Bland, bad, boring and stupid. Hype is a lie.

Rating: 1/10 (12 January 2020)

It is unfathomable that this movie gets such high ratings. Mind-B-O-G-G-L-I-N-G.
I don't know where to start..(no particular order) The Geman pilot that just crashed managed to stab Blake while Schofield rushes to find water for the hurt pilot. In WW1 pilot's where men of honour and they would 1. Just not do such a thing, and 2. it's idiotic that a weakened haf burned pilot finds the strength for it. The town is levelled, but the church tower is stil intact. Bot only is it intact, but apparently there is someone there to sound the church bell at 5 am? Really? Just before the woman in the basmeent appeared I thought: "soon he finds a woman", and bingo. And yes, she cares for a baby that is not her's without any further context. And yes, Blake is the only soldier in WW1 to have carried milk in his canteen. What Luck for this baby! And so unexpected!
The river he jumps in to suddenly turns into a wild stream? Really? In otherwise flat scenery there's not only a wild river but even a 20-foot waterfall? Please
As usual, Germans can's shoot straight and a re all drunk, bad, puking, and have I mentioned they can't shot straight?
Later he hears singing in the woods, and walks up to a large group of soldiers who did not think it was handy to put up a perimeter guard of any kind, near enemy territory. He sits himself down amongst them but no one notices.
Blake (a Corporal) asks every second soldier and officer he finds where MacKenzie is, and they all point him to him, never asking any questions as to who he is and why he wants to see their CO.
Scenery: too clean just like the soldiers. explosions take place next to soldiers, but the stand tall without any reaction, or, they stand still for one second and only then get blown to the side (slightly) by the blast.
This movie better than Saving Private Ryan? What travesty and utter crap. This movie can't hold a candle to the muppet show. Do not waste your money. I you're looking for brainless entertainment: good for you you might enjoy it.
You are a war-movie/history buffin like me, avoid this one. It's just another Dunkirk-like mediocre flick. Dead in the water and a missed opportunity. I'd give it two stars. One star because of all the fake 10/10 reviews.
Oh, and the one-take camera approach leaves you longing for a cut after 10 minutes.
