    If you've seen a Bruno Dumont film before or even if you haven't it all gets real old real fast.

    With razor-sharp precision, Dumont interweaves scenes of battle with the unravelling of a young woman back home, involved with two of the soldiers. But this is not bleakness just for the sake of it. When it arrives, the ray of hope rings perfectly true for being so devoid of artifice.
  2. Pretentious to the core and lacking any context or credible characterizations.

    A somber, beautifully acted reflection on the barbarity of war and the bestiality of man.
