2. it's more a poem than a movie (final Spitfire scene...),
3. you do not even know the name of the main hero (if there is one...),
4. there are NO German soldiers in the movie. Enemy is like a phantom menace.
5. air scenes are the most realistic from what I have seen so far (however there are "spanish made "Me 109s, like in "Battle of Britain".
6. shell shock behaviours are perfectly filmed.
7. no flying body parts, no "over screen" blood splashes.
8. the soundtrack is somehow annoying, but really good and interesting (Zimmer). Rather hard to enjoy without the movie (I really tried...).
9. My favourite scene? The one on a train station and the Englishman outside the carriage window.
Hats off.
