I saw Age of Heroes a while ago, could've and should've been a lot better, wouldn't recommend it. Horrible ending, too.

Watched Miracle at St. Anna yesterday, a bit better, but not really sure about that one either. Too long, mediocre battle scenes, but I actually liked the supernatural theme to it and the rare portraying of black US soldiers, although they were not done justice I believe. One small scene which was memorable for me, was a prayer scene, where 3 nations in war do the same prayer for salvation, in three languages at the same time. Who is God gonna root for? Bless the US? Germany? Italy? Also, the Bandenbefehl sequence left a big impression, of course.

Quik answer...

God is with those... who are with Him.

:)

Not so quick answer...

Story of a person who made 'peace' with God and enjoyed His sweet presence...

When one day that person said, " I can't sense His presence!"
*answer: God didn't move. He is still there. You did. (moved).

So ~~~ Move Back! Wink

I just watched The Flowers of War.

"A Westerner finds refuge with a group of women in a church during Japan's rape of Nanking in 1937. Posing as a priest, he attempts to lead the women to safety."

Was a good movie. I found it intense in many scenes. Action scenes were very gruesome. I reccommend to anyone here.

Question about it though. The Chinese soldiers defending the city were wearing what looked like to be German helmets, they had stick grenades as well. Is this Hollywood or fact?

Hey Mooxe,

Yes, that's a historical fact - Germany was supplying weapons and equipment to China in mid 30s, including several Panzer I.

Give Max Manus (Norweigan resistance WW2 film) a go..
Not a common one to see mentioned on this type of forum, though I'd give it 8.5/10..
