Today I when into my local book store and saw a DVD on top of some old books call "Talvisota". I bought for $4.99 cause it looked like a war movie (which I like). I looked it up on this website. Apparently, this is a very good film. Also, my version is (which is foreign) is a much longer film than the one listed on this website. The one on this website is 125 minutes (2 hours) were as my copy says on the back that it is 3 hours and 11 minutes long. So apparently there are 2 copies of this film available.

This is an above the average war movie, several kilometers (or miles) ahead of hollywoodland movies. Above all, it deals with the Finnish-Russian war during Second World War, a rather unknown chapter in that war. Outstanding work of acting overall. Very realistic. I have to admit though that 45 bucks is too much to ask, so I wish someone would soon provide a second edition of this film with some extras about Finnish directors or about historical facts that surrounded this movie.

Military historians can appreciate the effort that went into this film too. From the basic Swedish Mausers of the Finnish reservists, lack of uniforms, WW1 Chauchat light MGs to the Soviet infantry carrying Mosent Naugants in their ... Read More

Everyone else has pretty much discussed the storyline -- I'll just be brief and say that this film is incredibly well-done. It's conveyed (in Finnish) with ENGLISH SUBTITLES but they're easy to read and a good translation -- nothing goofy. "The Winter War" is one of those films that leaves Hollywood so far behind that it's really pathetic. These war scenes and action look REAL and there's no focus on aggrandizing particular actors like one has to endure with Hollywood flicks. The cinematography is second to ... Read More

This film is a fitting tribute to the "Talvisota." I have a personal connection - my father was among those on the front lines, those that the movie depicts. He was one of TWO men to survive from his unit, and while he didn't like to speak of the war, the movie was extremely accurate from the accounts my father did share. As for the ending, I noted one of the reviewers didn't "get it." My dad said that one day they were shooting at each other, and the next they were fishing together. So, yes, the brutal combat ...
