Watched this 4 part series from Russian TV made in 2004. Takes place in 1944 near the Polish border and pits a cat and mouse game between a German sniper team and a Russian recon unit with their own woman sniper Olga. I like how they portrayed life in the Russian army and that Communist SMERSH officers again as in Penal Battalion are unforgiving monsters. link Thought the 1st episode set it up well but the 2nd the English subtitles stopped only a few minutes in. The 3rd was good but while the woman is a good professional there is a love interest who is a goofball and in reality would have gotten her killed. The ending was disappointing in the final battle is more tv than realism. But all in all was watchable. |
