Makes a run for the gun circle....
How would you rate it amongst other Stalingrad films?

Mine goes like:

1.) Stalingrad
2.) Enemy at the Gates
3.) Stalingrad

Stalingrad is probably one of the worst war films I've seen, while Stalingrad is really pretty great.

I haven't seen either of those movies, although I have seen Enemy at the Gates. Hell, it's one of my favorite flicks!

I read about Vasily Zaytsev as a kid and the story always fascinated me so when the movie came out I snuck in with a few friends, I was only like 16 at the time. That's my story.

Better story than Stalingrad, but not quite as good as Stalingrad.

Joseph Fiennes. Now there's someone whose career didn't really take off much after starring in a Best Picture winner.

The focus isn't really on the battle, it's more about the characters and the war is used as a setting

My story is much more bland and inane.

I went there with a new friend and the guy at the box office was new to his job and verbally repeating everyone's orders. So I asked for Enema at the Gates. He repeated it and I laughed at him.

That and the unnecessary loving scene was the only thing I remember from the film.

The one with the nasty "bet they wish they'd taken a bath first" loving in between sleeping people on the floor or the "yeah, right, because the german sniper hunting in that area wouldn't have heard them loving and killed them both" one?
