What about numbers of soldiers? How many survive the first attack on the truck? It seems like they keep coming from i dont know where cause although some die the number remains almost the same. Moreover when u set an ambush or try to avoid a superior enemy force u DONT smoke and u dont try to take cover standing up behind a tree.Especially when the tree is thiner than u. I mean how many times do we have to see a sniper getting killed from a bullet through his skope right to his eye?I counted three times same scene (soldiers walking at night through trees and camera taking them from profil position.). It lacks of realism, accuracy, and pitty that all clises are used in that. This movie unfortunately is definately a bad movie. Overall I rate Company Of Heroes a definite rent for war buffs. Problems aside, Company Of Heroes plays out as a decent action/war flick. A 100 minute movie seems a bit short, given the subject matter, I would have liked to see more of perspective, from various command points of view and more story detail given to the super-weapon compound.
The story should have been fleshed out more. Sadly though, Company Of Heroes has a few shortfalls. The uniforms looked old and tattered, as they should from long battles. I am not a WWII buff, so I cannot comment with regards to the historical accuracy of Company Of Heroes, but I can say at least a valient attempt is made to exclude most, I say most, present day colloquialisms. A splash of beauty thrown in with sultry actress Melia Kreiling as Krestrel, who helps the soldiers in the secret weapons area, makes sure this testosterone fest, does not forget the fairer sex. Company Of Heroes has a few bright spots with the gritty performances of Chad Michael Collins as the young gun sniper and Tom Sizemore as the grizzled old vet, who is busted down in rank to cook.
