this film be strongly recommend by a friend and and be a great fan of brando and i order this film from harrod and eagerly wait for it to arrive . i have seldom be so disappointed by a film . brando be good a a german officer but the rest of the film be simply unbearable . you never get to like or care for any of the character ( except brando and maybe ) . the acting be ok. story and what story . maybe that the point . it war after all and but i have see far well war film . ( lawrence of arabia and apocalypse now and even star war ) it be so boring i keep check my watch . overall this be one of the bad film i have see . please do not waste your time and money on this . may i also add that this be the first user comment i have write and i just have to let my feeling about this film know . by the way and my all time favourite be represent casablanca and the godfather 1 and 2 and one flew over the cuckoo nest and pulp fiction and amadeus . if you haven not see them yet and please spare the time to do so . and amadeus must be in widescreen 2 . 35 represent1 .
