An incrediable war drama that has it all, romance, drama, action and amasing characters. A splendid, powerful, deeply moving and unforgettable movie. A bold, passionate, well-crafted and patriotic piece of Canadain film. Director and star, Paul Gross gives an honest, riveting and...( read more)
This a sweeping epic of love,courage and faith at the time of world war 1.Yes you may you seen it before but it the key players that keeps this from being just other pearl harbour! It is directed with such passion and fine detail that sweeps you in and then theres the intenes ba...( read more)
Great Canadian actor, great Canadian story, great moment in Canadian history... and yet, it failed to impress. It was formulaic and a little flat all in all, the love story was a little too predominant and the dialogue was awfully stagy. Melodrama in its worst incarnation. It was...( read more)
This is an amazing Canadian film. Gross did a great job at capturing what people went through during the time period. I think this film really showed that as a country, Canada really became a nation of its own. This movie is a treasure to Canadians and it makes me proud to be ...( read more)
Billed as Canada's great war movie, Passchendaele spends very little time focusing on the details of this war, but instead the repercussions of war and how it affects the principle characters.The first half the movie is set in Calgary, in the time of war. The second half transpo...( read more)
I regret watching this... Which is sad, cause I really like Paul Gross. And it had so much promise, then it spat in my face.
it seemed very short and some parts were gross bloody and disgusting david was cute and it thought he was going to die not michael very dad and depressing too sarah was pretty eww rat out of mouth seemed a little historically inaccurate compared to m y history textbook
Kind of rushed at some points, doesn't make sense in others, but overall good. Very beautiful.
This film was inspired by Gross's relationship with his grandfather. Like many veterans, he was reticent about sharing his experiences with his family. In a rare conversation on a fishing trip, Dunne told the story of bayonetting a young German soldier through the face and killin...( read more)
The war scenes are really well done in this movie. I think the movie looses something during the "at home" scenes of the film. It is nice to see a Canadian film made with a decent budget. Overall I can't quite recommend this film.
I went to see Passchendaele on a school trip and rather enjoyed it.
The war scenes were produced fantastically but it was quite a shame there were so few of them. Although the movie had a strong impact, it was weighed down a bit by all the drama and romance scenes.
I actually reviewed Passchendaele on EverHYPE and gave it a score of 73%.
