Long boring movie.

Rating: Null/10 (5 August 1999)

The adaption doesn't work, sorry. Not for me. I love war movies and poetry, but it just doesn't work for me. I just stared at the screen waiting for the movie to end, but it just stretched on and on making you feel like your sitting in a poetry evening in some pub with lots of fat women reading love songs written ages ago.
And what's with the obligatory death scenes? Every second someone else get seriously hurt and he dies in his best friend hands. You don't really recognize the characters as well, they all look the same and act the same, so when they die you don't know what to think.
Oh well, at least the movie was indeed over eventually.
