My thoughts on “Wounds”, I think I’ll start with the cons first [/b] [li]The German uniforms were somewhat inaccurate. The M35 helmet used by the Afrikakorps was brown, not green. Patches and ranks were missing on the American uniforms. [/li][li]Also, though I admit I’m not to sure about this, but I believe Churchill did know about the SAS. [/li][li]The whole part where the JU87 pilot gets shot down by a guy with an M1 Garand looks more like a tall tale than a real WWII story. It’s also unlikely that a Stuka would strafe individual soldiers. [/li][li]Also, the part where the P38 blows up the tank looks like it came straight out of “Saving Private Ryan.” I thought it could have been more original. What was good…[/li][li]The story was good. Even the love story was good (no smooching, no “teenage melodrama,” just the straightforward feelings that Sgt Ben has but never gets to tell) which gave it a lot of originality. [/li][li]The dialogue was great “She doesn’t give a d**n if live or die in this war, I can’t wait to leave”-“well I can.” That was an Oscar scene! [/li][li]The characters were great, the SAS guy was cool, and the acting was decent, especially from the main 3 guys. The chick was kind of hot. [/li][li]The scenery was pretty good too. [/li][li]And I really liked the music. BTW, can anybody tell me what that song was that plays right before the battle at the end starts? Thanks. [/li][/ul]

I thought the uniforms looked great. Then again I don't know everything about WWII...

BTW, can anybody tell me what that song was that plays right before the battle at the end starts? Thanks. The music right before the battle is from Kingdom of Heaven. They're actually two different songs but they've got the same melody and they were combined for Wounds of Sand. The first one is called Crusaders and the second one is called Battle of Kerak.You can listen to them here Crusaders www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztdWUUnDLHUBattle of Kerak (this is actually an mv someone did to Narnia, but still the same music) www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VEvuq77nQk

The part where that music is...just as he loads the gun...that I thought was like the best parts of the movie.

Hey, I really enjoyed the film! Nice screenplay, some memorable lines... some work to be done of course, also in the execution, but overall a very good attempt. Keep up the good work!
