they managed to turn a brilliant anti-war book into a ham-fisted hollywood flick with all the cliches.

it completely misses the point by a mile and ends up as a huge disappointment. such a shame.

Felt like an agony, you just want the pain to stop for the unlucky protagonists. In my opinion a good movie that hit the point.

When I started watching Hollywood movies, I could watch these boring war flicks, as they were new to me.
Now the novelty has worn off, I cannot see the same shit for 10th time.
My rating - 4/10

Very good, may have preferred the original. The CGI wasn't great and the music was a bit off-putting people felt

The impact of losing friends during the battle in a sudden, brutal and realistic way. What I liked the most about the movie is the war aspect. My body shivered many times while watching it, because you usually see in traditional war movies you often find plans, strategies, battles and heroic stances, but this movie is like (1917 movie at 2019). We live with simple soldiers in the battle. The movie tells us the details of the horrors of the battle experienced by every soldier.

The movie succeeded in demonizing wars and war leaders, and at the same time humanizing all the soldiers present in wars. 9/10

Not as good as the 1930 version, as this movie veers way off from the classic book.

Started incredible and steadily dropped off after the crater scene.

The boys signing up, getting their uniforms, first bomardment, the tank scene, and the crater were all fantastic and some of the more visceral and powerful war scenes I've seen. I really liked the parallel story with the diplomats as well, even if it took away from some of the POV rawness of the war.

After that the final hour starts getting a little ridiculous. Kat's story, the completely made up final charge, and Paul literally being the last casualty of World War 1 after an epic "Hollywood" fistfight was just too much.

First half is a 10, second half is maybe a 6.
