After enduring this for 2 hours.....and noticing 40 minutes left, I was left numb at the contemplation that I had still had a fair way to go before it was finished.
I was so tempted to just turn it off.
The voice overs were pretentious and left me thinking that the writers must think we are idiots to believe that all this poetic nonsense is what was going through the minds of these young men in the perils of war.
Garbage, utter rubbish...if people think they are intelligent by rating this movie as a 10, I think the entire opposite. This is not high up on any rating board, to put it in the same league as movies like Shawshank is criminal. Get real people and give fair reviews.
If you manage to read this review before you watch the movie....just be warned it is 10% action, 10% dialogue, 40% poetic voice over, 40% dull and boring, maybe more. My wife fell asleep twice!
If you can cope with that, then watch the film.
If not then go and re-watch something like Band of Brothers!
10 out of 10 .....seriously? I get fed up of over the top reviews that water down real classics and big up 2nd rate movies.
I mean is this really as good as Toy Story? Not even sure it was as good as 'Inside Out'. Please think about this when rating movies. A score of 10 should be reserved for something special....and this wasn't it. It was just okay.
Not convinced it had enough appeal to younger children either, my granddaughter definitely got bored.
Firstly, I don't believe people should give such high reviews when they haven't seen the full series.
Secondly, I wish people would give realistic reviews....so many 10 out of 10s, wow, is this really the best show some people have seen, even without the ending there are so many better out there.
As for the series, it is slow to start off and the jumping from past to present is a little confusing. The acting is reasonable, but the story is just one dimensional and pretends to be more than it is. I kept watching expecting a twist or something less predictable for a finish, but this didn't happen! Very flat, perhaps worth watching for some, but not for me!
