1/10 only because 10/10 is ridiculous

Rating: 1/10 (19 January 2020)

Not a bad movie to see the amazing way in which it was filmed. The one continuous shot is a marvel to look at and the cinematography is great. But the camera-work ability does not make an amazing and engaging movie.
I know that the director wanted to tell a more personal and slow, intimate story/journey of two average soldiers. But the movie had no impact. There was nothing emotional in the story and you don't get to feel any emotion towards the two soldiers. You don't get to see the brutality of war or a story thats going to affect you and stay with you long after watching the film.
If you're making an intimate personal story about the first world war it needs to have an impact. This story was very bland and very slow/boring. This film is a solid 5/10, but certainly doesn't deserve the praise its receiving.
