My son and I were well aware it was coming to the US. We saw it at a limited screening in an IMAX theater. The Russians make excellent war movies. Make sure to see Fortress and 9th Company.
Just for your information, this movie is full of inaccuracies, Russian wet dreams. Soviets suffered heavy losses at Stalingrad, and the only reason they won was because of their numbers, and the Germans having weak flanks made up by Italians, Romanians and Hungarians.
Sure sure, is that why they were losing all the way from Ukraine? They were in defense mode till Stalingrad, always retreating, yet they suffered huge losses, more than the Germans, and the Germans were attacking. Stalingrad was the turning point. They encircled and destroyed the entire 2nd army, but at what cost? The Ruskies lost huge numbers of men because of their tactics, which was basically "drown them in corpses of our own and kill whoever wants to retreat". Only later in the war did they change their approach.
@@theowl2044 Battle of Shanghai between Kuomintang and Japanese give this one a good run on body counts, and the failure to Japanese Army to trap and capture Jiang in the then capital doomed their Chinese campaign, even though nobody knew it at the time. And the Battle of Tianjin in 1946 would surpassed Stalingrad in casualty numbers by several thousands but unlike this battle, the outcome of the Chinese Civil War was already beyond doubt and the KMT was trying to delay the inevitable.
Well I've seen a lot of propaganda war movies from various countries with some ridiculous stuff, but I've never seen anything as ridiculous as a fortified German defensive position, complete with machine guns, being taken by troops who are engulfed in flames.
Order 227, no retreat, mass numbers and barrage of katyusha rockets. Good luck with defensive line. You have to reload, you don't have infinite ammo like in video games. No health bars or a guy who can revive you with one sting from syringe
Considering they had been fighting for the previous 2 years, don't you think these are veterans rather than the conscripts at the start of the war? I mean I don't really hope much in the mind of the modern westerners but this is funny.
On August 23rd, would mark the 79th anniversary of the start of Stalingrad battle. Not even 100 years ago that happened and our grandfathers and great grandfathers took part in WW2!
The real people who fought and died there probably never imagined that decades later movies would be so ridiculous and inaccurate, they woulldn't think propaganda would use their death to make them look like superheros and totally inaccurate about the way they felt.

Authenticity is always extremely important when making a movie about something as pivotal as the battle of Stalingrad. Since there are absolutely no recorded incidences of Soviet soldiers, their uniforms ablaze with petrol, attacking German positions while slowly being burned alive, the question begs to be asked, "Why go through all the trouble to make a movie like this and then ruin it with ridiculous scenes that everyone knows are simply not true?"
Not entirely agree with you. In some points, if we talking about movie especially about something historically about WW2, the director should consider ask for the historian gun experts, vehicles experts, and other expertise for more accurately moments. If he have done that before. Or maybe consider it, as documentaries series. Perhaps that would be a chance to show how accurately the director depicts the scenes. But then, we sometimes also forgot the first existence of the movie itself. The basic of creating some movies is 'to entertaint'. How many movies already 'ruin', name on it. "T-34", "300", "Saving Private Ryan", 47 Ronin". They took the basic of the main story of it. But then, of course, have to serve to the people who loves the entertainment. To develop the saga, the fantasy, their imagination, and any other visualized thing that they probably still mesmerized with it.
@@tiopinter You are correct that the aim is to entertain and not necessarily educate but there are limits to this. The director could have found perhaps another, more believable, way to entertain the audience than employing scenes that border on the ridiculous if not impossible.
I'm hesitant to use the word propaganda but that's basically what this is, that's why they have insane scenes like that showing the red army as almost superhuman in their dedication, it beats the reality of a bunch of terrified young conscripts being sent to the meat grinder by commanding officers who would shoot them on sight if they attempted to turn back. Most war movies are propaganda in favour of the country in which they were made with varying degrees of subtlety. This movie was directed, written, and produced by Russians, a people not known for subtlety in their patriotism.
انها المرة الاولى في حياتي التي اشاهد فيها وصف لمعركة احداثها، حقيقي ومنطقي ، بما فيها من مآسي ومحن وقساوة وشجاعة واستبسال لكلا الطرفين دون انحيار لأي منهما .
I just realized this is movie was made by the son of the famous Russian film director Sergei Bondarchuk. The guy who made Waterloo. The fact his son is making films like his Dad, of the same caliber mind you, is mind-blowing.
