Very disappointing

Rating: 4/10 (26 January 2020)

1) It was so boring I wished I could leave halfway through. 2) The plot is very average. 3) There are tons of inaccurate or illogical things. For example, the whole premise of just two men carrying a crucial message is laughable. Then they have to cross enemy lines to meet their army again? How is that? Then they survive an explosion in the underground room, with no scars: that's impossibile. And so on and on and on. Terribly staged plot. 4) The cinematography is breathtaking, but you know what, that long shot (or should I say two shots, they were two shots) was boring and annoying. 5) The beautiful scenes, such as the shadows in the city. Again, am I watching a painting or a movie? This use of eye-candy strips all of the emotional involvement. Do you want me *into* the battle, or outside looking beautyful pictures? This is a critical and rather basic mistake. 6) Overall, this is an average movie with good looks and the huge minus of being utterly pretentious. Same as Dunkirk. I hate this millennial, hollow, falsely artistic style. It's a shame it's a nominee for the Best Movie award.
