The kids were too well trained
I just finished watching Die Brucke and i enjoyed it very much. It´s one of the best anti-war films that I´ve ever seen, and it constantly reminded me of All quiet on the western front (the 1930´s version).
I have only one complaint. I thought the kids were too well trained, for being in the army for just one day. I mean, they knew how to operate MG42s, panzerfausts, MP40s, MP44s, after only one day! Plus, they did a excellent job defending the bridge.
I think they would have had a hard time just getting used to the kick of their mausers on their first day.
