An unbelievable achievement.

Rating: 10/10 (1 February 2020)

This movie deserves every accolade heading its way. Sam Mendes has delivered not only one of the best war movies ever but one of the best movies full stop. The first act is one seamlessly put together tracking shot that builds serious tension while throwing in a few uppercuts that really catch you off guard, the second half is nothing short of sublime. Beautifully terrifying, sensationally upsetting, heartbreaking and thrilling it doesnt let up right to the end credits. The performances from the leads are incredible and are soundly backed up by the wider cast and when paired with the most amazing cinematography means I have no criticisms at all to say about this film. See it, absorb it, remember the bravery of our elders ...then see it again.
