Overrated

Rating: 7/10 (3 August 2019)

It's fine, but I think the good feelings for this film are mostly due to its cultural status, rather than its merit as a movie.
Frankly I think it would have been a better film if Steve McQueen's character wasn't in it.
I suppose there needed to be an American, and he needed to be the hero, because it would have done no business in the US without those things.
