Movie Reviews of Company KMovie Review: One of the great anti-war films Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the great anti-war films, along with All's Quiet On The Western Front and Die Bruecke (The Bridge -- which is still not available on DVD). It has great acting from dozens of actors, without a single star in the cast. This is a powerful and poetic film, with beautiful photography -- many of the screen compositions are worthy of the great masters, Eisenstein, Dreyer, Hitchcock....
Company K consists entirely of vignettes, some of which are very short ... and unforgettable. It is commendably devoid of sentimentality, sensationalism, propagandistic jingoism, and the usual war-movie cliches. Some of the episodes are tragic and shocking: American soldiers are ordered to kill defenceless prisoners of war. A sleep-deprived soldier murders his superior officer. A decent soldier, the narrator, kills a friendly German. A piggish sergeant executes a young soldier -- who was not insubordinate, but simply too frightened to move.
The senseless carnage of World War I. The message of this film, and the novel it is based on, is that these things must never happen again. But they did happen again, and are happening now.
