It's -- horror. It's dark! All the victories of the Red Army pale and pale in comparison with the unreal combat successes of the Yugoslav partisans! I’ve probably never seen so many Germans and their allies wiped out with impunity! Believe me, this is something.
The whole film is bombed by guerrillas, it feels like half of the Luftwaffe (airplanes are a faint hint of a bomber version of the FW-190). And almost all the time they bomb past. Sometimes someone will get hit directly.
The whole film the Germans mercilessly flood the partisans with the corpses of their soldiers. German tanks -- oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, hilarious, tall freaks -- it feels like two human-sized monsters. Apparently, they were made from Shermans.
Half of the guerrillas with machine guns (and solid MG-42!), half with machine guns (MR-40). Where did they get so lucky? The Germans were mostly fired rifles.
When the Germans attack the partisans (of course, in crowds on machine guns) – as a result, all the surroundings are killed by the Germans. And when the guerrillas attack the Germans in exactly the same manner... Yes, in the end still mountains of German corpses, even the land can not be seen as densely lying. Partisans calmly, in full growth, without hiding, approach the German positions - and the Germans immediately drape, jumping out of the trenches, almost without firing! The second line of German fortifications guerrillas throw grenades almost at point-blank range, again standing in full height. Yes, even if the Germans are shooting from numerous machine guns at the crowd of attacking full-length partisans almost at point-blank range, then still - the losses of the partisans are several people, and the Germans are still the same mountains of corpses and smoking skeletons of tanks and armored personnel carriers. Neither planes nor armored vehicles nor artillery help the Germans. A mob of immortal guerrillas demolishes everything in its path with its own near-zero losses. Or maybe all the Germans just commit suicide out of shame for what kind of obtuse stupid nothingness they portrayed?
And all this magnificence the whole film is thoughtfully looked at by the sad but wise Tito.
Nightmare! I haven't seen this kind of cranberry in a long time!
