Movie Review

Rating: Null/10 (19 June 2004)

"No Man's Land" is a brilliant war movie, combining tragedy and wit with a virtuosity that successfully holds the audiences through the 91 minutes of this great film! I cannot think of a better and more obvious way of expressing the futility of the conflict. I absolutely adored the conversations of the two soldiers trapped in 'No Man's Land', and how they just failed to see beyond 'Who started the war?' The satire in 'Who holds the gun dictates the terms' was hilarious. The setup, with the soldier trapped on a bouncing mine, is both deeply tragic and immensely comic at the same time. UN (non)-intervention in the entire issue, and the insidious role of the media couldn't be better portrayed.
