Enema at the Gates

Rating: 5/10 (15 January 2002)

Hmmmm. Character-based War film. Cool snipers. Jude Law. Rachel Weisz. Good film, you'd think, right? Because I did. Boy was I disappointed.
I have never seen such a boring war film. I think Law is a brilliant actor, but he was terrible in this film, as was most of the cast. The accents were posh British and really stupid - I would not have minded a less obvious accent, even if it wasn't Russian. Characters' actions were completely unjustified and the dialogue was awful. And the ending in no way justified the tension between the 2 snipers.
No, EATG is a bad BAD film, badly written, badly directed, and badly acted. Must do better next time, Jude.
