Summary: A Woman's View of A Complicated Man
Review: Patton played by George Scott pleased me. The depth and complicated nature of Patton came through, frame by frame. Patton's love of pomp and poetry, his passion for war, his vulnerability to the disapproval of people he admired, his vulnerability to his own desire for fame, his doubts and depressions, his appreciation of his dog Willie, who never lived up to his namesake William the Conquerer--all these layers of character were tastefully portrayed in a film that is action and color and adventure and drama of the highest caliber. Patton's real life family approved of this movie, after fighting having a movie made of his life for over twenty years! I like my young sons to watch and study this video as they do. It encourages them to appreciate the layers of character a great man can have.

Summary: A true tribute for America's Genius for War
Review: Since the creation of the great American nation, every war has produced its heros. Perhaps, the greatest hero to America would be General Patton. In Geroge C. Scott's portrail of the General, he is able to capture the essence of the fallen hero. Throughout Patton's life he was misunderstood, maligned, and often ignored. A prime example of his superior's treachery would be Patton's slapping incident. The DVD version of the movie gives an audio essay which explains the situation in great detail. In my opinion every true American should both appreciate andunderstand the movie. It presents a man who's own foresight caused his demise.

Summary: For sheer animal magnetism, Patton was the man!
Review: World War II produced a long array of military stars, i.e. MacArthur, Eisenhower, Bradley, Clark, Nimitz, Montgomery, Rommel, etc. But for sheer animal magnetism and bravado, none could overshadow Gen. George Patton. What endeared Gen. Patton to his troops was his willingless to expose himself to the line of enemy fire, unlike other "office generals". That he pushed his troops almost beyond the limit of human endurance is without question. But that could be excused by his belief that aggressiveness in the battlefield saves more human lives in the long run and hastens the end of the war. George Scott's portrayal of Gen. Patton was of monumental proportion, it was an actor in his element. From the general's gentle side and diplomatic tact when he was in his best behavior to his thunderous, manic explosion when he was at the height of his fury, Scott got it all! No one could have done a better job portraying the unpredictable, egoistical, brilliant general. The realistic recreation of battle scenes and the accurate depiction of war characters, like Gen. Omar Bradley and others, make this film a must for historians and history buffs alike, and put this film in the list of best war movies ever made. The only irony of it all is, Gen. George Patton, a true warrior in the tradition of the samurai, had to die in a "non-warrior" way - - - a paralyzed and pitiful figure in a hospital after a car accident when the war was practically over.

Summary: GREAT MOVIE: fascinating enigma
Review: Patton was probably the BEST soldier to ever serve this country. Geo. Scott portrayed Patton very realistically, and you almost believe he IS Patton, and not an actor playing a part. I would like to know if Scott believes in reincarnation like Patton did, or if his portrayal WAS just great acting? What was Patton's dog called, and WHAT breed was it? I watch this movie as often as I can, sometimes staying up all night so I don't miss it. ( my girlfriend doesn't like the movie for that reason)she doesn't mind too much really. It is a GREAT MOVIE, but I would like to see someone make a movie about his education and earlier life. are almost he IS Patton, not an actor. I would like to know if Scott believed in reincarnation like Patton did? I watch this movie as often as I can.

Summary: One of the best movies of all time!
Review: Scott and Malden are brilliant as two WW2 Generals . Scott captures the very essence of Patton: rebellious, strong, stubborn, but mostly, a millitary genius!

Summary: Patton
Review: This movie was an excellent representation of the man the Germans hated, and the Allies despised. George C. Scott gave a stellar performance, and could pass as Patton if given the opportunity. Definately worth the maney to buy for anyone who loves World War II movies, or is a history buff of the era.

Summary: First title I can't see on my DVD
Review: Well, was bound to happen, can't view this on my computer. First title its happened. Time to buy the Toshiba 3109 home player. Great movie, first couple of chapters I could view got me going. One of my favorite movies of all time, and actually the first non Sci Fi title I've purchased. BTW, MGA really has to get their act together. Their titles always seem to create the most problems.

Summary: One of the best war movies ever!
Review: Seven Academy Awards! Should have had even more. One of the finest films of leadership in war ever filmed, it is up there on my list of favorites right beside The Triumph and the Glory and The Bridges of Toko-Ri. George C. Scott was perfect for the role.
