Great movie. Saw it yesterday with my boys. I have never been to a movie where the sold out crowd sat through all of the credits and then filed out silently with no talking. It was that powerful.

“and then filed out silently with no talking.”

It wasn’t completely silent where I was. I heard a lot of sniffling.

I saw the movie Thursday night and the audience filed out in complete silence with a few tears still being shed.
It seems to be right down the middle. There anti war aspects to it..but those of us who have served in combat know it is hell.
I will go back and see it again when the crowds thin out..there were things I missed since my hearing is marginal. (too many outgoing rounds).

Ditto. I found myself unable to talk for at least 15 minutes after the movie.....I have NEVER experienced something like that before especially the crowd in complete silence leaving the movie theater.

Same thing when my daughter saw it and when I saw it in separate theaters.

No theme music at the time of the credits.

total packed house dead silent on the way out all the way through the concession area and out of the building.

Even the kids.

Most powerful ending of any movie I’ve ever seen
