I am going to Watch this with my Son in few minutes and want to share with you. This movie is a must for anyone that likes WWII Movies or collect them like me. Hope you take your time to watch it. Here is a review...

Defiance is a film about the will to live, revenge and moral conflict set in the midst of the slaughter of Jews in 1941. Based on the book Defiance: The Bielski Partisans by Dr. Nechama Tec, director Edward Zwick crafts an emotional and heart wrenching tale of three Jewish brothers who struggle to avenge the murders of their loved ones while searching their souls for their own identity.
“ What I’m saying is we are not thieves or murderers, we may be hunted like animals but we will not become animals.“

If this movie were a Newegg product it would get 5 eggs out of 5.

Yeah. I've been hearing about this one for a while. Apparently a family friend of ours is some how related to the three brothers. Anyway I'll check it out.
 
I read some mixed reviews of this one online, but I am definitely interested in seeing it... besides the trailers look good!
 
Very good movie, I was heart broken on what he had to do to the beatiful white horse.. do whatever it takes to survive I guess.
 
excellent movie excellent rlly loved it goes up there with some of my fav war movies
 
Just came back from the Theaters and I will tell you It is a must have for collection... At least for me. Searches really Deep in your heart...
Again if you love War Movies this one is a Must see/have.

Shows Lots of Character and Authority when you have to make a Decision to stay alive.
"Also shows how important it is not to question authority in front of those who you are Leading"
The climax could not have been better with lots of Action in the end flanking those with the MG42 and Taking all them out..."Intense"
I heard deep sigh's from many as we were leaving the theaters...
At times, the pacing of the film lags specially in intense Action.
This is a movie that is worth the price of the ticket.

Ooooo same director as "The Last Samurai"? I gotta see this then, I loved the last samurai.
 
I actually really liked it. I wasn't all that interested in seeing it at first, but I wanted to blow a day at the movies and this was the only one that sounded any good that I hadn't already seen and I'm kinda glad I went.
 
i watched it, i liked it because it showed what it was. the bad reviews because real life is not movie like.
 
The standard for resistance films is Gillo Pontecorvo's Battle of Algiers. For those that liked this you might want to see Battle of Algiers. Also, there is a Andrzej Wajda's Three War Films that are on the same theme.

One of the most influential political films in history, Gillo Pontecorvo’s The Battle of Algiers (La bataille d’Alger) vividly re-creates a key year in the tumultuous Algerian struggle for independence from the occupying French in the 1950s. As violence escalates on both sides, children shoot soldiers at point-blank range, women plant bombs in caf?s, and French soldiers resort to torture to break the will of the insurgents. Shot in the streets of Algiers in documentary style, the film is a case study in modern warfare, with its terrorist attacks and the brutal techniques used to combat them. The Criterion Collection is proud to present Gillo Pontecorvo’s tour de force—a film with astonishing relevance today.

At least it looks better than Valkyrie. I`ll most likely watch this one.
 
I saw the movie twice, in my house (unreleased DVD screener) and in theaters, and I have to say, I was impressed. The movie is good, worth the money or download time, whichever way you prefer. The action is satisfying, but there were 2 or 3 parts in the movie that kinda died, but in the end turned out great.

We are not here to talk about illegal activities such as warez / torrent etc.
