“I found the film interesting from beginning to end, even during the filmu0026#39;s quieter moments. It added great depth and emotion to the overall morbid war theme. (when is a war film ever not morbid themed?). The film also had very likable characters, both as protagonists and antagonists, with the exception of William Milleru0026#39;s character, Conde de Lorencez, who became annoyingly repetitive in his actions and quite bland, actually.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt really is a pity about the shaky camerawork, especially during the climatic battle scene. It sometimes makes one loose focus of what is actually happening. Nevertheless, it was a very good film.”
