Not As Good As The Hype

Rating: 4/10 (8 February 2020)

I wanted to like this movie after hearing all the good reviews and awards hype. There's good stuff, acting is fairly good, effects were okay, but at times the CGI looked blurry, buildings at middle or far distance, e.g. It was distracting.
The biggest annoyance was the story line. Simple premise, two soldiers ordered to get from point A to point B to deliver a message. The problem was they continually allowed themselves to be distracted from their mission, and thus to get into trouble. A better script could have found ways to add drama without making the pair look like nincompoops. I have never been a soldier, but at several places I could see a potential problem before these trained soldiers did, and I would have avoided their injuries easily.
An average war movie.
