A true testament to what filmmaking is all about. You can't truly appreciate this film until you watch the special features and realize how dedicated the actors were to their artform...and how dedicated and visual Werner Herzog is. Werner Herzog is the manliest director i've ever seen.....he was willing to try all of the dangerous things the actors were going to do before the actors had to do them.

Also, Christian Bale eats a live snake....and he eats maggots....plus every main actor in this film lost MASSIVE amounts of weight, been though they weren't asked to, to play their roles as POW's.

That is dedication...and that's the real reason this movie gets such a high rating.
