The Trench (1999)
Short lived Rag
Ah! I thought this movie had more of Cillian, but not so. I feel that this movie would be just good as a play I see on stage. I do not really wanted to see another war movie. I know, I know war is sometimes unavoidable, but do old men start war and young men die in them? This movie answers that.
I can not believe that their life was so short, peaked at the ripe age, plucked away just soon as shaving cream are brushed on. All the while they tell you to look at the camera just be be shot away when you climbed that ladder. Cheer up! Cheer up! the booze are not kicking in, we are not better off dead. Why throw your youngster just to die and not have a better plan, the Bristish Army bloodiest war.

A twist that was not served
Wow, I have not been so scared by a mild mannered actor like this before. This movie is truly suspenseful. I wanted a version of Jack winning and the good girl losing, just to see what would happen if we actually are obedient to the bad guy. But was it so bad to make people do what you want so you can live and work as a hit man for another day?
It does look like it hurts to be stabbed in the throat and people expecting you to sit down while you are on the plane all the time. I wonder in another version if Jack could fall in love, turned good and helped her live through and let everyone walk away happy.
Overall the direction of the film is predictable but still keep you on of your toes but still let you walk away feeling a little short that Jack could not live on to be the classic Freddie or Jason.

Sad and Happy?
I finished watching this movie for the second time today. I find it was dark. I have never seen a movie that explores the feelings that a person might have after surviving a suicide. It makes me sad to see that "Johnathan" and "Rachel" went through but at the same time it gives me a feeling that the movie was not quite finished. What will happen to these two characters as they live on after their friend past away? Johnathan Jackson performed really well with an Irish accent. Maybe the ending leaves you open to feel like "yeah whatever." The movie did give some advice, and one of it is like " a person who survives a suicide might never tell you how they feel." But I think they will tell that feeling to someone they really trust.
