I have been working in cinema production for some time so I know why everything seems to be filled with petrol - because it IS filled with petrol Kerosene - is the cheapest way to make a blowup. Our guys usually use it at TV-serial production which are beeing produced in zounds in our country. And viewers of such production (who are old grandmothers and housewives mostly) see no strange in funny cases when mortar shell explodes like a can with gasoline :rotfl:
As for Zvezda - it was shot with a budget much less than that of a "9-я рота" ( "9-th company" ). And as for me - main value of this film are not the battle scenes but characters.

Best Regards!

Gasoline or not, at least the Germans speak like real Germans, something which the Germans in 99.99% of all US war movies fail to do, including Saving Private Ryan and pretty much everything else.
