Dresden (2-Disc Series) (2006)

http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Dresden_Disc_1/70085997?trkid=226870

"At a Dresden hospital in 1945, nurse Anna Mauth (Felicitas Woll) cares for badly injured British pilot Robert Newman (John Light), whom Anna believes to be a German deserter. As Allied forces close in, Anna grows close to Robert despite her engagement to Dr. Alexander Wenninger (Benjamin Sadler). The gripping historical romance won the 2006 German Television Award for Best Movie Made for Television."

"Other features:
Color; interactive menus; scene access; making-of featurette; Archival Military Newsreel of the Dresden Bombings."


The bombing scenes are really frightening. One element was the sounds added to the bombs leaving the bomb bays. The bombs sounded "heavy."



Mongol (2007)

http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Mongol/70075474?trkid=226870

"In the 12th century, an orphaned young slave named Temudjin (Tadanobu Asano) escapes from his captors and begins the journey that will lead him to become one of the greatest conquerors the world has ever known. Honglei Sun and Ying Bai co-star in this Oscar-nominated epic adventure from writer-director Sergei Bodrov, the first in a trilogy that spans the life story of Genghis Khan."


Genghis Khan .. the early years. A couple of good battle scenes with extra CGI blood as in "300." The last one battle is very Lord of the Rings.
