Saints and Soldiers
"The movie is about a small group of soldiers who are trapped deep behind enemy lines following the infamous Malmedy massacre that took place during World War II's Battle of the Bulge. The soldiers have vital enemy intelligence in their possession and decide to deliver it to the front lines, over 20 miles away. Success would require surviving the roving German troops and the frigid Ardennes forest. Armed with only one rifle, the men meet obstacle after obstacle, and must deal with the challenges, as well as the tension between their conflicting emotions. Things get increasingly more desperate until the climactic showdown with the German Army that tests the courage, honor, and camaraderie of the men."
Saints and Soldiers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I really enjoyed this movie, even with the ending. I think more movies need to be made like this to show the human emotion that goes into war.

Great movie. I own it. I have many WWII movies including The Great Escape, Where Eagles Dare, and The Eagle Has Landed.

Yep - good show. My dad was in the battle of the bulge, and he always said "If they show you a movie about the Battle of the Bulge, and it doesn't show a bunch of poor grunts freezing to death in the snow, it's not what happened."

Ohhh....

I'm not much of a war movie watcher but this movie was recommended by a friend. I watched it not only once but twice in a row...it was that good.

I watched it one night with my family. It's really good, but I felt kind of depressed afterwards. Loved it though.
