A good movie

First of all, it's rather amazing that, after 70 years, they don't have exhausted yet the subject and they still can make such movies about WWII. Indeed, even though it wasn’t really original, it was really solid, it wasn't missing much to be really amazing and, in my opinion, it might be actually better than 'Inglourious Basterds', the other WWII feature starring Brad Pitt killing a lot of nazis. Basically, what I enjoyed the most is how raw and dark the war was depicted. Indeed, it was pretty much hell and you can see that, within one single day, their youngest recruit would be probably traumatized for the rest of his life. Furthermore, the cast was really good and I was especially impressed by Shia LaBeouf, one of the actors with the lousiest reputation nowadays, as he was able to give so much emotion such by staring at someone. Eventually, what really prevented this movie to completely work for me was the fact that, during the last act, it became a badass action-packed war feature which wasn't really a bad thing but I preferred when they were focusing more on the psychological impact of this horror. Also, the other thing that slightly bothered was the fact that David Ayer made pretty much the same mistake he made in 'Training Day' which was to introduce someone new to this world and, within a day, to make him experience too many thing. At least, it did work better here than in 'Training Day' which I always found ridiculous because of that ridiculously tight time frame.  Anyway, to conclude, even if it was maybe not a masterpiece, it was still one of the best WWII features I have seen for a very long time and it is definitely worth a look.
