To make something so blunt in 1957 is an achievement in itself.

Rating: 10/10 (3 March 2010)

This movie could be summarised in three words: "Kubricks first masterpiece". this movie deserve 10 stars just for having been made in 1957. this movie is an blunt depicting of war and a direct attack at the potential fascism in a government. The war scenes are extremely authentic, and really shows us the horror of the so called "trench war". the movie is both moving and provocative. Trust me you will be moved by the last scene, I sure did. if you're a Kubrick fan you must see this film. this is the one that literally put him on the map. Then again I advice any one to see this film. You just cannot miss this one. It would be a crime to give this any less than a 10/10.
