Plot summary

A group of German infantrymen of the First World War live out their lives in the trenches of France. They find brief entertainment and relief in a village behind the lines, but primarily terror fills their lives as the attacks on and from the French army ebb and flow. One of the men, Karl, goes home on leave only to discover the degradation forced on his family by wartime poverty. He returns to the lines in time to face an enormous attack by French tanks.

It was okay. I wish there was a dub in English. It wasn't interesting enough to have to read subtitles.

For a 1930's German War film Westfront 1918

For a 1930's German War film Westfront 1918 is very impressive. What few battles scenes there are, they're very impressive. While there isn't much a storyline throughout, and kind of just bounces around from scene to scene with these German soldiers you get a sense of what they've went through and how just brutal and devastating WWI was.

Another great WWI film! Considering its age it's

Another great WWI film! Considering its age it's absolutely incredible how well this film brings war cruelty in the trenches on the screen. Like fellow WWI film All Quiet on the Western Front (with whom it shares many more similarities) it only shows personal impacts on the soldiers and not whole sceneries (like the Omaha Beach in Saving Private Ryan) which makes it even more affecting. The use of explosions, smoke, sound and blood is well orchestrated and the black and white gives the film a natural bleakness. The war scenes in Westfront were even better than the ones in the US Best Picture winner. It wasn't quite as devastating as AQOTWF though. The story evolves around four infanterists (rather three because one of them is merely a side character) who have to face difficult situations in the trenches as well as in their personal life. You don't really get to know them very good and you don't even learn their full names but you can see what horrible experiences they gain.
