Missed opportunity

Rating: 6/10 (16 March 2020)

There is no denying that this movie gets a 10/10 for visuals and cinematography. But when you put those things aside, you see an amazing story that could never reach its full potential. Half this movie is just the main character walking around. And then the other half are war sequences that lack any action or entertainment. Also, his friend from the beginning that died 30 minutes in was pointless. We never got to actually connect with him. Overall this could've been great, but instead misses the mark.
Consensus: 1917 is a visually stunning film, however, this is brought down by a story that never reaches its full potential, and an overall boring adventure.

Visuals and cinematography: 10/10
Story and plot: 4/10
Acting: 8/10
Entertainment: 4/10
Overall: 6.5/10
