[Film] All quiet on the Western Front

[wuntbedruv]

Remake of the classic anti war film now on Netflix. Viewed as per the book from the WW1 German perspective and possibly the best made for Netflix film I have seen.

Anyone else seen it?

 

[Easy 10]

Its definitely on my list. Is it better than 1917 ?

 

[studio150]

Not yet, but added to my list to watch

Possibly more realistic, certainly more gory.Though dubbed from German, the dialogue is less stilted so I would say yes and considering I have made a career out of the armaments industry the anti war message is stronger.

 

[forumwayseagull]

worth watching definitely

Saw the original in the cinema a few months ago - still incredibly powerful.
Will definitely watch this - do you if it will be a cinema release too?

@Easy 10 Yes, I thought it was better than 1917.

It was a few weeks ago. Saw it then in my local arthouse and was duly struck and absorbed by it. Quite a watch.

Saw it at the cinema,it is a difficult watch. Came out of the cinema shell shocked (forgive the terminology). Superb film making. Should be up for oscars.

nein

Is it subtitled?

There is a little German and French dialogue that is subtitled but although shot in German the main dialogue is dubbed in English.

Is it subtitled?

A long time since I saw the original but it is the same anti war story told from a German infantry perspective. There is the usual liberties taken in re-writing the book for the screen as most of the story takes places in the trenches with the homelife element missing but a good telling of the story.

 

[CliveWalkerWingWizard]

It was subtitled at the cinema, there may be an option on Netflix?

That's just your Netflix settings surely. It's in German on mine.
