    Well. No so great. Another money grabber to people who think a war movie is going to honor veterans.

    You’d think with such a big budget they’d be able to afford another camera! Most movies cut back and forth with multiple camera angles. I don’t know if all these people giving these 5-stars reviews noticed, but this movie is all done in one shot. Obviously the director was too lazy to shoot scenes multiple times in order to get multiple angles. And too lazy to do any editing what so ever! How did no one at the oscars notice this? Clearly they don’t know much about movies. Also the Germans weren’t wearing the Nazi uniforms that they wore in World War II. Come on! Lack of research!

    Blockbuster. Production values off the chart. Surprising twists and turns.

    I really enjoyed this movie and I am not a huge fan of war movies. The story line and acting were very good. I I cried and it takes me a lot to cry in a movie so that goes to show how realistic the acting was. I stayed engaged the entire movie wondering what was going to happen next. I think it deserved best picture at the Golden Globes!

    Authentic in its scenes, especially of the trenches. I enjoyed it, especially when one sees what is on TV.

    Boring, silly, predictable and the settings were atrocious, the battle scenes typical ignorant Hollywooden liberal's idea of war. I barely made it to the end, then quickly deleted this POS off my hard drive.
