Nail-Biting, Intense Experience

Rating: 9/10 (8 January 2020)

I got to see this film for a second time tonight, and it was even better than the first time. This film is a technical marvel. Roger Deakins is the greatest cinematographer to ever live, and he should win an Oscar once more for this film. I don't agree that the story and characters were surface level. I thought the acting was great and very underrated. I thought they were a step above most war films and because of that this made for one of the best war films I've ever seen. The cinematography combined with the score made for one of the most emotional and nail biting experiences of the year. It's not my favorite or the best out of the Best Drama nominations at the Golden Globes, but it definitely deserved the win as well as Best Director. It's one of the best films of the year, it opens wide this Thursday, go see it as soon as possible.
