The War Below plot

"Hope runs deep."

During World War I, Lieutenant Colonel John Norton-Griffiths hatches a daring plan to break the deadly stalemate of the Battle of Messines. He recruits a group of local miners to dig a tunnel under the no man's land, from the Allied trenches to those of the Germans. In this way they hope to detonate bombs from below the German line and thus save the Allied war effort.

Mediocre history lesson about a group of soldiers who are given an almost impossible task during the First World War and have to complete it in a limited time. The trenches form a prominent theme in The War Below and director JP Watts manages to portray the tunnels in a fairly claustrophobic way, but in the end there is little left of a real film experience. This can mainly be attributed to uninteresting characters, an ineffective arc of tension and fairly cheap-looking decoration. The relationship development is also not really convincing, but a number of war moments are convincingly portrayed and the second half looks tight. This is partly why this film wins a number of bonus points, but unfortunately it does not become very gripping all in all.
