Here is my reaction to the winner of the WW1 movie poll!  I watched this in German with English subtitles on Netflix.

I learned that this was Felix Kammerer's film debut!! (he played Paul)  I love how caring Kat was to the newbies, and it's actually very scary that they enlisted but had no training 😨

Very well made movie and atmospheric.  

Reminder that you need your own copy of the movie to watchalong, and that there is an extension that allows you to do Picture-in-Picture in case you are interested: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/picture-in-picture-extens/hkgfoiooedgoejojocmhlaklaeopbecg?hl=en

FULL LENGTH REACTION | All Quiet on the Western Front (2022) [2023]

Reminder that you need your own copy of the movie to watch along with me since this is solely my reaction. The video is there so you can have an idea when the scene changes in case you need to sync up, but it is HEAVILY blurred so I don't have any copyright issues. Enjoy!!

"Most expensive German Netflix movie" means that this was produced by Netflix for Netflix in German, as opposed to being a theatrical or TV release from some other studio. Netflix produced movies and series are noted by the Netflix "N" logo on the thumbnails.

I had not seen this version before. Aside from character names and a few small incidents, it is completely different from the book and the 1930 and 1979 versions. Personally I would rate this as the least of the three. If you are looking for something close to the book try one of the other 2 versions, especially the 1930 B&W one.

The attacks on the morning of Nov. 11 really happened. Even worse than shown here, a lot of British commanders went ahead with previously scheduled attacks because the ceasefire orders did not include canceling scheduled attacks. And worse than that, there were a lot of hastily improvised attacks when informed of the ceasefire so that they would "have the honor" of capturing the section of the line that they had been fighting over for years instead of waiting until 11 am and then walking over and occupying it peacefully. British/Commonwealth forces suffered 11,000 killed on the morning of the 11th in these attacks. After the war, Parliament and the Government covered up the attacks to avoid a scandal. There are 2 documentaries from 2004 and 2008, both titled "The Last Day of WW1" that examine this. British soldiers involved in these attacks did not know that there was a scheduled ceasefire because their commanders did not tell them.

After the war, 1919 saw the Spanish Flu pandemic, which killed 20 million worldwide, more than died in WW1. After that came the Russian Civil War 1919-1922. All of the WW1 Allies sent expeditionary forces to Russia to help the "Whites": both Tzarists and Republicans against the Bolshevik "Reds".

Uniforms and telling who is who: German uniforms in both WW1 and WW2 were "Feldgrau", a slightly greenish tinged grey. French and Belgian uniforms were "Horizon Blue", French a little lighter and Belgian a little darker. British uniforms were "Khaki Sage", a dull brownish-green, more green than the British WW2 uniforms. American uniforms were "Olive Drab", the same color as US WW2 uniforms. Russian uniforms were "Earth Brown", similar to the ones in WW2. Helmets were quite distinctive in style, so you can tell by the helmet silhouette even of the uniform is covered in mud. French and Belgian helmets were very similar. British and American helmets were similar, the American design being based on the British design.

I got that afterwards. This is why I shouldn't record reactions at night, my brain tends to shut off 😂

I feel like if anything, I would be more tempted to read the book to see the actual events just to get a real account of what happened. Afterwards, the other movies could be good to watch

That is absolutely infuriating. That is so many deaths for nothing, and even worse is the cover ups!

I definitely only noticed the green/blue uniform difference. Other than that, I would have no idea. For some reason these kinds of details are things I always miss in movies

You should be able to see the difference between British/ Commonwealth Khaki and US Olive Drab when you watch "A Bridge Too Far" because there will be some scenes where they are next to each other. Once you have seen them next to each other, you will be able to recognize them separately. In "A Bridge Too far" you will also see 4 different types of German uniforms: Heer (regular army) and Waffen SS both wear the same Feldgrau grey, but are easy to tell apart by 2 things. 1) the patches on their collars: regular army has 2 bars on each collar point, while the Waffen SS has black squares with "SS" on the right collar point and rank pips on the left collar point. 2) Waffen SS have a stylized eagle on the left sleeve at the upper arm instead of the red armband worn by the regular (non-Waffen) SS. The other 2 uniforms are for Panzer troops: tank crews and crews of armored vehicles. Both regular army and Waffen SS panzer troops wear black uniforms instead of grey. They are distinguished from each other by the same collar insignia and arm eagle as non-panzer troops, plus regular army panzer troops have pink service branch piping or edging on various badges, like their epaulettes. Regular army generals have red patches with gold embroidered leaf clusters on their collars in place of the bars on other officers and enlisted men. Waffen SS generals have silver leaf clusters on both collar points.

Good movies told "from the other side": - "Das Boot" (1981) German U-boats in WW2. Fictional story, but very accurately portrays life and operations on a U-boat. There are several versions available: 149 min theatrical release, 209 min Director's cut, and 293 min German TV version. I recommend the middle length "Director's Cut" - "Letters From Iwo Jima" (2007) The WW2 Pacific Battle of Iwo Jima from the Japanese side. Part of a matched pair with "Flags of Our Fathers" (2007) released together. Both directed by Clint Eastwood. - "Gettysburg" (1993) 1863 Battle of Gettysburg (ACW) giving equal time to both sides. All star ensemble cast. Based on the book "The Killer Angels" by historian Michael Shaara. Filmed on location at Gettysburg Battlefield National Park. Originally 271 min, there is a shorter 248 min version and an extended 300 min version. The 271 original or 300 min extended versions are best. - "Shining Through" (1992) Fictional story of late WW2 espionage set in 1945 Berlin. Filmed on location in the former East Berlin just after German reunification in 1991, where the Soviets had forbidden reconstruction by the East German government for the last 45 years, the ruined buildings are real and in the same condition that they were in May 1945. - "Valkyrie" (2008) 1945 plot by German officers to assassinate Hitler. There is a German language movie about the same incident from 2004 called alternatively "Stauffenberg" or "Operation Valkyrie" - "The Desert Fox" (1951) US film about Field Marshall Erwin Rommel. Rommel's widow was a technical advisor. Quite complementary of Rommel for being made so soon after the war. - "Rommel" (2012) German language movie about Field Marshall Erwin Rommel - "The Hunley" (1999) Story of the CSS Hunley, the world's first successful submarine. Deployed by the Confederates during the ACW. - "Gods and Generals" (2003) US Civil War focusing on Confederate General Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson. Prequel to the 1993 "Gettysburg". Both based on books by historian Michael Shaara. Very long movie; in the theater it had a 5-min intermission for a restroom break. IMO "Gettysburg" and "The Hunley" are both a better watch than "Gods And Generals".

The beginning of WW1: - "The Kings Man" (2021) prequel to "Kingsman: The Secret Service" and "Kingsman: The Golden Circle". Fictional story, but the scenes showing the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand are pretty accurate, aside from the presence of the movie's fictional main characters. The 1890's scenes showing British forces imprisoning South African Boers in concentration camps are also accurate.

I honestly did not know there are SO many war movies. It's really impressive. I feel like it would be interesting to see someone react to them all in chronological order (and do them by wars)

I'm not sure I would say this is from the Germans perspective so much as the soldiers perspective.

Definitely from the soldiers' perspective, but great to see that it could be either side and still have the same sentiments
