I watch all 3 movies adaptations an this was the worst of the bunch, by far.

They basically skip the beginning which takes away a lot from the build up, and story. And a lot of the other scenes were re-written by someone that obviously never experienced such things (the original story was written by a WW1 vet, someone that has live it).

Example >!The kid catching up and shooting the soldier in the woods, that whole scene is wrong. Why was dude peeing so deep in the woods, away from his buddy? How did the young boy keep up with 2 seasoned vets running for their life? How did that same young boy sneak up on a solider dead silent so quickly? etc. etc.!<

In the original Movie >!The same soldier is hit by shrapnel as they walked down the road. Then while being carried to the hospital he is hit by shrapnel again in the head!<

Plus the use of that dah-DAH-dah sound effect was over used and rather annoying.
