Este film de Jean Renoir me parece un intento fallido, o nada contundente, de críticar la sinrazón de la Primera Guerra Mundial. Eso en cuanto al trasfondo. Los actores intentan transmitir melancolía y desasosiego, con poco éxito, en unas condiciones carcelarias para nada verosímiles en el contexto que se mueve la película.

Por lo que toca al guión y realización, clásico pero excelente.

Puestos a dar una mirada crítica a la 1ª Guerra Mundial, prefiero sin ningún género de duda "Sin novedad en el frente".
