REVIEWS

Review by Dave Meloche (posted on 26-Mar-2005)

I remember old "blood & Guts" from WWII and he was always my "hero".

The movie traces his taking command of the Army in Africa, after the debacle of Kasserine Pass, where the German General Erwin Rommel convincingly beat the American Army in the first encounter between the Allied troops and the Wermacht.

The movie is a rather accurate portrayal of Patton by George C. Scott.

Scott did such a convincing portrayal of Patton, I cannot conceive another actor playing that role with any of George's credibility.

If you are a Patton fan, you owe it to yourself to watch this movie.
