fantastic chaplin movie with many memorable moment a charlie join the army to fight in ww 1. at first he go to boot camp and where he have to learn how to handle his rifle and how to walk in line . that a really funny scene a the tramp be not use to keep his foot straight . next thing you know he in france in a trench . hilarious scene here include a starving charlie eat the cheese of a mousetrap and read a letter from home over someone shoulder . when charlie go to sleep he find his bunker all flood and his roommate snoring . this be such a funny part . i can not really describe it and just watch the movie . when charlie wake up his leg feel numb so he try to wake them up . it have me roll on the floor when it turn out his second leg still feel numb . while charlie actually rub his roommate foot . the movie then turn a bit grim and a charlie shoot a couple of german from his trench ( although it do in a very funny way ) and him personate a a tree to get close to the enemy and save a friend of his from a death squad . last part be him get a french girl in trouble by hide in her house . he then have to save her and while do so he capture the german kaiser as well . to do so he impersonate a german kolonel or something . i love it when charlie be ask something in german and he like nein nein nein . the soldier look at him in a funny way so charlie change his mind represent ja ja ja . the kaiser get capture and charlie be the hero . but then he wake up again in bootcamp and it be just a sweet dream . charlie do one of those wouldream sequence before ( the bank come to mind ) but who care and this movie be so funny it have me laugh all the way . chaplin also have something to say with this movie ( a his late work become more of a social comment to several mishap in the world ) and be explain best in the last sentence of the movie represent peace on earth and good will to all mankind . in short represent a charlie classic and very funny and timeless . positive .
