It is very good, but kind of what you expect from a good Russian director - the war theme is one of the most important in the Soviet cinema, and they made many good films, usually with no artificiality so common in the Western war films... I guess if you keep doing something then you are bound to eventually become good at it. :) Even their propaganda-laden ones often speak the truth... with some exceptions.
They also made quite a few lighthearted war comedies, but I doubt these would show well here, they are too deeply rooted in the popular culture of that period - mainly their stars.
