"We reap what we sow"

A rare German war film that avoids cliché. Der Tiger is not Hollywood spectacle, not action-driven, and not a Tarantino-style exercise in irony. It feels realistic, tense, and very human without drifting into sentimentality. The tank sequences have the same claustrophobic dread as Das Boot, and the few combat sequences are short, well shot, but not central theme of the movie.What impressed me most: the film explores heroism in war, how it appears in the moment, and what remains once the illusion is stripped away. It does this in ways you might not expect, and never through cheap graphic shortcuts. Atrocities are shown without exploitation: the horror is undeniable, but the film trusts imagination more than on direct visualization.That restraint is what I valued most. Instead of shocking for effect, it relies on strong acting and storytelling to make its points.If you go in expecting a German perspective of Band of Brothers, Private Ryan or Fury you'll likely be disappointed. This isn't an action movie, but a psychological war film that stayed with me long after the credits. My 7/10 immediately after the cinema easily turned into an 8+ the next day.The end is unique. It works, but every word more would be a massive spoiler, so I'll leave it there. Most audiences for war movie will like the first 90+ minutes; the ending is yours to explore, to like or to dislike. It's unlike anything I've seen in this genre.Highly recommended if you want a war film with well-shot tank sequences, moral depth, good atmosphere and that never prioritizes the graphic display of events over storytelling and acting.

Do not expect Fury or Saving Private Ryan

Der Tiger (The Tiger or The Tank) was one of the movies that I was looking forward to watching, and I was finally able to watch it thanks to Amazon Prime. I can assure you that this movie is not one of the war movies in which there is extensive action, such as in the cases of Fury, Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, Masters of the Air, or The Pacific. This movie explores the ethics of war, questioning the distinction between an order and a decision. Do you have to follow all the orders? Do you have to follow them even if they are absolutely horrible? On the other hand, there is a deeper meaning related to karma. What we reap is what we sow. As they always say, do not do the things that you do not want to happen to you. This is the main idea. Do not watch this movie if you have no interest in these topics.

Very unexpected ending

I liked the movie, it was great and pretty unexpected. I was surprised how it ended. Shows the immense mental pressure a soldier bares in wars.I liked how they protrayed the war and it gives you those chills of world war two.The tanks are well displayed and I loved the scene of the river.I gotta say, the acting of the acters was VERY good!!
