My wife and I went Saturday afternoon. A very realistic and gripping film. The cinematography was very realistic and the battle scenes were not over done . I have a great interest in everything WWI. My father fought in the war with C company 353rd Infantry,89th Infantry Division and was gassed in the Bois de Bantheville ,France in October 1918. He then developed pneumonia but luckily for me he survived the war and returned home in August of 1919. He married my mother in 1941 who was 18 years his junior and they had 4 children,myself being the youngest born in 1955! He passed away in 1960,one month before my 5th birthday.Here is a study done by the Army on Gas Warfare In WWI and the 89th Division in particular.

Took my father-in-law to see it. Very well made film.

Any movie that comes out that does not have a female lead shoehorned into a male role should get bonus points. I was entertained, no need to nitpick, yeah he had a hollywierd magazine but so what, and about gas, this was a 12 hour or less movie, gas was not a constant thing.

Saw it this weekend. While I agree that's it not something I'll watch multiple times like "Saving Private Ryan" or "Band of Brothers", it was still a very good movie. Very intense and the continuous shots do a fantastic job of building and heightening the intensity. The cinematography made the horror of what it must've been like for the guys at the front very real. It's too bad that WWI didn't receive as much attention while the vets were still alive as did WWII.
