Mjeteconer Just perfect...

Konterr Brilliant and touching

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Paynbob 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.

trashcan-22 This is an excellent but hard to find trippy World War I spy thriller in the inimitable 60's Italian style. From the psychedelic graphics of the introductory credits and the great score by Ennio Morricone to the lesbian love scene with Capucine and the elaborately produced apocalyptic no man's land battle scenes with poison gas and German cavalry in full gas proof 'storm trooper' gear, this is a movie that should not be missed. It is a film that captures the horrors and cruelty of war and the ruthlessness of the players on and off the battlefield. Apart from the battle scenes, some of the production and special effects are primitive, apparently because the bulk of the budget for this movie was saved for the battle scenes, but for lovers of 60's cinema it should not be an issue. I first saw this movie on television many years ago and had the foresight to tape it on VHS. I still have the tape and enjoy watching it again from time to time.

milesmob I saw this at the theater in the early 1970's. The most memorable and scary scene is when the German army attacks with yellow cross mustard gas for the first time. The Germans and their horses are covered from head to toe (or hoof) with eerie protective suits. The experienced British soldiers don gas masks (only) and once again await the clouds of gas and the German attackers. The gas clouds move ever closer, finally enveloping the British defenders. The Germans move forward slowly menacingly in their scary looking garb. Suddenly a scream from the defenders... This gas is like no other that they have experienced before.... Now you will know why I have remembered this scene for the last 30+ years and still shiver, I think that you will too!

ferret-18 When people ask "what's the most memorable movie scene for you", this is the movie I remember. The mounted German soldier, he and horse in gas masks, emerging from the clouds of poisonous gas. Chilling and unforgettable. The rest of the movie was fascinating and enjoyable, but that scene stays with me. I saw it late one night on the tv and have always wanted to see it again.

gunneras I saw this movie in Valparaiso Chile in Spring 1970. My girlfriend persuaded me to see it over Hannibal Brookes, I am glad she did! This is a marvelous WWI movie. It has U-boat scenes, a German gas attack in the western front trenches, and a multitude of other thrills. I don't know why this movie isn't out on videotape. I'd sure like to see it again.
