Added 11/1/2009
You mindless soldier better listen up. This general SOB takes no talk about being cowards. You better watch this video or he give you a right hook. It George Scott and he plays Patton. He hatesd Germans and Russian and espocally his own generals. He the poster boys why you never let someone like him playing with toy tanks. This is the best WWII movie and if you a WWII fan like me. This is your only understanding why we won WWII, buy this video it never gets old.

Patton The Movie
Added 9/28/2009
I am very pleased with the Movie Patton which I purchased on Amazon. Be sure if you order Patton that it is the movie you order and not the other DVD Patton. The Movie is the one with our American Flag with Patton Standing at Attention and Saluting. Truly a great movie. Bill KnapsPatton

Patton, the ww2 leader
Added 8/26/2009
The video depicts the personal faults of one of our greatest tacticians of World War 2. It is a wonder with the problems he had with his mouth that he got as far as he did. But I was left wondering what his aids contributed to his success. I once heard someone that served under him that when they saw the video, George Scott immediately reminded them of Patton.

"I love it. God help me I do love it so. I love it more than my life."

What a truly excellent film! I remember seeing 'Patton' some years ago and being struck by how great it was. The movie inspired me to read as much material on General George S. Patton as I could. Patton the man and the film our two of my favorite things.
George C. Scott really had the role of a lifetime here. He does not fumble the opportunity. He nails the part to perfection. One of the only differences between the two men was that Patton had a higher pitched voice. As his biographer Carlo D'Este once said, "Patton would have loved to have a voice like George C. Scott's." Scott's Patton is funny, mean, tough, fair, and moving. His portrayal of Patton's rage at the battle fatigued soldier is excellently played as is his stunned reaction at being put in the doghouse. His admission for his love of war over a smoking battlefield is a classic. Scott is great and he carries the picture. Karl Malden is a good foil for Patton as the legendary Omar Bradley. His Bradley seemed to me to be a little nicer than the actual Bradley was but it works for the movie. Oddly, Eisenhower is not depicted in the movie but his presence is felt throughout.
You are riveted by this film from the beginning to the end. The entrance of Scott at the opening of the movie is one of the great introductions to a movie character in all of cinema.
The DVD contains good picture and sound plus some interesting documentaries especially the 'History vs. Hollywood' that explains some of the creative licenses that were taken in the film.
Highly recommended!
