Movie Reviews of The Bridge at Remagen
Movie Review: Seems to Drag a Little
Summary: 3 Stars
The capture of "The Bridge at Remagen" is among the highlights of the very late stage of the European war, and I was hoping this film would help get a better appreciation of the actual event itself. In a way, it does, but it's not a docudrama like "The Longest Day." Instead, it's your typical 1960s war picture, reflecting the domestic attitudes of that decade. Here, you see Americans pilfering from dead Germans, rather than giving war-ravaged children Hershey bars. And George Segal's character is difficult to embrace even though he's the film's protagonist. It's not until the very final minutes of the film that you understand that's the way it' supposed to be. These men have been through hell and back and they're very hardened by the experience of war. Unfortunately, you spend nearly two hours with them without finding them very likeable. If you like run-of-the mill war pictures, this will suit you. If you're hoping for a film about this event comparable to "The Longest Day" or "Tora Tora Tora," you'll be a little disappointed.Movie Review: Good film, but little realism
Summary: 3 Stars
The film is not bad, for it's as spectacular as one might expect and the budget is not low: but since "Saving Private Ryan" on, genuine military buffs have understood what is that subtle sense of disappointment they feel when watching movies like this: lack of realism, that is portraying war the way it IS and not the way some movie-makers think it COULD or it SHOULD be! Uniforms should look like UNIFORMS and not just COSTUMES, and combat should look like COMBAT and not just ACTING combat. And the same could be said for most war movies of the '50's to the '80's.Movie Review: A quick closure of the war?
Summary: 3 Stars
It would be unfair to label this movie as a classic however to its credit, 'The Bridge at Remagen' relies on its outstanding historical content more so than the actors and its direction ability. Although there are some creditable battle scenes, i feel the ending was a little anti-climatic and at times there seemed to be a unauthentic side to the whole script. On the whole, id say that the film is a good overview of the concluding stages of world war 2 and a must see for all war film enthusiasts, if only to judge for yourself.Movie Review: Bridge At Remagen
Summary: 3 Stars
An action protrayal of an important event of World War II. I think you will like this if you like historical movies with the additions of Hollywood.Movie Review: Watch and forget

My thinking is in the title.
To much war movies were produce at that time. It s a petty
