Paths of Glory Ratings & Reviews

  • Rowan KrzysiakFebruary 12, 2025
    An analysis of the bravery, cowardice, hypocrisy, beuracracy and utter farce of WW1 trench warfare. The fact it does what it does in less than 90 minutes is absolutely remarkable. Whole-heartedly recommended.
  • AngusMcNutzDecember 23, 2024
    Much more compelling than I expected, Kirk Douglas' melodrama notwithstanding. If you've ever held contempt for any form of management, this movie will resonate with at least some part of you.
