10/10
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm going to get straight to the point, you need to see this movie. Not only is it based on a true story, but it stays very close to what actually happened (granted, with some creative liberties). I was very pleased with this movie and have enjoyed seeing it multiple times.

Great movie for EPIC WAR FILM lovers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The film tells the story of the failure of Operation Market Garden during World War II. This is a very long and intense movie so plan to spend a few hours watching it. You need to pay close attention or you could easily get lost. It's the best of James Caan and Michael Caine and Sean Connery.

Excellent film
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This movie was done right except for a few mistakes. Germans didn't have a leopard 1 tank in ww2. And the germans actually speak German. This is a good movie to have in your collection.

Classic War Movie
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.In my opinion, the best war movie ever made -- a notch better than "Saving Private Ryan," which contains certain historical inaccuracies. "A Bridge Too Far" masterfully adapts Cornelius Ryan's meticulously-researched book of the same title. More importantly, with the exception of the German tanks and armored personnel carriers depicted in the failed attempt to capture the northern end of the Arnhem bridge, the uniforms, machine guns, rifles, tanks, landscape, etc. depicted in the film are accurate -- unlike the vast majority of war films that cut corners, film off location, fail to research key facts, etc. The "second Omaha Beach" crossing of the Waal River by the 504th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the 82nd Airborne Division -- filmed on loaction -- is the most riveting scene in the movie. Also spectacular is the reenactment of the dropping of hundreds of paratroopers over Holland from C-47 Dakotas. The only negative is that the movie can be quite confusing to one who is not familiar with the intricacies of Operation Market Garden. I urge anyone considering viewing the film to first read "Arnhem 1944" by Martin Middlebrook or Cornelius Ryan's above-mentioned book. Some research will help put this complicated military operation into perspective. After you've seen the movie, and if you have the time, money and inclination, take a battlefield tour of Nijmegen and Arnhem (both just an hour-or-so drive from Amsterdam) so you can truly appreciate the sacrifices made by the British, American, and Polish paratroopers depicted in the film nearly 55 years ago.
