Thông tin về bộ phim này

World War Two is drawing to a close. Furious and prolonged fighting is exhausting both the Soviet and the fascist troops. The more decisive the advance of the Soviet army, the more often White Tiger, a huge, indestructible fascist tank, appears in the battlefield. It relentlessly emerges from the smoke of combat, ruthlessly destroys the adversary and swiftly vanishes. No one can either verify or refute its existence. However, the Soviet military command decides to build an extraordinary tank – a special version of the T-34. The crew of this tank is headed by a man with a remarkable past, a tank crewman who was almost burnt alive in combat and doomed to death. Contrary to all expectations, he survives, recovers and returns to the ranks. He does not know his own name, he does not remember anything from his past, but he has acquired the unusual ability to understand the language of tanks. He is sure that the elusive fascist tank exists and must be destroyed, because White Tiger is the embodiment of war, its terror and its blood. The pursuit of the mystic monster begins. Who will win in this duel? Remaining true to documented events of the war and featuring historic personalities (Zhukov, Hitler, Keitel) the film director adds to the story elements of mysticism, enriching our understanding of the war to include the eternal struggle between Good and Evil.

The synopsis of the film that is given on most sites is extremely misleading to say the least. It seems as if this will be a war film, based on combat; mainly tank warfare. Don't get me wrong, there are some pretty awesome scenes, and as a WW2 historian myself, I like that they actually used real tanks instead of CG effects. The word "Fear" does not even to begin to describe the Tiger tank in the eyes of allied soldiers during the conflict. Although this film is based on a true story, people take the word "Based", and think it means actual fact. In this film, yes, it is based on a true story, in which WW2 happened, but other than that, the timeline is a little off, meaning Hitler had killed himself a week before the surrender documents were signed. This film definitely delivers on the psychological part though, and the struggle between man and self. If you are into rough and tough, authentic war movies, you may like it, but will most likely want to pass. But if you are into war stories and the effects war can play on one person, as well as an entire nation of countless lives as said in an epic final word from Hitler at the end. The producer captured him perfectly.

It was an ok movie not used to subtitles and some of the signing of the end of the war was a distraction from the movie. Amazing amount of Russian tanks, so used to the 3 to 4 at most used in American films.

Very dissapointed in the "Tiger" in this movie, it is a modified IS-2 hull, with a hand made Tiger Turret, Props for trying, and I understand the reasoning, but very dissapointed.
