Movie Reviews of Saints and Soldiers
Movie Review: rather short ... but ... quite poignant
Summary: 4 Stars
Just finished watching this 90 minutes flick since I heard some good reviews about it, and also love WWII movies. As you probably know, this movie presents the story of a few American GIs and one RAF (royal air force) solider during the Battle of the Bulge and the brutal massacre of Malmedy (Belgium).
While the movie has its moments of good fire-power, blood & gore, the title of the movie and the character developments reminds one about the transcendent message - life is temporary, life is precious, friendships have no borders. The central character, Deac (short for "deacon" because of his "square" life and religious practice) ends up influencing more than one life - an American fellow comrade, a former German Berlin friend (thru pure coincidence or divine fate), and this viewer.
The producer and director captured very well the difference between being a professional soldier and being a friend, husband, father. The complex roles that a soldier can have just show how human one is.
A big thumbs up for "Saints and Soldiers."
