Impressive. Claustrophobic. Glorious. NOT an anti-war movie. NO real war horrors to be seen. Slick Hollywood war movie at it's finest...

Rating: 8/10 (24 April 2020)

Any bad? Not much, BUT it is "glorifying" one of the most hideous wars, with lots of violins and supposedly heroic acts, the way Hollywood typically likes to portray war movies. That's only a minor gripe though. The acting by the unknown leading actors isnt great, but it surely aint terrible either.
Suited for families, because there is NONE real war horror to be seen, everything is presented as another exciting action game without disgusting violence, evertything constantly smoothed over by glorious sounding violins.
The good; it's indeed a brilliantly photographed movie. Really impressive and deservedly awarded with an Oscar for photography, but NOT for Best Picture. More good: it's a fascinating and thrilling spectacle from start to finish. The masses will love this kind of spectacle Hollywood war movie. I loved it too!
The story is simple: 2 soldiers have to sneak through enemy lines to deliver a crucial message that will determine the lives of thousands of British soldiers. Will they get through enemy lines alive?
Will I wanna see it again, now I now how the story goes? Yes, because it's a thrilling action adventure, BRILLIANTLY photographed.
