Amazing new outlook of war!

Rating: 10/10 (16 January 2020)

I recently went to go and see this new film at the cinema and was very pleased with how Sam Mendez made me feel like I was actually present within the story as if I I was there in 1917 living the life of the soldiers. The way he's managed to do the film without any cuts scenes and being a continuous rolling shot of the film made you feel like you were constantly with Lance Corporal Schofield ( George Mackey ) throughout his journey of the story. Right from the beginning of the film your hooked on this emotional rollercoaster of a ride that you go though! Where it had me on the edge of my seat waiting to see what the next move was. Any giving you a look at the emotions that Lance Corporal Schofield was feeling During his journey. There were highs and low laughter and sadness and terrifying situations that you can only imagine what a soldier during that time went through, within even a short period as it is in the story but you can see how difficult and how much the soldiers went through even if it was a short timeline like the film. I was very pleased pleasantly surprised with all the surprise cameos within the film like Mark Strong, Benedict Cumberbatch, Colin firth and many more. And that you've got to see not just an inside look of the story of Schofield but the story of everyone else that is involved with his journey. This film is definitely a crowdpleaser and a must see film of 2020 and will definitely most likely be up there in one of the war films to remember along with saving private Ryan, Dunkirk and hacksaw ridge.
