War movies are almost always tragic. It's sort of a trademark of the brand — war always results in thousands of lives lost, after all. It's normal to expect tragedy while going into a war movie, but sometimes, filmmakers turn the emotions up to 11 and put out some really disturbing features that audiences will not regret watching but certainly will not enjoy either.
Furthermore, during a pre-screening event, one German veteran even spoke up to attest that he fought on the Eastern Front, where the film takes place, and that the movie shows nothing but the cold, hard truth. Its brutality is unmatched in other WWII films, and while it is a superb film, it's not one that most viewers will ever want to watch again.
Release Date September 11, 2015 Director Cary Fukunaga Cast Abraham Attah , Emmanuel Affadzi , Ricky Adelayitor , Andrew Adote , Vera Nyarkoah Antwi , Ama Abebrese Runtime 133 minutes Writers Cary Fukunaga , Uzodinma Iweala 8 'When the Wind Blows' Conflict: Unnamed Fictional War When the Wind Blows follows an elderly couple living in the English countryside that is left floundering after the world is thrown head-first into a nuclear war.
It's yet another movie that shows the level of evil and destruction caused by Nazi Germany, especially in the neighboring country of Poland. Beyond that, The Pianist is about a father and a husband's helplessness as he tries to find any way possible to contact his family but can only wait and pray as the situation begins to get worse and worse. It's a horrible, oppressive feeling, and even if audiences have never experienced it before, they will through Szpilman.
5 'Threads' Conflict: Unnamed Fictional War Threads comes as a movie that is less sad than it is extremely shocking. Portraying survivors in Sheffield, England, as the world gets itself into a nuclear war, the movie is filled with some of the most visceral and brutally realistic visuals ever committed to film. Some of these moments provide a hefty dose of the morbid reality of nuclear warfare, resulting in a war movie that crosses into the horror genre.
The story is about the British evacuation of Dunkirk after France's surrender to Nazi Germany, leaving hundreds of British troops stranded on France's northern shore, just across the English Channel from their island homes. Unfortunately, the Reich is not far behind and attacks the evacuation as it is underway. The soundtrack is expertly crafted and infused with a ticking clock sound effect, subtly depicting the urgency of the British troops as the vise begins to close around them.
