When Brad Pitt is standing on top of the tank surrounded by hundreds of Germans shooting at him under the cover of darkness, with all of their bullets missing while he's shooting them down one by one. I was expecting him to say "Say hello to my little friend!" And then that one guy, the mysterious sniper, ends up killing him. Just like in Scarface where that lone terminator looking guy with the shotgun killing Tony.
Ya right! Blami! I’m gonna shoot your face parts and your crotch! Shoot shoot! Take out you suckas like milleria
shareIt is a bit ridiculous, but do remember that ridiculous things like this have happened in war, and have been documented. I watched the Netflix docu-series about the MOH recently and two people (at least) had stands like this. One guy defended a street for like two days, killing unknown numbers, with a scoped rifle and a BAR (I believe). He fought of many waves of attacks, including by mounted infantry (vehicles). Another guy, during Korea, held a full line overnight, running between 5 positions on a hillside. This stuff could happen, though I agree to make up a story like this does feel a bit ridiculous.
shareYeah, I started thinking Scarface too once they showed the random sniper.
As for the fact that all of his bullets hit while all of the enemies bullets misses — that’s Hollywood. They’ve used that since the 1960s. People wouldn’t want to see a battle where the heroes die so easily.
thought they based it on real american Audie Murphy who got medal of honor
Yeah watched it first time last night (or watched the last half anyway) and I immediately thought 'Scarface' at the end.
I guess Scarface is such a seminal film for guys like Ayer (and Pitt) growing up its like 'ok we going Scarface for this end bit. don't give a fcuk if we get called out on it'
It was expressionistic... Makes you feel it more...
