Too long.

Rating: 5/10 (16 June 2001)

What an extremely long movie. I agree with some of the comments that this movie could definitely have been shortened. I really enjoyed the last two hours. The action scenes were terrific and intensive. I could imagine myself in these scenes of destruction, completely at the hands of God- whether you survived or not was mostly to do with luck. The first hour however was unneccesary. The film has to constantly switch between the romance story to the war story. The love story was very sentimental and corny. Surely, this could have been developed alot more quickly. But overall, I found the movie thought provoking and I left the cinema feeling as though I had learnt something about the war.
