•The movie shows guerilla warfare accurately, and the various ways a small group of people can successfully attack a larger group.
•The Wolverines are the main characters but they are NOT always shown as the Good Guys.
•The Soviet Union is the invading army but its soldiers are shown to be just regular human guys several times throughout the film.
•The movie is not your typical America-Is-the-Best war film. The Wolverines are not soldiers, they have not been trained, they don't make impassioned speeches about how they are the Good Guys and that America Is the Best.
•Several of the characters show signs of serious psychological trauma as the storyline progresses, one of them turning into a danger to his fellow Wolverines and another who by the end of his storyline finds his surviving the war to be impossible.
•6 OF THE 8 CHARACTERS DIE. WHICH SHOULD HAPPEN IN A WAR MOVIE.
