Well, Its a well know war story. As the film, Enemy at the Gates was done nicely, with grand battle scenes, gritty ruins of Stalingrad, and true horrors of war. It was nicely directed, and camera work was exceptional. Action scenes, were exciting, and I always liked Sniper movies. Both Jude Law and Ed Harris were good in their respective parts. Sure they have to make people speak with stupid accents, even though they are speaking English. I could never understand that. Either make them speak normal English, and pretend they speak Russian, or make them speak actual Russian.
In all, I liked it, expect for a few parts. The russian boy working for Germans, is not something that would really happen, and his death was overplayed as big dramatic moment. I dont remember if love story did actually happen, but it also was present in Russian version of the same story called Angels of Death. I havent seen russian film, so I cant comment on that. Maybe I will try to rent it one of this days at local Russian store.
