Review – All Quiet on the Western Front (2022)

I’ve seen three or four screen adaptations of Erich Maria Remarque’s famous war-is-hell novel, but this is the first actual German production of the tale I’ve seen. So “war-is-hell” and “German” double down rather than cancelling out in the depression department. Gallows humor and brutally realistic depictions of trench warfare manage to sustain most of the running time. Worth seeing
