Review of All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) by Sickboy0138 — 30 Oct 2022
I have been watching and reading all quiet on the Western front for around 30 years. This new show is exactly what you're expecting from Netflix. It looks pretty and the visuals are really great. The acting isn't bad but they have poor diolauge and only the man who plays Kat does a great job and is relatable in anyway.
Instead of conveying suffering and anti war messeges it's just a gore fest. Nothing else. The original in the 1930s is much better as you connect with the characters and get emotionally connected to them.
.the new one I didn't care at all. It's extremely unrealistic as well in regards to war. It's basically a modern Hollywood war movie and they got rid of all the compelling aspects of the book and original.
Worth a watch but it's not memorable or really engaging.
