All Quiet on the Western Front (1930) - 4 stars

One sentence plot summary: War is Hell.


Starring: Lew Ayres, Louis Wolheim

Best of:
Epic battle sequence that holds up surprisingly well. Engaging artistic choices made by director Lewis Milestone.

Worst of: Streaky performance by lead actor Lew Ayres.

I would've liked it better if: I had cared more about the main character.