3:42 An anti-tank round can not ricochet 90 degrees that accurately off the tank as shown in the scene, the most degrees the round could ricochet is maybe 170 or maximum 160 degrees. Everything happening in these scenes is unrealistic
I could say that the flaming soldiers scene attacking the terrified german soldiers is a reference of the attack of the dead at the battle of Osowiec Fortress WW1 in 1915
Yeah, Schurzen in Stalingrad, Nov. 42, for sure. This is how (not) serious the producers are. Please try to watch Russo-German movie "Stalingrad" of 90's. It is true that for instance in that movie (which I suggested) a T-34/85 was used (inaccurate for Stalingrad battle) but it was because only real working tanks were used and it was hard (if not impossible) to find a running T-34/76. In this trailer, wrongly portrayed tank is computer-generated; so, it could have been done accurately without any major effort if the producers cared enough about the battle, or the story they were telling.
Stalingrad. The place where the hope reborned from ashes. So real it looks and Impressive! Only God knows what happened there in this ferocious battle! The first massive battle when the german lost finally. Wish i could play it on a video game
I can only imagine how much bloodier this would've been if we'd sent the Soviets M1897s as part of the Lend Lease deal. Because you know how much the Germans loved taking on the Trench Gun.
I have seen this movie several times and remain staggered by the realistic portrayal of what it means to be in ground combat with a determined foe. Yes, the Nazis were in the wrong, and the defense of the city required a terrible price for the Russian people, but you have to admire both sides and the total commitment by the soldiers involved. Saving Private Ryan, and the Longest Day remain big contenders for most realistic combat footage, but in my opinion this movie does the best job of showing us how really terrible war really is.
Dear David, The Saving Private Ryan movie it is a fake in history side - just good made Hollywood movie. If you want to know truth about Germans SS I suggest to you see the USSR movi "Go and See". It was in Belarus.
In Russia, this film and other modern Russian films about the Second World War are considered by war veterans to be pure shit and a mockery of the memory of the dead.
@@АлександрФишер-ъ9я Well, I respect your feelings and those of your countrymen. I have never been in combat, although I have worked with many veterans and of course studied the environment of combat and the effects of "war" on the human psyche. I suspect that the passion of your comment might reflect some connection to your environment and the nature of your government and how the individual is perceived by the both the Russian government and society as a whole. Just saying. Remember this: no "movie" will ever be able to 'accurately" capture reality; reality is just that, what is real. A movie is just an attempt to capture an event in a manner that can be shared with others, just as a picture or painting attempts to preserve an emotion or memory.
Stalingrad was a serious blow for the German Wehrmacht indeed. If it marked the turning of the tide is doubtful. German Wehrmacht lost the initiative and the tide was leveled. They could no longer dictate where and when a battle was fought. Kursk was the final turning of the tide when the initiative went to the Soviets completely.
Not to mention that, but one thing a lot of historians either get wrong or just skip over, is that the battle of Stalingrad actually started multiple miles away from the city itself, where the fighting began on the west side of the Don river. The Soviets were able to slow down the 6th Army's advance, as contrary to what wikipedia says the actual fight for the city began in late July. The real problem, was Hitler and the OKH's decision to split Army Group South up into two separate army groups, Army Group A and Army Group B. Instead of having the entirety of Army Group South drive into Stalingrad, and then take the city to cut off the Soviet troops in the Caucasus first, the forces were split into two smaller army groups, one to head towards Stalingrad (which actually wasn't even the original objective at first), and one to head into the Caucasus. Hitler thought that by taking the Caucasus immediately he'd be able to secure badly needed oil for the Wehrmacht who's supply lines were too far overstretched, and they did indeed actually take largest of the oil fields... the only problem was that they weren't able to benefit from this at all because the Soviets so thoroughly destroyed the oil fields that the German government predicted it'd be six months before they would be able to start drawing oil from it.

Hey I am in love with your videos Siriusly never stop doing these no mater what this keeps me entertained and on suggesting if you can do some of the iron man movies if you can
@@jamesestrada2716 The Russian soldiers had no choice but to keep charging, alight or not. Their Jewish commissars wouldn't be too far away and the Russian soldiers knew they would die anyway.
Yeah, in reality the Germans controlled 96% of the city and the Red army only held out at Murmayev Kurgan and the factory area, it was the Soviet counteroffensive that encircled and decimated the 6th army inside the city because of the ill-equipped Romanian and Italian armies and the overall Russian winter. Most of the Germans at Stalingrad were killed by natural causes, not direct combat with the red army, the red army however lost a million men due to direct combat.
In the battle of Stalingrad, the Germans and their allies killed 1.5 million people, the losses of Soviet troops were 1.2 million! This data is from Wikipedia ...
