User Review - 10/10 by Joe SA very well made movie. I saw this in history class and my teacher, just to keep kids interested gave them a character from the battalion to follow through the course of the movie. I was the Polish guy.

User Review - 10/10 by Erin J"Mom always was telling me I needed some place to hang up my hat." This was such a great movie! Violent but sooooooo good! Great acting, and such a great story. It was great to learn about WW1 and this one battalion that lost like 300 men in a matter of days trying to survive was 24/7. It was violent but I guess thats war. It was really really good though.
