I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Crappy film

Absolutely the worst movie.

It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

I have to say I do not feel the rough critique of this film justified. Sure it is an Indie film and not of a million dollar budget. but they put a lot of effort into it, a lot of historic facts and nice war scenes, The tanks and guns were real not fake CGI and they made a serious effort here. I truly enjoyed it and watched it several times, there are some really good points to it, and the acting was solid on all parts. And of all the war films I have seen this is absolutely one of the better ones. And as film fans we should acknowledge those of smaller budgets not just run them over because they did not have a studio budget. solid story line and subplots they get a thumb up.

I have seen this movie twice! Just felt i had to start on a positive note since most of the reviews are bad ones;) This movie is a cheap production. Thats a fact. In many of the scenes I get the feeling that I'm watching a bunch of ww2 buff's that play war. but then the movie also has some decent battle scenes considering the budget. I haven't seen any major errors in Equipment (yes there might be some wrong tanks and a American flag from the fifties). however all the medals and uniforms are correct. the Russian cannon and handguns being used by the Germans are not prop-fails, they are very realistic as German soldiers at that time used everything they could to keep the Russians away. I have read some books written by Soldiers on the eastern front and the tactics being used are also relatively realistic.(some of them, indeed there are mistakes) There was a complaint that the Germans yelled panzer when the tanks appeared. That is exactly what they would have said. It IS the German word for tank. Or maybe the Germans built the pak.40(antitank cannon4.40) to take out their own tanks?;) Also, don't complain that the Russian are portrayed as subhuman assholes, most of the Hollywood movies I have seen does the same thing. Russians are off course just like everyone else but it is just natural that the Grunts of the red army looked a little ugly and weird. They had been at war for a long time, fighting a very resilient enemy.Now i don't like Nazis but I have a deep respect for the common Whermacht soldier. many of them where forced to war and in the end, they just fought for their own lives. even the SS wasn't all bad, many of them simply needed a job in the 30's or joined up to fight communism. The German soldier was just like every soldier in a major war. Afraid. Few of them where politically active and most companies would get a political officer that all the soldiers hated. most of us know that it is worse to have a bad boss than to work in his competition, so lets give the common German soldier of ww2 a break:)I didn't read all the reviews, so maybe all this have been said before. I don't care. I like this movie.just get past the fact that it is far below the budget of most war films, and one might find that the movie is good. There are times when the story feels choppy, but again it has a very low budget so I suppose parts could have been cut.I'll give it a 6 out of 10. could have been much better, but all in all, it's cool.

Where do I even begin? The plot jumps from character to character without any explanation of what is happening in the background. The "German" soldiers are 100% American, and do not even attempt a German accent. the main British soldiers also switch in and out of fake British accents. The main German characters are using Russian issued weapons. When people get shot,miraculously, they do not bleed. In fact, when most weapons are shot, you can tell that the sound and flash were added afterward, and the actors are just faking the kick. Some of the super-close up shots are filmed with blanks, but the majority of it is CGI. 2 men will hide behind a tree as big as my leg, and fight off an entire platoon...magically, there are no bullet holes in the tree. As far as acting goes, it goes from bad to worse as soon as the first scene is over. I love corny movies and bad acting, but it gets to a point where it's just too bad for words. I watched 3 chapters of this movie, and couldn't take it...I skipped forward to each chapter and tried to watch a little bit of each one,but it just kept getting worse. PLEASE do not waste your time!!!!

Dreary, self-conscious, heavy-handed hokum set in 1945 on the border of Poland and Germany finds German officer Captain Klaus Mueller(Tino Struckmann of "Redbelt") fighting a losing war as the savage Communists close in and the German Army runs low on ammunition. A British officer, Maj. Andrew Pearman (Hugh Daly of "The Race to Witch Mountain"), is acting as an observer with Stalin's Army. Unfortunately, Pearman witnesses some Soviet skullduggery on the part of Colonel Petrov (Michael Berryman of the original horror epic "The Hills Have Eyes") who has exiled Polish government officials and German troops massacred in the woods away from prying eyes. Pearman winds up in prison and watches as the merciless Soviets murder prisoners. Eventually, he manages to escape and joins up with Mueller. They set off for American lines. This meandering melodrama seems to go on forever. Director Jerry Buteyn takes himself too seriously and "Brother's War" becomes virtually unbearable.Like the infinitely better "Saving Private Ryan," "Brother's War" opens with an older, wiser Mueller returning to the battlefield to remember Pearman who was a fellow freemason. Pearman has evidence about Soviet perfidy and desperately strives to make it back to British lines to warn his countrymen about the Russians. Brother's War portrays German soldiers as dignified enemy and the Gestapo like black-hearted murderers. After Mueller and Pearman team up, they run into a fleeing woman, Anna (Hayley Carr of "Dead Babies"), who has a soft-spot for wounded soldiers and wants to tend to them. Do not waste your time. The CGI special effects are marginal. The Germans--except for the Gestapo--are presented in a positive light, while the Russians are demonized. Berryman makes a terrific villain. Sadly, there are few combat sequences and they are poorly staged. The ending is tragic. Clearly, director Buteyn was trying to recapture the cynicism of 1970s World War II movies about the German Army, such as "Cross of Iron," "Sergeant Steiner," and "The Eagle Has Landed."
