Patton - 7 stars out of 10
"Patton" has been lauded as one of the most powerful military movies of all time (as reinforced by its 7 Academy Awards), and this should be entirely credited to George C. Scott. Though war films are not really my thing, I can appreciate the acting from Scott from his opening monologue to his final speech. This is an absolute tour de force performance. Unfortunately, this film tends to move at a snail's pace between battle scenes. Overall, I would never put this film in my favorites but Scott makes it worth watching.
