Ghosts of War

The wife and I watched this on Amazon Prime. While the ending could have been played out a little better, I felt like we enjoyed the movie.

Interesting movie with a good amount of action and mystery. Good story with lots to expect but falls a bit short overall. But its the ending which is memorable for all the wrong reasons.....basically there isn't one and would benefit from someone explaining it. Not a waste of time, but definitely unsatisfactory because of this.

As I started watching I just kept thinking why all the negative reviews, this is one of the best war/horror movies. Interesting premise, good acting, chilling atmosphere. I just loved it; but as the movie got to the end, it turned complete 180 & made a fool out of it's audience,the twist was just out of nowhere & completely ridiculous. It's as if the writer hated writing this movie & wanted it to fail. It would've been a fine supernatural horror movie if it stickied to what it started out with; but no, the writer had to subvert the audience expectation. He must've been thinking he was so brilliant to come up with this lame ending. God, what a disappointment, an hour and half down the toilet all because of the ending. A perfectly fine horror movie ruined because the writer had to write this stupid nonsensical ending. What a waste of time & talent.

So much promise in this film. Good acting, great setting and location, pretty much everything a quality film needs, just to fall off at the end.

Everything was looking good, the final "twist" was a little outrageous, though they lead up to it pretty well, littering little clues here and there, letting the audience know things weren't quite what they appeared. It just fell off short of any real resolution though, leaving the story open-ended.

Would have been a 8/10, but had to dock points for not properly finishing an otherwise good film.

Very much a film of two halves, a very good first half, and a pretty awful second half.

Early on, I loved the atmosphere, the implied threat, and the build up, it had a really eerie, uncomfortable feeling, and then.... The Soldiers take out a German platoon, and it all goes to pot. They took a really interesting ghost story, and stripped away its identity, a real shame, it was leading somewhere.

The clues were there, and at some point didn't somebody mention horror movies?

I applaud them for trying something different, had they stuck to the original course, it would have been an 8, you got to see how some o the soldiers behaved, and the harrowing events they must have witnessed.

Good at the start, shocking at the end, still worth a look, 6/10.