When germans gave up they were eating just 2 slices of bread for all day, totally helpless. Hitler made Paulus field marshal not to surrender but couldn’t change the result.
What natual causes are you talking about lmao? Do you mean that the Soviets didn't freeze or what? They beat the Germans fair and square, to the last one of them. That, and also you don't have any proof to back up for your words, aside from personal biases.
Oddly enough, that really did happen. One of the defenders was an artillery expert and figured he could fire a round to ricochet of the tank and hit the German supply dump hidden around the corner. It was at the battle of Pavlov's house
There's a youtube channel in which the producers look for the graves of soldiers, Russian and German, to move them to proper cemeteries and document it. I think we get acclimated to war because of movies and we still get lost in the numbers. Don't get me wrong, these movies are very valuable. I think it helps, with the World Wars at least, to see the actual places and get as much non-fiction as we can to remind ourselves that these filmmakers are not exaggerating. The scale of WWII, Eastern Front, staggers the mind. So when they find the graves, you see the actual bones and the damage to those bones. Amputated legs, shattered skulls, bullet holes, shrapnel, and all the bones, box after box. Every one of these men were some woman's son, it's a loss that is maddening. Many of those mother's, too, were killed. Try to wrap your head around that.
@@cecilrichardson2558 sure lets question the resistance put up by the Red Army. Or the soviet soldiers holding out against all odds, even after all hope lost, to the last man, to the last bullet. The nazis themselves admitted this.
I love the scene where that guy is taking boots off dead bodies and tries one on and in a sigh of relief says “they fit” because he’s been wearing small boots for weeks.
I'm a naturalized Russian citizen and I've been to Volgograd (formerly Stalingrad). I remember the tall statue of the woman holding the sword to commemorate the fallen soldiers of Stalingrad. I also remember how beautiful and clean Volgograd was. I now have a 6 year old Russian son
Thanks for sharing - some seriously gritty close quarter stuff in there. I note that all the human waves that got chewed up en masse by MG42s didn't make the film, but there's no denying that as things grew more bleak for the German 6th Army in the pocket, they certainly wouldn't have been invincible uber-warriors able to massacre an unending tide of Red conscripts. Also, a big shout out to the Panzer IV platoon - war gamers these days are used to rolling their eyes at the humble PV IV, but the scene where they roll in at the head of the grenadiers is quality. Makes a change from the usual T-34 onslaught often seen in films.
The T-36 was a absolute piece of fucking shit. So shitty was it in fact, that there are numerous records of T-34's being destroyed... by PANZER II's. OF ALL TANKS, PANZER FUCKING TWOS. There's a reason Russia was desperate to get rid of their T-34 stockpile at the end of the Second World War, selling them to nations across the globe (including Warsaw Pact nations) at very low price. If it was so amazing as claimed, they wouldn't have been in an absolute hurry to get rid of the goddamn things and start building better designed tanks. The T-34 gets waaaaay too much props, it wasn't some kind of insane war winner that "rolled over the Reich", because the Russians already had am ample supply of T-34's at the start of the war... which were getting pulverized by Panzer II's and even sustained Pak gun fire, which wouldn't penetrate the armor but would cause spalling that would proceed to grind up the very tightly packed tank crew into mince meat. Not to mention that one round from a Stug was able to rip right through it's armor like it was tissue paper. And yes, the Panzer IV was not some masterpiece of engineering and had it's own share of technical issues, but in good fighting conditions it was definitely a beast. The German's understood better than the Russians that tanks were best used as infantry support, not as some monstrously heavy piece of shit that's over-armored, but still ends up getting taken out with a 88 shot anyways (I'm looking at you, KV-I and KV-II).

Authenticity is always extremely important when making a movie about something as pivotal as the battle of Stalingrad. Since there are absolutely no recorded incidences of Soviet soldiers, their uniforms ablaze with petrol, attacking German positions while slowly being burned alive, the question begs to be asked, "Why go through all the trouble to make a movie like this and then ruin it with ridiculous scenes that everyone knows are simply not true?"
Not entirely agree with you. In some points, if we talking about movie especially about something historically about WW2, the director should consider ask for the historian gun experts, vehicles experts, and other expertise for more accurately moments. If he have done that before. Or maybe consider it, as documentaries series. Perhaps that would be a chance to show how accurately the director depicts the scenes.
But then, we sometimes also forgot the first existence of the movie itself. The basic of creating some movies is 'to entertaint'. How many movies already 'ruin', name on it. "T-34", "300", "Saving Private Ryan", 47 Ronin". They took the basic of the main story of it. But then, of course, have to serve to the people who loves the entertainment. To develop the saga, the fantasy, their imagination, and any other visualized thing that they probably still mesmerized with it.
