Encumbered by logs they pressed on.

Rating: 6/10 (17 January 2020)

I didn't know logs and trees were such a problem in WW1. A fallen log was used as a plot device at least 3 times, maybe more.
I went for the novelty of seen the single 2 hour tracking shot, you can clearly see the "tricks" used to accomplish this illusion. It just ended up being a distraction to the story. Those who say the cinematography was great, I guess. They failed to give any scale to the battlefield, they needed to pull back and show us the world. Most of us don't know what WW1 looked like. My wife said it felt like we were watching someone play a video game. And she's right. When the main character was shot by the incompetent German sniper, Someone In the theater even said "game over!" Unrealistic?Two men caught in a huge explosion in a tunnel, one is literally buried under what looked like at least 1 pound of rock, stones dirt, and rubble, emerges with little more than dusty eyes. And which point he wants to go back. I'm not sure why, he is clearly immortal and a super human marksman. When he locates and shoots a German sniper that is in an elevated covered position who is firing on him. I guess he could have got lucky and lucky he is. Bullets cannot seem to hit him. Except the one that hits him in the back of the head. But that is cured by a French woman with a fat starving baby when she touches it with a rag. Then of course Germans are all evil, stupid, drunk and immoral. Even when they save a German pilot from burning alive he repays them by stabbing the best character in the gut. Because Germans have no honor, never did, especially the pilots. There are so many stories that have gone untold about WW1 they choose a fetch delivery quest to an NPC that looks like Benidict Cucumberpatch.
