I know what the fuss is about

Rating: 9/10 (24 January 2019)

It gives me great pleasure to add another glowing review amongst my many disappointments.
My last was for Roma, which I gave 10 stars. I only gave this 9 although immediately after I gave it A10. I guess the only slight misgiving I had was the obvious manipulation of audience, including mine, emotions. Whilst you are swept up in it, enjoy it but afterwards I felt manipulated. Very different from the subtle approach of Roma, which was as emotional but was almost an aside. This is all about getting us emotional.
That said, I said it was a glowing review. What everyone else said. 😁
Great script, Viggo amazing, great score (read stirring), great cinematography, etc, etc.
Oscar worthy.
