Rating: 3.0
Needed more elaborating
Not a horribly bad movie. It did have real good aspects but i felt it needed a little more.The good things:-The love story. Not too common, the language barrier was an interesting aspect and no happy ending like most.-Realistic. Its not like those movies where everyone survives. Theres realistic deaths and only a couple of the characters make it to the end.-Variety. The different nationalities of the characters is good. Of course, it is World War I, so it was expected, but interesting nonetheless.The bad things:-Nothing very concrete. I'm still undecided about this being good or bad. You get only a tiny bit of information on the characters. Theres really no indication of their strengths and weaknesses. Probably because there are so many characters that they dont focus on but one or two.-Repeated plot. Its not a thorough war movie that concentrates on one incidence or place. Its just about them going up in the air several times, taking them down and coming back.-No climax. Its not really a movie in which it builds up to anything. The plot is just continuous, so theres really no high point.Overall, its an ok movie. Its good for someone that doesnt like concentration on main characters and a war plot that doesnt narrow in on one incident.
