To End All Wars Movie Review 2001

Based on Ernest Gordon's autobiographical 1962 novel "Through the Valley of the Kwai," bares the horrors that a group of WWII Allied soldiers suffered at the hands of their Japanese captors who torture the POWs during the erecting of the so-called "Railway of Death" in the nasty Burmese jungle. Related to events depicted in "The Bridge of the River Kwai" but not nearly so well imitated.
