Incredibly well made war drama.

Rating: 8/10 (10 March 2020)

Well, this was a very different war movie! Much of the film works only because of the stunning camera work and cinematography, and great acting by Dean-Charles Chapman. The film has a great production design and hauntingly beautiful score. It is also visually stunning. There's a scene where he wanders through the ruins of a city, being lit only by bombs going off in the distance - and it is an absolutely beautiful, mesmerizing scene. '1917' is filled with spectacular scenes.
This is one of those rare movies I can't really fault in any way, although it probably won't go down as one of my favorite films. Every scene was done to perfection and the film flows effortlessly and beautifully. I only have praise for this film.
'1917' is a moving drama about friendship, loyalty and determination against all odds.