@@tiopinter You are correct that the aim is to entertain and not necessarily educate but there are limits to this. The director could have found perhaps another, more believable, way to entertain the audience than employing scenes that border on the ridiculous if not impossible.
I'm hesitant to use the word propaganda but that's basically what this is, that's why they have insane scenes like that showing the red army as almost superhuman in their dedication, it beats the reality of a bunch of terrified young conscripts being sent to the meat grinder by commanding officers who would shoot them on sight if they attempted to turn back. Most war movies are propaganda in favour of the country in which they were made with varying degrees of subtlety. This movie was directed, written, and produced by Russians, a people not known for subtlety in their patriotism.

3:42 An anti-tank round can not ricochet 90 degrees that accurately off the tank as shown in the scene, the most degrees the round could ricochet is maybe 170 or maximum 160 degrees. Everything happening in these scenes is unrealistic
It wasn't a bullet, but an anti-tank round. Still, you are correct. It would have spiraled in to the building.
Yea you are right also sorry about confusing a bullet with anti-tank round.
And because armour is sloped it would go up and not straight...
As much as fury
It's a movie...
No Germans or Russians were injured during the filming of this movie.
Because its all CGI.
Only the viewers suffered mild trauma to the eardrums
I could say that the flaming soldiers scene attacking the terrified german soldiers is a reference of the attack of the dead at the battle of Osowiec Fortress WW1 in 1915
Perfect Fighting. Director must get Nobel prize.
Yeah, Schurzen in Stalingrad, Nov. 42, for sure. This is how (not) serious the producers are. Please try to watch Russo-German movie "Stalingrad" of 90's. It is true that for instance in that movie (which I suggested) a T-34/85 was used (inaccurate for Stalingrad battle) but it was because only real working tanks were used and it was hard (if not impossible) to find a running T-34/76. In this trailer, wrongly portrayed tank is computer-generated; so, it could have been done accurately without any major effort if the producers cared enough about the battle, or the story they were telling.

Stalingrad. The place where the hope reborned from ashes. So real it looks and Impressive! Only God knows what happened there in this ferocious battle! The first massive battle when the german lost finally. Wish i could play it on a video game
I can only imagine how much bloodier this would've been if we'd sent the Soviets M1897s as part of the Lend Lease deal.
Because you know how much the Germans loved taking on the Trench Gun.
I have seen this movie several times and remain staggered by the realistic portrayal of what it means to be in ground combat with a determined foe. Yes, the Nazis were in the wrong, and the defense of the city required a terrible price for the Russian people, but you have to admire both sides and the total commitment by the soldiers involved. Saving Private Ryan, and the Longest Day remain big contenders for most realistic combat footage, but in my opinion this movie does the best job of showing us how really terrible war really is.
Dear David, The Saving Private Ryan movie it is a fake in history side - just good made Hollywood movie. If you want to know truth about Germans SS I suggest to you see the USSR movi "Go and See". It was in Belarus.
This is crap, if you want a realistic battle watch "Unsere Mütter , unsere Väter" .
Stalingrad was the city of the Soviet Union so why did the Russian people found difficult to build the defensive???
In Russia, this film and other modern Russian films about the Second World War are considered by war veterans to be pure shit and a mockery of the memory of the dead.
@@АлександрФишер-ъ9я Well, I respect your feelings and those of your countrymen. I have never been in combat, although I have worked with many veterans and of course studied the environment of combat and the effects of "war" on the human psyche. I suspect that the passion of your comment might reflect some connection to your environment and the nature of your government and how the individual is perceived by the both the Russian government and society as a whole. Just saying. Remember this: no "movie" will ever be able to 'accurately" capture reality; reality is just that, what is real. A movie is just an attempt to capture an event in a manner that can be shared with others, just as a picture or painting attempts to preserve an emotion or memory.
Stalingrad was a serious blow for the German Wehrmacht indeed. If it marked the turning of the tide is doubtful. German Wehrmacht lost the initiative and the tide was leveled. They could no longer dictate where and when a battle was fought. Kursk was the final turning of the tide when the initiative went to the Soviets completely.
Not to mention that, but one thing a lot of historians either get wrong or just skip over, is that the battle of Stalingrad actually started multiple miles away from the city itself, where the fighting began on the west side of the Don river. The Soviets were able to slow down the 6th Army's advance, as contrary to what wikipedia says the actual fight for the city began in late July.
