I don't give a lot of movies 10....this deserves it.

Rating: 10/10 (5 February 2020)

I don't understand the negative reviews. I'm positive they watched a different movie because this movie is a great achievement and the greatest war movie since Saving Private Ryan.
I've read a few reviews that say the one shot style is a gimmick and I 100% disagree. The one shot style draws you into the story like nothing else. You are there the whole time with these 2 men in one of the worst times in history. The level of tension you feel the whole time wondering if a sniper is going to take them out or they get shot by a random German at any time is why it works.
You feel the emotion as they do, the tragedy, the sorrow and everything else that happened along the way. Personally, a movie is a great movie if it can move you emotionally. This movie moved me many many times.
Once the movie finished, we all just sat there in silence while we thought over what we had just seen. I know war is hell and I know WWI was way worse than what we saw. But that doesn't take anything away from the masterpiece that is 1917.
Thank you to all who made this and to the great men that fought and sacrificed their lives for our freedom.
