A Última Linha de Defesa

Full of German tanks including Panzer I, Panzer II, Panzer III, Stug and T38 Skoda on screen makes all military fans must not miss the movie at all. Strongly recommended.

Itunes only sold the english dub version with i didn't see until after i bought it. Russians speaking with cartoon american accents... i mean this is 2021... listening to russians speaking english is bad enough can't they at least have russian accents? Or at least not terrible american ones that sound like they are from a 1980s kung fu movie? The movie is great when they are not talking. Watch the original language and subtitles if you don't want to hate this movie and love it instead. Seriously.

New huge step in quality in modern Russian war movie industry. Huge attention to details and superb casting. I would not call acting superb, but it's decent and overall story, though quite simple, is effective in telling a story of heroism of Podolsk Cadets, who, basically, saved Moscow in October'41.

This is not standard Hollywood propaganda movie. You will not see protagonists-superheroes that vanquish stupid weak enemies in front of national flag in flowing capes. Be ready for gritty war movie that shows suffering, panicked soldiers and dying heroes that you would love to see survive into happy end.

Must see for everyone who like war movies or want to experience horrors and heroism on WW2 Eastern Front.

Basically the first 30 minutes might give you the opinion this movie suck. I had a really hard time cooping with the dubbing and what it looked like bad effects. I decided to give it a shot though.

However, the effects are sometimes massive, perhaps especially the scene with the medium bomber. Rating from fairly good to great.

But I think the Germans are portraied in a better way speeking native language.

Dubbing takes some stars out of this movie and a pretty boring first 30 min ending up in good overall.

First, the production quality is really top notch. Very impressive camera work too 10/10 Set 10/10 Second, cast is good and believable. Acting is above average 7/10. Chemistry between the leads is 8/10.

Third, fight sequences are gritty and gripping. You just don't know whats about to happen next 9/10.

Fourth, there are some trope elements but it's alright and forgivable 6/10.

Won't comment on the historical accuracy but the attention to detail of the props, tanks, artillery, outfits was nice. Very professional. Now there's some love angle here and there, but these are kids who went to war! Most of their behaviour also seems justified because of this fact. It's a slightly dark movie in it's overall tone of colour grading as well as the mood.

Overall, recommended.

Easily a one time watch.
