斯大林格勒戰役中，瓦西里（裘德•洛 Jude Law 飾）是一個威震部隊的神槍手。他的好槍法百發百中，令敵人聞風喪膽。為了激勵士氣，樹立榜樣，瓦西里的戰友——蘇軍文宣部軍官丹尼洛夫（約瑟夫•費因斯 Joseph Fiennes 飾）在報紙上大量刊登瓦西里的英雄事跡，令瓦西里的形象更為高大。然而，坦妮婭（雷切爾•薇姿 Rachel Weisz 飾）的出現，讓瓦西里和丹尼洛夫都同時迷戀上了這個颯爽女兵。但塔妮婭喜歡的是瓦西里，這讓丹尼洛夫大為妒忌。另一方面，德軍派出了他們的狙擊手康尼（艾德•哈里斯 Ed Harris 飾），讓同是神槍手的他抗衡瓦西里。在硝煙彌漫的戰場上，瓦西里和康尼開始了斗智斗勇的決斗。.
