A very intense and gripping film...avoid reviews labelling it historically inaccurate.

Rating: 7/10 (26 August 2017)

In short, the film was far from a masterpiece. With that being said, it certainly contained an phenomenal amount of tension throughout, and managed to stop my eyes from wondering about the movie theatre.
The reviews that shun the film for being historically inaccurate are completely unfair and some of the points made in them should not even be paid attention to because of how ridiculous they are. In fact, the film specifically states how scenes have been dramatised due to lack of evidence or knowledge in certain scenarios that occurred during the periods portrayed.
Some of these members are rating this film one star, simply based on the historical inaccuracies, but is that the only thing to base such a narratively-rich film on ? What about all other components that should be analysed when reviewing a film ?
A 7 out of 10 is a fair score. Without giving anything away, you will be able to get through this film quite comfortably, maybe finding that it does drag a bit and some scenes could have been shortened (especially the first half of the film). However, overall, a solid piece of film.
DO NOT LET THE REVIEWS MOANING ABOUT HISTORICAL INACCURACIES PUT YOU OFF.
