Honest Depiction Of The Brutality Of War

Rating: 10/10 (11 February 2018)

Filmed by Elem KLimov in 1985, Come And See remains of The most brutally honest, chilling, deeply disturbing, awfully realistic war epics depicting the massacre of Belarus village by Nazi soldiers, along with all the civilians in a barn. What makes it even more brutal and shocking is that fact that the whole film is shown as if throught the eyes of a young boy Flyora, a partisan, who witnesses unbearable wanton brutality, survives and becomes deeply traumatized by this.
This is a very timeless film which sends one message - War is all evil, it is never fun or funride. It is woe, weeping, wildness and blood.
