Eleven

Terrible acting even for a low budget film not worth watching and a disgrace to real events of WW1. Wasted my money.

Shocking, low budget, poor acting and all else that makes a film bad. They used good cameras and the bunkers looked good. That was it. Zero actual action. Bad, terrible acting. The story line had promise. The 8.9 rating sounded good. Boom. Purchased. Then saw only 20 reviews lol. My bad. Probably family and friends... That'll teach me

Eleven is a very moving film, showing the last few hours of World War 1. The fear felt by soldiers was well captured, as was the sense of comradeship. It was great to see such attention to historical and period detail in the sets and uniforms and the camera work was superb.

All the actors were excellent, with standout performances by Sean Cronin as Friedrich Muller and Jo Stone-Fewings as Captain Mullen. A special mention must also be made of the wounded French soldier, Jerome Bernard, played by the very talented Guillaume Rivaud, who so beautifully captured the look of thoughtful sorrow and acted with great compassion and feeling.

It was fitting to include the powerful 'soldier's prayer' at the beginning and one can easily imagine that many prayed such a prayer on the battlefields. It was a great shame therefore that the name of Jesus was taken in vain several times during the film.

All in all, this film was a well-made reminder of the horrors of World War 1 and the friendships that must have been made during that time.

We tried to watch this but when they fail to get the simple details right, for example British Servicemen NEVER salute without any headgear, yet a junior officer does this ten minutes in, my wife pointed out that he had holes in his tunic where his regimental badges should be.

Then the senior officer, taken directly from Blackadder goes forth, at least that was satire. The makers obviously thought no one under 40 would have seen Blackadder.

What could have been a good story was ruined, we gave up after 15 minutes.

Poor acting, over dramatized, crappy movie scene sets. Rifles sound like a child's cap gun from 1957. No storyline really. Generals depicted as crazed disturbed puppet masters. About as u realistic acting to the situation as possible. Poor taste in music...mismatched. a nurse breaks out in song and has a modern tone and vibrato, totally inappropriate to the time. Movie ends with a modern sappy song. Gives zero justice to the men and women that laid their lives on the line during g WWI.
