Stalingrad is a 2013 Russian war film directed by Fedor Bondarchuk, set in the fall of 1942 during the famous World War II battle of Stalingrad.Five Russian soldiers (Capt. Gromov, Chavanov, Nikiforov, Polyakov, and Sergey Astakhov) are dug into a blasted-out apartment building in the heart of Stalingrad, which they are defending from repeated assaults by a German unit led by Hauptmann Kahn (Thomas Kretschmann). The apartment building is home to Katya, a young Russian maiden who simply refuses to leave her apartment. Hauptmann Kahn, for that matter, has a Russian girlfriend named Masha who he is keeping in the bombed-out basement that he uses as a headquarters.Stalingrad received mixed reviews from critics but was Russia's most popular film of 2013. One of over a dozen films in which Thomas Kretschmann played a World War II German soldier, including a 1993 German production with the same title as this film. For a Western-made Soviet POV film on the battle, see Enemy at the Gates (which is also titled Stalingrad in some countries). | |

Friendly Sniper | |
| Stalingrad (2013) / int_12575a9f | comment |
Friendly Sniper: Chvanov, who is friendly enough when he isn't shooting his rifle. He teaches Katya how to shoot and walks her through plugging a German soldier in the chest. However, he doesn't hesitate to put a bullet through Masha's head. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything?: Chvanov teaching Katya how to shoot: he starts by telling her to lie down besides him, then Katya grabs without hesitation his huge rifle and after just one shot she goes from being an innocent creature to being a killer. | |

| Stalingrad (2013) / int_1dd14f5a | comment |
I Surrender, Suckers: Nikiforov, captured by Kahn, goes meekly to the German HQ, where he reveals that he speaks German and will cooperate with the interrogation. When Kahn's CO comes over to ask him questions, Nikiforov pulls a knife and stabs him in the gut several times before the other Germans shoot him to death. | |

Framing Device: A seemingly unnecessary one set in the ruins of the 2011 Japanese earthquake, in which a Russian aid worker tells a German civilian trapped under rubble the story of his "five fathers" and his mother Katya in the ruins of Stalingrad. | |

Rule of Drama | |
| Stalingrad (2013) / int_a5f0752f | comment |
Rule of Drama: Like 9th Company (by the same guy), the film has been criticized by some Russians for taking historical liberties. So much that there was even a petition to boycott the movie in Russia. Considering that the movie was released only a few months after Company of Heroes 2 (which is banned in Russia), this is hardly ever surprising. The petition went nowhere, and the film went on to become one of the highest-grossing movies in Russia in 2013. | |

Roaring Rampage of Revenge: After witnessing innocent civilians getting cremated alive, Gromov snipes the offending flamethrower infantry, runs into the stairwell firing his gun wildly into the air all while furiously ordering his men to rush outside and kill every German soldier they see. A brief firefight ensues, quickly turning into an all-out brawl, knives, shovels and all. Hauptmann later delivers one back to the Russians after Chvanov shoots Masha in the head. | |
