A terrific movie with a perfect performance from George C. Scott. Scott puts on one of my favorite performances in movie history. The movie doesnt have many battle sequences but I like that about the movie. The movie is supposed to be about Patton not about the war. I like how at some points they make it so the audience begins to get past his harsh side and then Patton does something to mess it up and make the audience hate him again. I especially like the opening scene where Patton gives that long speech.

This movie is just geniously put together and has top notch acting. Bruno Ganz who plays Hitler puts on one of the greatest performances I have ever seen. I had never heard of him and now after watching this movie I have become a big fan. Alexandra Maria Lara puts on a great performance alongside Ganz. Everyone was on top of their game in this film and I think it has to do with Ganz and his magnificant performance as Hitler. Words cant even say how brilliant I thought Ganz was. The Big Three performances in this film would most definatly without a doubt have to be Ganz,Lara and Berkel. Bruno Ganz's performance will go down as my favorite performance of all-time. Just brilliant I could ramble on forever but I will give out a few more props. Heino Ferch who plays Albert Speer was really good and gave depth to Ganz's Hitler. I would be a bad person if I didnt include Ulrich Matthes who played Joseph Goebbels he was just brilliant with his verbal dialouge along with his non-verbal dialouge. Juliane Kohler was also brilliant as Eva Braun. Great film that will be my all-time favorite forever.
