Ed Harris was amazing in his role as the German Aristocrat colonel who is the manger of sniper school in Berlin. On the contrary Jude Law was not the simple Russian farmer, he just was himself. Many realistic scenes add credit to the film like shooting the retreating Russian soldiers by their own colleagues, the aging sniper who has been tortured by the "comrades"and the omitted scene about the Soviet leadership. However, this film has been produced 10 years after the fall of the USSR! Good film with suspension.

 The secret of success in this poor screenplay film is that Julia Roberts was not acting...she was living her life may be with the extra burden of children.

Drama of love, war and patriotism. The film show a non-touristic view of the Sahara and its people as well as on the war and its tragedies. A real piece that was cut from life and edited to breathtaking film.

A poetic view of a man in his last day, difficult to understand at the beginning but soon you will enjoy it and feel what this man is suffering. I have another special interpretation of this film that has no place her.
