General Broulard: "Colonel Dax, you're a disappointment to me. You've spoiled the keenness of your mind by wallowing in sentimentality. You really did want to save those men, and you were not angling for Mireau's command. You are an idealist - and I pity you as I would the village idiot. We're fighting a war, Dax, a war that we've got to win. Those men didn't fight, so they were shot. You bring ch... read more

I had the privilege to see this flick on the big screen but since it was already 15 years ago, a re-watch was really needed. And I wasn't disappointed. Indeed, back then, I was pretty impressed but the second time around, I was really blown away. The whole thing is just so shocking, heartbreaking and downright revolting. In my opinion, it is easily the best movie starring Kirk Douglas and one of t... read more

Great Kubrick war film but not as good as FMJ...

This is a fantastic war film which is very underrated. This is a film about World War I which is the first film that I have seen about that. People seem to make more films about World War II because it was probably darker. This film showed both the similarity and difference between World Wars I and II.

The futility and irony of the war in the trenches in WWI is shown as a unit commander in the French army must deal with the mutiny of his men and a glory-seeking general after part of his force falls back under fire in an impossible attack.

"7.4 new War is a mess and superiors sucks. After this I rewatched Generation Kill once again, good modern tv series about same themes."

"Katsottu 21.2.2013 Sanotaan, että sodassa täytyy pitää hengestään kiinni kaikin keinoin. Kun itse ei kuole ehtii samalla tappaa enemmän muita. Kun kolme sotilasta joutuu mahdottoman hyökkäysyrityksen jälkeen perääntymään - säilyttääkseen henkikultansa - he joutuvat sotaoikeuteen pelkuruudesta syytettynä. Tuomiona on teloitus. Sodan kylmää ironiaa. Kubrickin Paths of Glory ei ole niinkään kritiikki itse sodasta, vaan instituutiosta sodan takana. Elokuva kritisoi armeijan jÃ"
