MEN ON THE FRONT LINES OF HELL.

From visionary director Sam Peckinpah (The Wild Bunch, Major Dundee) comes a devastating war epic starring Academy Award winner James Coburn (The Magnificent Seven, The Great Escape) and Academy Award nominee James Mason (North By Northwest, Lolita).

Based on the acclaimed novel ‘The Wilting Flesh’ by Willi Heinrich, Cross Of Iron influenced Quentin Tarantino’s Inglourious Basterds (2009), and on release was praised by the great Orson Welles.

Rolf Steiner is a German corporal and recipient of the Iron Cross who has grown disenchanted with Hitler’s war machine. When Captain Stransky assumes charge, the pair are thrown into immediate conflict.

Endlich liegt der Film in der Uncut Version vor! Für das Alter des Films hat die Bluray ein tolles Bild! Ton ist ok.
Grandios...

Erinnter ein wenig an Platoon. Wirkt teilweise etwas billig. Aber alles in allem ein guter, solider Kriegsfilm.
