Slow Pacing
This movie isn't for those that want action all the time. It takes its time building up tension in scenes and always rewards you for your patience. If you can't get through the opening scene I don't think you'll enjoy the rest of this movie.

Old Fashioned Film
I like the style of this film in that it feels like an older movie. The visual quality is good but the setup doesn't look modern. This is most noticeable in the first round of ending credits.

The Killing Nazis Ending Scene
This scene is very well done and very chaotic. It is also graphic. Everything that happens in the movie is paid off in this scene. Yes, Hitler being shot at is very rewarding but I was too caught up in the scene to pay that much attention to it. I would suggest watching this movie if only for this scene.

Final Thoughts
For those that like to get immersed in a world, and don't mind a lot of dialogue, I would highly recommend this movie. Also, there are subtitles but don't let that fact make you not see the movie. If you don't like gore I would, of course, warn you away from this movie.
