A truly epic war film. Despite it being quite long, it keeps a decent pace, and didn’t seem to drag out.
I have my standard war film complaint: too many characters that I end up not being able to distinguish, especially when they’re covered in dirt and so on. But I think that actually somewhat works in its favour in this case? The cast is SO broad that it doesn’t really matter if you can only follow a couple of them, it just lends more to the chaotic tension.
