Review of The Trench (1999) by John P — 08 Dec 2015
I find the low viewer ratings for this movie absolutely unreal n, as it is one of the 2 or three best WW 1 films I have ever seen , If one is genuinely fascinated with the war and the era...or at least has a strong interest.
...this movie speaks volumes . There are no love scenes , no gratuitous violence ( although plenty of relevant violence ) , no effort to make 1916 morals and speech appear more like our own . This is simply a spot on , accurate portrayal of what WW 1 was really like , much as Band of Brothers was for WW 2 .
In short , I have never seen a better war movie .
