The truth of the movie is all in the trenches.

New York Times
Rating: 5/5 --
Though Westfront 1918's plot lacks the conventional pacing of the similar American production All Quiet on the Western Front, its narrative is thoroughly modernist as a breakdown of coherence and context.

Rating: 4/5 --
The thinking man's All Quiet on the Western Front. A coruscating portrait of the transcendent desolation caused by war.

Q Network Film Desk
Rating: 2.5/4 --
Rather than force common war story beats onto the characters, Pabst employs a more observational tone. His camera was free to move along the surface of the trenches, giving the full wide expanse of what the soldiers were experiencing.
