it was alright as a WW1 movie, but it's not completely 1 to 1 true to the book

Does it matter if its good? The old movie is excellent and certainly better. This thing has no reason to exist.

The first one is still one of the best movies of all time. It never reaches those levels.

But this remake is much, much better than the TV movie remake. And it does enough to distinguish it from the original film. Overall a pretty good movie

Its decent. Doesnt look quite as nice as, say, 1917, but it gets the job done in terms of cinematography. Doesnt follow the source material as closely as some other adaptations but I dont think that hurts it.

Definitely worth a watch.

I dont know, I feel like having a German production, doing it in German, is a different enough take that it warrants the right to exist.

I will watch it regardless.
I'm a huge fan of the novel and both of the films.
My user name in Verdun, Tannenburg and Izone are Alls Quite.

Also, I want the German Language challenge.

1917 is a must-watch as well.
