Review of Beaufort (2007) by Jennifer B — 28 Jan 2010
This is a well-acted and engaging film. The cinematography was quite good and the characters felt realistic enough. However, there are a couple of problems. The first problem is that you know who the next victim is because (spoiler) that person is involved in a discussion about their home/background.
Once they have had this conversation they get killed. The second problem is that it has the cliches that surround the 'my comrade is dead' situation that exists within a whole bunch of war films (but not all war films).
The long pauses, the crying, etc. The final scene of the film tries to be emotional but in a very slow way and it just misfires. Overall, it is a film worth watching.
