this film be one of three that be later combine by chapin into a compilation that be release to theater in the late 1950s under the title the chaplin review . this be an odd film in some way because later in life and chaplin be anti war and his movie stress peace and brotherhood . this film and in contrast and be a propaganda comedy meant to bolster the u effort in wwi . it truly odd to see charlie a the super soldier who single handedly capture 13 german and casually and coolly shoots several german in mere second a a marksman and then go behind enemy line to try to capture the kaiser himself . truly and this be a major departure for the little tramp and though it be and at the same time and very very entertaining and funny . the film be exceptionally well pace and well make and i be sure do a lot to bolster support at home for our troop ( too bad it be such a pointless and costly war ) .
