This was an odd one: a children's CG cartoon set in the WW1 trenches, which makes it that much more interesting. It is, of course, about a real American dog that fought in the WW1.
The movie is good and entertaining, and while the animation is good, it seems thin on 3D models as a lot of scenes have only characters that are necessary for the story. It's also thin in textures in some scenes making it look like they couldn't afford computers with stronger GPUs.
Surprisingly, it seems to me this is the only movie which portrays the American experience in the WW1 battlefield and trenches: how the soldiers arrived there, how the French soldiers welcomed them, and how they ultimately weighed down on the war.
There is that movie "Sgt York" but it has very few scenes in the war and trenches, from what I remember.
Also, it seems this movie has a cult following as it has a whole Wikipedia devoted to it.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
