The German offensive in December 1944 became the basis for this all-star Hollywood take on the Battle of the Bulge. Henry Fonda is an officer who predicts the assault, Robert Ryan and Dana Andrews are Army brass skeptical of his intuitions, and Robert Shaw (his hair dyed yellow and his eyes glinting with malice) is a German officer leading the tank attack. Shaw is certainly the most compelling thing about the film, especially in his philosophical debates with ambivalent underling Hans Christian Blech. Elsewhere, the movie jumps around to sidebar stories (cowardly James MacArthur becomes a leader, wheeler-dealer Telly Savalas falls in love) while messing around with the historical facts of the battle. There are interesting episodes, such as the Malmedy massacre of American POWs and the Germans' use of English-speaking spies, but overall Battle of the Bulge has the feeling of having been patched together from different scripts. On the physical level the movie comes up short, with the Spanish locations rarely suggesting the wintry misery of the battle, and the use of models and studio sets highly inadequate. A number of war films from this era are compelling on their own terms, but in the wake of Saving Private Ryan and Band of Brothers, this one looks antique. --Robert Horton

 Battle of the Bulge January 6, 2009
This is just a awsome movie. I wore out my video tape and was happy to find it on DVD. I would recomend this to any WW II movie buff.
Just gets better... December 13, 2008
I saw this movie as a young child and I've always liked it, one of my all time favorites actually. The clarity of this blu ray for a 40 year old movie is more then incredible. Every time I see it, it Just gets better and better!
 One of the Worst WWII Movies December 8, 2008

I agree with all the bad reviews. This is a terrible movie and does not honor those that won this battle. In the 80s I worked for a man that joined Patton's army on Dec 19th and was thrown into this battle and eventually wounded. He laughed about how far off from the actual conditions this movie is. Somone needs to do a remake of this along the lines of Band of Brothers. Save your money...
Oh So Bad! November 6, 2008

Well as a former US Army Tanker, I am writing this from that view. I had the privilege of serving with good soldiers, who on one occassion watched this movie together, as a company. The critisicm never ended.
I do like the actors in this movie, but the background, tactics and overall unit organizations shown in this picture, were pitiful. I can understand the equipment that had to be used to film this picture, but the dialogue could of been much more based on military reality. I feel that all the sides protrayed in this picture were not done proper justice. They were protrayed as a bunch of amatuers, fighting a war, like hollywood amatuers playing at war. This picture was put together like a bunch of pix up stix, that were put up half way and forgotten.
 Battle Of The Bulge, Blu Ray - The entire movie is fogged November 6, 2008
There had been others commenting on the "fogged picture". I believe the whole movie is fogged, may be due to light leaking on the camera during filming. Go to the "train in tunnel scene" on time line 1:37 and you can see clearly what seem like fogging on both side of the picture, more so on the left side. The amount of fogging that you see depends on the scene at the time. Scenes with high contrase or brightness tend to hide the fogging.
I also have the 2005 dvd version of the Bulge and it has the same fogging problem. I believe the problem is with the original master. So is there a good copy of the Bulge where a good Blu Ray can be produced? If not, can present computer technology clean up the fogging?
I enjoy the movie and the Blu Ray clearity. I am giving a 5 star rating for that. The 3 star is because of the fogging.
