I watched the movie Saints and Soldiers. The movie is about three American parachute jumping soldiers who got separated from their units in WW2. They meet up and find a French woman who has friends from the French Army who are captured by Germans. The soldiers decide to go and free the French. They find the group of French people and try to lead them out of harms way. They encounter many Germans through the movie and fight them all off. At the end they meet a group of Germans and try to fight them but there are just too many Germans for the three soldiers and the french to fight off. All of the soldiers get shot and two die but one lives and a German soldier finds the living soldier. He carries the American to a barn and helps him recover. They begin talking and realize how much they are alike. They both realize that they hate fighting and hate the war. While they're in the barn Americans come and find the two men but the German soldier is already dead. 

I really enjoyed this movie and I really liked how real they made the movie seem. It was very detailed and the graphics were done great. The beginning of the movie was a little slow but once they found the French group it got better. The ending was sad when Curtis died, but it made the viewer realize what it was like during that time. I would give this movie a 8 out of 10.
