A lot of freepers have already seen this movie in the limited releases in the US. I believe it will be at theaters again later this month. I find it interesting how movies about the UK experience in World War I and II have found audiences in the states. Dunkirk did very well in the US.

I saw this previewed yesterday while at the movies......but the two ‘showing’ dates had already passed!

It was stunning. The work that Jackson and his team did was just remarkable.

Screw the oscars. Let them chose who they want, who cares? If the movie is good, go see it, or better yet, buy the DVD at Walmart when it hits the bargain bin. I have no intention of spending full price for any movie.

When is it going into general release? It played on the 27th and all the venues were sold out.

Jackson made chop suey outta LOTR. Good films, missing half the book though with 50% made up filler.

XLNT movie,

The Man in the Trenches.

I have seen this movie and it is an amazing technical achievement that gives meaning and substance to the British and colonial soldiers who fought and died in WWI. My one criticism is that while it chronologically details the lives of soldiers as they move from enlistment, training and placement in the trenches, it does so without context in terms of times, dates and places.

When you see this movie, and hear the kids looking and pointing at the camera, and telling each other, "Hey! Look...", it's a step into a time machine...

It makes you hope Jackson fulfills the promise, he hinted at, that it was a WORLD war, and that there are millions of feet of unseen film in the archives...

Jackson is more suited to this than adapting (modern) myth. He understands concrete history; he does not understand abstract mythology.

I have yet to see this. I did see Dunkirk, and thought it was atrociously done, both artistically and historically.

I like Christopher Nolan as a director, so I went in predisposed to like it. I know WWII history well.

Just purchased my ticket for the January 21 showing.