The real problem, was Hitler and the OKH's decision to split Army Group South up into two separate army groups, Army Group A and Army Group B. Instead of having the entirety of Army Group South drive into Stalingrad, and then take the city to cut off the Soviet troops in the Caucasus first, the forces were split into two smaller army groups, one to head towards Stalingrad (which actually wasn't even the original objective at first), and one to head into the Caucasus. Hitler thought that by taking the Caucasus immediately he'd be able to secure badly needed oil for the Wehrmacht who's supply lines were too far overstretched, and they did indeed actually take largest of the oil fields... the only problem was that they weren't able to benefit from this at all because the Soviets so thoroughly destroyed the oil fields that the German government predicted it'd be six months before they would be able to start drawing oil from it.

i agree.
Soviet Zombies.
Yeah, in reality the Germans controlled 96% of the city and the Red army only held out at Murmayev Kurgan and the factory area, it was the Soviet counteroffensive that encircled and decimated the 6th army inside the city because of the ill-equipped Romanian and Italian armies and the overall Russian winter. Most of the Germans at Stalingrad were killed by natural causes, not direct combat with the red army, the red army however lost a million men due to direct combat.
Actually, Germans lost more men to fatigue when soldiers just dropped dead from shooting Soviets 24/7
In the battle of Stalingrad, the Germans and their allies killed 1.5 million people, the losses of Soviet troops were 1.2 million! This data is from Wikipedia ...
When germans gave up they were eating just 2 slices of bread for all day, totally helpless. Hitler made Paulus field marshal not to surrender but couldn’t change the result.
mother nature is a bitch... even in mother russia
What natual causes are you talking about lmao? Do you mean that the Soviets didn't freeze or what? They beat the Germans fair and square, to the last one of them. That, and also you don't have any proof to back up for your words, aside from personal biases.
3:43 trickshot complimation
Oddly enough, that really did happen. One of the defenders was an artillery expert and figured he could fire a round to ricochet of the tank and hit the German supply dump hidden around the corner. It was at the battle of Pavlov's house
I feel bad for those who die without pulling a weapon
There's a youtube channel in which the producers look for the graves of soldiers, Russian and German, to move them to proper cemeteries and document it. I think we get acclimated to war because of movies and we still get lost in the numbers. Don't get me wrong, these movies are very valuable. I think it helps, with the World Wars at least, to see the actual places and get as much non-fiction as we can to remind ourselves that these filmmakers are not exaggerating. The scale of WWII, Eastern Front, staggers the mind. So when they find the graves, you see the actual bones and the damage to those bones. Amputated legs, shattered skulls, bullet holes, shrapnel, and all the bones, box after box. Every one of these men were some woman's son, it's a loss that is maddening. Many of those mother's, too, were killed. Try to wrap your head around that.

@@ronin6100 Thank you
Thanks for sharing - some seriously gritty close quarter stuff in there. I note that all the human waves that got chewed up en masse by MG42s didn't make the film, but there's no denying that as things grew more bleak for the German 6th Army in the pocket, they certainly wouldn't have been invincible uber-warriors able to massacre an unending tide of Red conscripts.
Also, a big shout out to the Panzer IV platoon - war gamers these days are used to rolling their eyes at the humble PV IV, but the scene where they roll in at the head of the grenadiers is quality. Makes a change from the usual T-34 onslaught often seen in films.
The T-36 was a absolute piece of fucking shit. So shitty was it in fact, that there are numerous records of T-34's being destroyed... by PANZER II's. OF ALL TANKS, PANZER FUCKING TWOS. There's a reason Russia was desperate to get rid of their T-34 stockpile at the end of the Second World War, selling them to nations across the globe (including Warsaw Pact nations) at very low price. If it was so amazing as claimed, they wouldn't have been in an absolute hurry to get rid of the goddamn things and start building better designed tanks. The T-34 gets waaaaay too much props, it wasn't some kind of insane war winner that "rolled over the Reich", because the Russians already had am ample supply of T-34's at the start of the war... which were getting pulverized by Panzer II's and even sustained Pak gun fire, which wouldn't penetrate the armor but would cause spalling that would proceed to grind up the very tightly packed tank crew into mince meat. Not to mention that one round from a Stug was able to rip right through it's armor like it was tissue paper.
And yes, the Panzer IV was not some masterpiece of engineering and had it's own share of technical issues, but in good fighting conditions it was definitely a beast. The German's understood better than the Russians that tanks were best used as infantry support, not as some monstrously heavy piece of shit that's over-armored, but still ends up getting taken out with a 88 shot anyways (I'm looking at you, KV-I and KV-II).
