It veers from the book but it's a wonderful adaptation.

I had to go sit outside for a few minutes and collect myself after that scene. possibly the most powerful 5 minutes of cinema I’ve seen in my life

It’s a fantastic film, but is insanely depressing.

Uplifting, it is not.

Truly a display of man's inhumanity to man.

The first few minutes of Saving Private Ryan are as intense as they come.

The original won 2 Oscars. Slim chance for this one to do so

I am about halfway through and it’s a good WWI movie buts it strays so far from the book.

Glad you qualified what movie you were talking about by writing AQOTWF. It was necessary, at least to me, to clarify what movie you were commenting on in your post.

Excellent movie. Pretty depressing though. Must have been miserable conditions.

Watched it last night.

Excellent but quite depressing.

Definitely would recommend, but would not want to see it again.
