Journey's End
The movie revolves around the First World war and the tension and fear that follows it. Depressed British soldiers, led by a disturbed officer, Stanhope, are waiting for their end as they have learned that a massive German attack is imminent.

It's like a handsomely constructed, old-fashioned item of furniture, the sort of well-crafted drama that's fallen out of favor but still captures your admiration.

What does a movie based on a 90-year-old play about World War I have to say to contemporary audiences? Plenty.

The actors are superb at impressing some humanity onto this ugliness.

The movie is very strong stuff, offering proof that Sherriff's play is unjustly neglected.

Gripping, myopic and brilliantly-acted, if a tad predictable as such WWI films inevitably are.

These performances dovetail nicely with Dibb's intention to keep us in the soldiers' headspace.

Lugubrious and anticlimactic, inadequate testimonial to those slaughtered in this pointless battle, and the million more who would die before the war's end.

What's more interesting about Journey's End is its detail.

There's a heavy-handed and dated feeling about this version of "Journey's End" - it never really breaks loose from its theatrical origin.

War is hell but we've seen that story before. Journey's End manages to reaffirm the message in a tale that is both harrowing and heartbreaking.

Its cerebral message boils down to a "war is hell" theme, a sentiment that's been conveyed more effectively in countless other works. It's a journey that mostly retraces steps.

The trenches are insane, but what awaits is worse.
