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


I got Covid 2 days after Halloween. I watched the first 40 minutes of it while off work. I couldn't get through anymore of it because I already felt like shite and didn't need to feel depressed as well.

You know that guy everyone suggests hates everything...The Critical Drinker? Yeah, he loved it and recommended it.

He should read the board and remember he's supposed to hate everything.

Didn't feel like a movie to me because I had 2 uncles involved in Overlord. One in the landing and one in the 101st. Both survived, but both came home as alcoholics. Guess that's how PTSD was handled back then.

The flamethrower scene is something else.

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

My sentiments exactly. Beautifully shot.

The word “cutlery” has a changed connotation for me now. Cannot use.

You're probably unintentionally right.

Watched this last night.

It wasn't as depressing as expected. Good film, though.

Yea I liked it. I didn’t find it disturbing or horrifying like most people seem to think. Good movie that portrays war to be as awful and tragic as it really is

Violence and gore just don’t disturb me. Hell even Cannibal Holocaust didn’t bother me but maybe I’m just not right in the head
