In about six minutes you lose comrades, cut-down in an instant. People you may have spent months, or years, fighting alongside. Perhaps you trained together, knew them in civilian life. Now they're gone, just like that. Their friends & family will never see them again; perhaps, they will have a grave to visit, but many won't even have that small comfort - just some faded photographs & a few medals. You may be thousands of miles from home, fighting to the death with strangers in some random woodland. It is terrifying & surreal, it may affect you for the rest of your life. War is not glorious, it is mass insanity.

Literally the first time in film/shows/games that I have seen someone fire an STG44/MP44 on semi auto. This is amazing all around. A lot of productions use over-the-top action and gore to drive up the intensity, but this was so tense, and most tension came during the inter-combat periods. Just them waiting to see where they would be attacked from next, it was so good!

[@TheTibetyak]

Kind of memorable. Memorable enough that I recall in one of the final scenes of Brad Pitt's character in the movie of Fury, he selected semi-auto just before running out of ammo. Then he used it as a bat. Then it went to the ground. And I said, "NOOOOooooooooo"!!!!!!!! My anguish was not for the character, but for the STG.

Сериал конечно интересно посмотреть, но как поставлены бои - бред.. В принципе для таких низкобюджетных короткометражек неплохо, но некоторые моменты "забавные", если такое слово вообще применительно к той войне. На одном из кадров я заметил полностью охолощённый МГ-42 без ствола, только кожух а через перфорированные в нём отверстия видно что ствола там нет и насквозь пустота. И это был показан не момент его смены, а как из него ведётся бой. Так же преподносят историю главного героя как благородного солдата, но в то же время показывают как он кровожадно перерезает горло одному из безоружных пленных так что кровь бьёт фонтаном, попросту жестоко казнив его. Всё-таки все они были тварями, как собственно сценаристы и продюсеры этого фильма снятого спустя столько лет. Все эти посылы, как он вспоминает о мирном времени до войны, свою погибшую от бомбардировки девушку, как он тоскует и т.д. всё это вроде как должно вызывать жалость и сочувствие у зрителя, но что бы они знали о настоящих тяготах и лишениях в той войне что испытывали люди особенно советской стороны, чьё мирное, гражданское население, стариков и детей истреблялось и сжигалось заживо целыми деревнями, а молодых беззащитных женщин и девочек, по сути ещё детей, насиловали и никто не брезговал входить в такой близкий контакт с "недолюдьми". А потом показывают этих выживших, недобитых фашистов седых стариканов-пердунов, ветеранов восточного фронта, берут у них интервью, и вроде как это уважаемые люди, типа герои, воевавшие за отчизну, и фатерланд. Знали бы те наши партизаны что боролись и приближали эту победу.. Без них этой победы просто не было бы. А ведь всё это было не так уж и давно, каких-то 80 лет назад. Но больше всего конечно поражает как развалили СССР.. и из такой державы сделали чуть ли не страну третьего мира, 90% населения которой живёт на одну зарплату на грани нищеты, с конским курсом ЕВРО или той же дойч-марки. В стране где хорошие дороги, автомобили, продукты народного потребления могут только сниться, в отличии от наших оппонентов. И при этом в настоящее время эта страна, а точнее её "верхушка" ещё умудряется вести войну, которая началась из-за претензий на Крымский п-ов, который лично мне и я уверен большинству нахер не упал.. мобилизовать население на эту бессмысленную и глупую войну. Опыт таких войн так ничему и не научил. Тогда люди реально шли на фронт и на свою верную смерть за отчизну, за свою семью лично. А сейчас это отмыв кровавых денег.. В том числе Сирия. Мы во всех бочках - затычка. Знали бы погибшие тогда в 40-х годах до чего докатиться страна и какую страну прое6али сначала Горбачёв, потом алкаш Боря и сейчас катимся в какую-то бездну и непонятное будущее. Просто позор. И теперь этот режим, который длиться и "честно" переизбирается подавляющим процентом голосов народонаселения уже двадцать лет. А что нас ждёт в будущем вообще трудно представить, ибо царь то наш не вечный, а по средней продолжительности жизни обычного работяги мужика который вкалывает как проклятый за копейки и даже не доживает до того увеличенного пенсионного возраста, и все его отчисления на пенсию вылетают в трубу, прямо в бюджет нашей единой и единственной партии, а мужик отправляется на заслуженный "отдых", но уже в землю. Либо если молодой мужик, то идёт и погибает на войне и тоже в землю. Она примет всех. Что-то меня не туда потянуло... Я про сериал хотел написать.

Excellent cinematography, the way the footage was shot gives an uncommonly realistic sense of accompanying the soldiers (particularly the "Zugführer"/squad leader) during the assault. Almost like the viewer is an invisible observer, love it. A good example of how this technique changes your viewing experience--you see the protagonist's realization of and reaction to the presence of a hostile shooter in the tree above him. Then, the enemy sniper up in the tree falls vertically into, and once again out of, your line of your of sight. The camera perspective is continuous & fixed level, as it would be if you were standing there looking at your squad leader...blink and you miss it. It makes all the difference when contrasted with the normal movie style in which you would suddenly cut to a new shot looking up at the tree from sufficiently far away to see how the sniper is positioned in the tree, how far up he is, what he looks like possibly even, then the impact of the bullets into him and his fall, before cutting to the next shot. In respect to realistic immersion, i mean

I'd love to see a full length feature by this film maker. Rolling camera work really puts you on the scene. Realistic action, movement and gunfire- death comes in a nano second as in real war.

[@fasi0078]

Großes Lob an Ludwig. Die Kameraführung ohne Schnitt ist wirklich Klasse. Das ist sein Meisterstück. Die schauspielerische Leistung ist ebenfalls außergewöhnlich gut. Die Stimmung wird sehr realistisch dargestellt, ohne Heldenepos. Da bekommt man einen Einblick, wie die einfachen Landser sich damals gefühlt haben müssen. Die Ungewissheit, ob man den nächsten Tag noch erlebt oder ob man selbst der Nächste ist. Auf jeden Fall Klasse Werk, meine Unterstützung habt ihr weiterhin.

[@kma3647]

It's good to see a WW2 film without propaganda built in. Just straight up action like you were there watching the fighting. It is a distinctly different perspective without the political messaging meant to give meaning to the fighting, and suffering, and dying we're watching. That includes the film-making: no heroic soundtracks, no exaggerated special effects, no "heroic" charges, or overacted deaths, just simple small infantry squad engagement. Sometimes, you want the story. Other times, you just want the unpolished truth. As I write this, I have to commend the artists for being able to communicate that emotion I just described so succinctly in just 6 minutes. I probably spent longer thinking, composing, and editing this comment. =)

American here. After my father recovered from his wounds from fighting Japanese, he was a POW guard at Fort Benning, Georgia. This was the first big group of German POW'S from North Africa. They worked on railroad tracks repair and maintenance, loved southern American food, and nobody ever talked politics. The German senior officer spoke good English, and the soldiers did excellent work and never complained.

Dying Russian would not ask for water from his enemy. SS soldier was supposed to shoot him right away.

[@leonidyevseyev888]

- it is definitely closer to the end of the war. The forest really looks more European, like in Germany, russian forests are quite different. Also - German assault rifles are more the feature of the showdown, which took place in Germany, not Poland. Also - giving water just like that to an enemy who just shot at you, killed your friends, etc. ---- VERY unlikely. SS officer would have immediately executed the enemy. Constant battle, loss of friends every day, - this would have brought aggressiveness, anger and desperate spontaneous fits... he would have more probably just shot the red soldier right there...
