Apart from being technically impressive, the tracking shot for me showed war in one take. Desperation, patriotism, trying to find happiness in horrific situations, mutilation etc. etc. All that in one take? I like that. The director could have been showing off just for the sake of showing off but seeing as war is a major theme of the movie (and novel) I believe the tracking shot is more than that. Children of Men's tracking shot was CGI mostly, which put me off. Out of the three mentioned the Goodfellas one is my favorite though. I agree that the love story between Cecilia and Robbie should of had more basis and should have been more deeply explored. That's the major flaw of the movie.
