Paul gross did a great job at this movie, with 20 million, We need to show the world what canadains did in the wars more offen, and how it affected the home frount too.
appositely horrible
While it may not be a 100% accurate depiction, the fact that it was made to begin with is a big plus in my mind. This was an important point in the early history of Canada, if you look at the number of troops that a young country sent (voluntary or not) to WWI it's staggering. I digress from the movie, but read Pierre Berton's book "Marching As to War: Canada's Turbulent Years" to get a better picture. As for the film, it's a touching tribute to the people that sacrificed everything for their country, while some people complain it's too romantic or trite they're missing the point: it's supposed to be a vignette of what went on during that period. It's ambitious and cannot satisfy everyon
Unnecessary profanity and a redundant romance take away from what could have been a good movie. It is the military aspect that is important - - the rest just takes away from the program.
Bloody briliant. We need to look at our own History more often. Most Canadians unfortunatly succumb to the propoganda machine of our Southern niebours. Remember the only Army the the Germans feared in both wars, was the Canadians. Read,learn and watch about Canadian History, IT IS INTERESTING. Well Done Mr Gross.
Trite.
Terrible Movie!
Great effort. Here's hoping Paul Gross learned some things with this one, and will move to a better film going forward.
what a bad movie!! My Great Grandfather Fought In Passchendaele and he would say this is incorrect!
Horrible writing. The dialogue was cliched and unoriginal. I was very disappointed ~ I had high hopes for this Canadian production.
