Title: A long epic
Review: 2,000 men out of 10,000 survived in the charge for the five bridge. "I alway thought, we went one bridge too far". The movie is heavy with carnage, death, and civilian habitat destruction and decimation. The generals knew the campaign would be lost, if they did not keep schedule. Difficulties arose in logistics, defensive support, and interference by German Panzer divisions.The movie is worth seeing, but don't expect alot of humour. The movie theme is very similiar to the movie "Patton" with its historical action direction. This movie is about a desparate attempt to establish a glorious "D-day" invasion by capture five key bridges. "Men die in war" was the cold calculated statement, as the Generals abandoned support for the fifth bridge. A cold cynical look at risk and lose in war.
