SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Marva It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

oodyrejid I have no doubt the book is one of the greats about the first world war, sadly this film doesn't do it justice. The episodic nature of the movie, while faithful to the style of the book, really doesn't work that well, preventing us from getting to really know the characters. The episodes we see tend to leave things unexplained, or leave us feeling we'd like to see or know more about what happened, and this results in the film being ultimately unsatisfying. The war itself, which was known by all protagonists as being fought in the most appallingly squalid, dirty, lice-ridden and horrific conditions, is shown here being fought in immaculately clean and neat trench systems that look like they have just been built in a B&Q depot, the corrugated iron sheets forming the trench sides are gleaming, pristine and new, the duck-boards and ground is neatly swept and tidy, and the men and their uniforms far too clean and smart to seem even remotely realistic. We are expected to believe that men are traumatised and mentally scarred for life by the conditions of war, and yet it all looks like it's set in a paintballing arena with no excess dirt or mud to be seen! It tries to be a good film, but somehow misses, and apart from the lead character, everyone else in the movie was just a cut-out character that you just couldn't feel anything for........ there really have been so many better movies on this subject that this one pales in comparison... sorry folks..

memzilla For this movie, my recommendation is to read the book. I have not, and do not discount the power which may have been conveyed by the original author who lived the experiences.But all credibility which this movie may have had, washed away for me because there was no dirt, no mud, no decay, no rats, no lice, no corpse stink, no depiction of the truly terrible conditions in which these people fought and slogged and died.All of the soldiers' kit was unblemished, unstained, unmuddied, looking like the producer did not want to risk the expense of getting it cleaned upon its return to the props department. The trenches looked like they had been built that afternoon.You want to tell an effective story with pictures, you have to make the pictures right, or the story doesn't get told.Go watch "All Quiet On The Western Front" for the quintessential depiction of World War I.

cobra_freak_006 OK i have to get this off my chest first of all to the people saying its the greatest war movie ever made. the movie itself i felt was poorly made. mostly because of the bad acting. the acting is pretty bad even for a Indi film. but besides the acting being bad it really isn't that bad of a movie. there's lots of action, the story is easy to follow, and the characters are even likable which is surprising by their acting. another plus is that it is a World War 1 movie. you hardly ever get to see or even hear about World War 1. this movie definitely got what war can do to a person mentally. this movie also is good for accuracy. overall if you can overlook the bad acting this is still a really good movie.

robertstephens1 Based on the novel by William March, Company K tells the story of Joe Delaney who is trying to write a book about his experiences during WWI. While writing about the others soldiers in his company, he remembers each of them through a specific incident that each was involved in. I was recently lucky enough to receive a preview disc of this film and I enjoyed it all, having been unsure what to expect after hearing that it was not a conventional war film. The film is not unconventional, however it is different in the way that it separates the different stories, using frames with each character name on to show who the following part of the story is focusing on. Although lacking the budget of major Hollywood releases, Company K contains many well-shot action sequences, which, combined with the scenes off the battle field create an interesting portrayal of the soldiers during the war. The most memorable moments include a plane attack, the shooting of prisoners and going over the top to find that the Germans aren't firing. Overall I found this an enjoyable film and is a must-see for fans of war films.
