Excellent movie which was well done. true to what I think life was like for the soldiers and which left me emotionally drained. Only the second movie I have seen where the audience applauded at the end, and then sat through almost all the credits.
amazing, sickening, passionate, exhilhirating, hurtful, triumphant, heartache, resolute, reflectful, is just a taste of the rollercoaster ride you will have with this film. Paul Gross has raised the bar to incredible heights for canadian films.
Excellent movie most enjoyable
I wanted to like Passchendaele, and some parts were truly excellent. Other parts were not so good. The cinematography was spectacular, the artillary scenes are absolutely terrifying and re-define shell shock for modern audiences. And the overall story is very good. However, the dialog is uninspiring, the love story part is poorly done and takes up far too much time. And worst of all, the Jesus-carrying-the-cross symbolism at the end was so hackneyed, so improbable, so irrelevant to the story, and so cheesy that it nearly ruins the rest of the film all by itself.
I was overwhelmed by the movie. The effort that Paul Gross put into this movie is nothing short of extrodinary and it made me proud to be a Canadian!!!
Excellant movie. The freedom that we enjoy today came with a huge price. Salute to all those veterans and soldiers who died/fought for us in WW1&2 so that we can enjoy the freedom of today. We have to fight for what we believe even at the cost of our lifes. Love does not mean SEX but with a promise and committment. Paul kept his promise of saving her brother and sacrified his life for it. The rule is "Don't die". Love=Sacrifice=Commitment to love till death do us apart. We should be proud to be a Canadian. "Very well done and Superbly made Film. Well Done Paul Gross
Excellant Movie. The Romance fit all the girls and the cruelty of wars were fully expressed in the film. The ultimate price of keeping his promise to save her rebellious brother is to sacrify his life. He came back to the war because of Love: what a marvellous word
This is the best movie i have seen in a long time, Makes you stop and think about what they went through back then,
Masterful. This film is at least 3 stars ahead of anything Hollywood has done in the last year.
Great Canadian movie about Canadians at war. Maybe it will help so many so called Canadians wake up and relize that Freedom isn't free and show support for our troops who have and are doing their duty for this GREAT Country, Canada
