Besides being the true story of General George S. Patton during WWII, it is a tour de force of acting for George C. Scott.
You've never met a person like Patton. You come away in awe and inspired. However, as with many geniuses, his flaws are very manifest, bordering on insanity.
Hinted in the movie, it would have been a very different world if he had been a general in the Third Reich. I agree.

I still watch this movie years after it was released. You believe George C. Scott IS Patton when watching his masterful, brilliant performance. A classic, top-10 "war movie."
Cons: Reflects the gender stereotypes of WWII years. Women were nurses or housewives, not soldiers. Modern women who serve in the military might not like this movie.
