Deathwatch (2002)
7/10
Realistic Handling of Firearms
18 July 2005
I would have preferred "The Bunker" and "Deathwatch" as straight historical pieces, devoid of horror; but I seldom get my wish.

I am pleased to see directors depicting firearms more realistically than ever before. I am so tired of the never-emptying "John Wayne" submachine gun or ANY automatic weapon never emptying and the characters NEVER carrying ammunition loads.

Goodness gracious! The characters in "Dog Soldiers" actually stop to recheck ammunition on hand. The experienced soldier in "The Bunker" actually tells the Volkssturm youth to "fire short bursts".

With a few errors the attention to detail in "Deathwatch" is marvellous and meticulous.
