Brilliant work, but some "Bond" scenes aren't quite convincing.

Rating: 8/10 (21 January 2020)

Brilliant directing from Sam Mendes and outstanding Cinematography by Roger Deakins, but I gotta give this movie a solid 8 because some scenes felt very much like "James Bond" scenes and not quite convincing for a World War I movie. But It makes sense though, it's the director of the Bond movies here, so that's why. And to cut to the most important and the most unconvincing part: The Letter. He goes through all that trouble at the waterfall and the waters and at the end the letter is not destroyed not a little bit and even the writing paint should have been disfigured after all that trouble at the waterfall. That scene ruined the realistic part of the movie.
