T-34

I found this to be a well produced yarn. My only gripe was the mad idea by some producer or other to dub over the Russian actors, while subtitling the german tank crews. Not only was it dubbed, it was appaling cod americaneese with unrussian responses like "Sir, yes sir!" Perhaps they weren't russian tank crews at all, maybe the Soviet army was made up of navy seals. One russian even said to another "just you cool it". Was the dubbing crew drunk or just vandals. I nearly deleted my sky rental of this movie because of this but stuck with it as it is a tight, if unlikely thrilling yarn.

This was a thoroughly enjoyable WW II movie, with excellent acting, direction and special effects.

The story is about the struggle of a brave and determined Russian tank commander and his handful of men, and a courageous woman he met in a Nazi POW camp. A single Russian T-34 tank has to get past multiple German Tiger tanks for the group to survive.

As a War-Thunder player, it makes me so excited. But as a movie watcher, it can not be considered as a good movie for me. However, this movie is not bad for common watchers. Complete story,plump characters and real tanks!!! What can be better than this! So if you are a tank enthusiast or War-Thunder player, please, you must watch it. If you have a little interest in tank or WWII, I also advise you to have a try, believe you will not be disappointed after finishing it

This film is quite remarkably the best I have seen from Russia in the recent years. Despite negative reviews from Hollywood film hardened fans who always perceive russia as a poor 'money laundering' state, this film does more than just prove them wrong by presenting stellar filming technique and a very different Point of View.

Really enjoyed this movie. A good story and full of action. What makes this movie special was, the slow motion scenes of how the tanks fired to each other, there explosions and how the crew reacts to everything. The "love story" was strange. I wold have liked it more if they kept on task instead of in pants. Falling in love on the first girl who translates your words never works.

I'm giving it a 10 because of I was on the edge of my seat the whole movie. Have not seen this delivered by Hollywood in a long time. I do have a few points to make out about this movie.

Point 1: I saw the russian and german spoken movie with english subs. What first disturbed me was that the german dialogue was narrated. I could not hear clearly what was said when the germans spoke. Why Russians make movies and dub over it with or use a narrator is a strange choice for me because i'm Dutch and we picked subtitles, because it was cheaper (the Dutch way) back in the day and as a plus for this later on was that we learned easier foreign languages from tv. Plus is that the narrator has a good calm voice, so he is not annoying. I was happy that Irina Starshenbaum her translating started so this was brought back to a minimum.

Point 2: After 12,5 minutes to 35 minutes we see that the tanks are escorted by footsoldiers. At the end we don't see the footsoldiers anymore. Maybe when this movie is remade after 55 years we can have them add a scene where they find machinegun bullets for that gun and the footsoldiers are back? It could be then a Clint Eastwood scene as in "Where Eagles Dare" on the staircase

Point 3: Remarks I read about the CGI or the, etc ...Lower budgets and the actors look under payed, there is no more money for beter CGI. Maybe with a higher budget this movie would have been even greater. I don't think this movie even came out in my country. The budget it says it was estimated 10,000,000. And the Worldwide Gross 35,950,901. The movie Fury had a budget of 68,000,000 and the cumulative Worldwide Gross $211,817,906. So 2 tank movies... Fury was good but if it had 1/6 of it's budget it would have never been a good movie.
