I read the book as a teenager but seeing it in live-action was brutal. You forget that soldiers used gas and fucking flamethrowers on people, and they did it so their ruling class can get even wealthier.
Remembering that the causes of that war were about European empires trying to carve up Germany because capital had reached its zenith under the pre-war status quo unless it acquired new markets and territories to expand into was just eye-opening.

Its fine, but it's largely a cute gimmick ("single" take) that's lit incredibly well. There's one scene that is absolutely jaw dropping from a technical perspective but it's mostly just war slop
