I am honestly surprised by the somewhat middle of the ballpark reviews, I truly thought this movie was genuinely well done and told a very captivating story. As a history buff I love any history piece movie even if its barely accurate to the real events, as long as it still delivers the feel of what its supposed to be and this movie does just that. It stars Jude Law as a young village boy drafted to fight for the Soviet Army in WWII and quickly becomes an Icon among his comrades and the Russian people for his heroic exploits and extremely high kill count as a sniper during the 5 month battle of Stalingrad. The movies main nazi antagonist and rival sniper is played by Ed Harris and he along with Jude Law do a wonderful job. I highly recommend this movie to anyone looking for something that may have slipped past their radar as this one did mine for years.
