I know it's a masterpiece but I can't follow whose who, I can't engage with anyone and I've no idea whose annoyed with who or why. I like battle scenes but that's it.

I'm gutted cos I loooooveeee BoB and Masters of the Air and like the pacific. But it's a chore watching this

I agree with you. For me it also had a lot to do with the subject matter. I just couldn't be bothered to care about a bunch of fascist jarheads and maybe one or two of them were "sad" about killing children.

I did slog through it and I at least appreciated that in the end it made a point that the warcrimes they were committing were not just swept under the rug but encouraged through the use of promotions and punishments if not in written policy.
