a film in IMAX 3D to raise money.

    PS. Personally, I really like the latest films that show the character of modern, fretted youth who end up in war, “We are from the Future,” Part 1. Everything is very clear there - despite the scenery.

    Boris Vasiliev "Not on the lists." Just the theme of love in the destroyed dungeons of a young lieutenant and a crippled Jewish girl. Why not a love story? In addition, at first the lieutenant was hiding from the enemy and was a little scared of fighting. However, the book touches the very soul, because this is not what is felt in it. I’ll definitely let my daughter read it when she’s older..

    I won’t be original and will express the very essence... As for modern films about that War, many have long been fed up with love stories and constantly brutal NKVD officers who beat, frighten and torture everyone. During the war, everything was different and the current cliché, they say, in the spirit of the times, exposure and denigration only drives the surviving veterans of the Great Patriotic War into their graves. I remember my grandfather watched Mikhalkov’s film “Imminence” that I downloaded. Then he walked silently for several days and muttered something sadly. I asked him - what happened? He answered me - they say, if today's youth watch such a movie about the Second World War and from it draw information about the past, then it is painful and offensive to die knowing that after all, much will be forgotten and essentially desecrated... Such films are more likely to benefit our people, Latvian, SS-sheep not killed and their descendants. As for this film, it is an ordinary love story, the background of which is Stalingrad. Only the people come to take a breath of fresh air of historical reality with elements of patriotism (combat, hardships, heroism with corresponding fights for every inch of land) and again remember the feat of the Soviet people. This is normal and this is a healthy reaction of people who love their ancestors and the history of their homeland.
    p.s. My grandfather passed away... and I keep thinking: should I have shown this disgusting thing to him?

      This summer, the largest German airline Lufthansa will have a brand new Airbus A-380. And now enterprising Germans are promoting the liner all over the world, inviting potential passengers to come up with a name for it. The lucky winner is promised a mega prize - a million miles (1,6 million km) for free. By the way, this is enough to fly around the equator forty times.

      No one expected what happened next. At the suggestion of the Russian Marina Karyakina, the option “Stalingrad” appeared on the list on the company’s official website, other patriots supported it, and the name of the hero city conquered the top of the hit parade.

      The film is probably interesting only for fans of modern cinema - or rather the modern style of action + computer special effects...

      The theme of the Second World War is the most mysterious and the most overgrown with myths... Under the thickness of the propaganda of various years, little of reality is visible - so it turns out that over the years, new films about the war are increasingly at odds with the stories of veterans... Those few who are really interested in the war watch this they won’t, but will read documentaries and listen to the memories of veterans - but there will be few of them - they will throw media chewing gum to the main herd - and they will be pleased to chew what they throw...

      The theme of the Second World War was a kind of sacred thing in the USSR and just like that, they didn’t let anyone make films about that war... But even in Soviet films there are enough inaccuracies and director’s tricks... And modern Russian ones are just a guard - how do you like the plot of a film about German saboteurs who drink vodka deep in the Soviet rear :)))))) But there is such a film heresy :)))))) Damn, modern Mikhalkovs and Bondarchuks won’t shoot anything - but everything turns out to be Plasticine of Rings with elements of eroticism :))))))))

    Oh, I don’t know whether to watch it or not... Many of the films (not all!!!) about the Great Patriotic War made in recent years are kind of action blockbusters, in the style of Rambo-Terminator, with the inevitable sweat. Sometimes it’s impossible to distinguish one from the other, it’s typical stamping, they ran, they shot, they drank, they fucked. A completely incomprehensible pursuit of Hollywood, brighter, louder, more spectacular, but is this our cinema? For me, let it not be so impressive, but let there be morality, meaning, the tragedy of the war, the feat of the people... Personally, my favorite films about the Great Patriotic War are Liberation, They Fought for the Motherland, among the modern ones I can highlight At an Nameless Height and Saboteur.. .

    The film is rubbish, like the rubbish of the 9th Company, another paid Amer order. Judging by the plot, the positive hero is a noble, of noble blood, a captain of the Wehrmacht, and ours are completely stupid people who shoot their own, a captain who threw a tantrum to a sniper for the liquidation of a German soldier (I emphasize the liquidation , but not murder, because enemies are eliminated in battle), but for this, the captain should have been shot right there, for preventing the sniper from working and fulfilling his military duty, and what difference does it really make to the sniper where the enemy is going, and even in uniform the enemy army, at a watering hole, for food or to the toilet. And the sniper himself is kind of strange, he is in an almost open position, does not disguise himself, does not change his position, and even warmed up a stranger near him (I mean a girl), interesting in real life how many minutes or seconds would such a sniper live? And then this humane captain wraps himself in the intestines of a killed German for camouflage. However, what could be expected from the wretched and degraded director Fedya.

    Unfortunately, there are very few really good modern Russian films about the Great Patriotic War. Perhaps one of the few films since 1991 that is really more or less, if I’m not mistaken with the title, “Brest Fortress.” All these Mikholkovsky and other pornographic and blackish perversions have already become so bad that you are already extremely wary of new films. Soviet films about the war, for the most part, are simply excellent.
