The combat scenes in particular appear surprisingly realistic given that this film is about ninety years old. The film otherwise is of its era, but some of the scenes are quite imaginative in their shooting and setting. Depicting the war from the German side was a real innovation in 1930 and American war films tended to dwell on glory, but this film does the opposite.

A great anti war film. Amazing to think it was made nearly 90 years ago.

More than 80 years old but this old film is a truly memorable fine classic. The action sequences are gripping. The tragic waste of human life is portrayed without sentimentality. One not to miss.
