A fascinating study on masculinity

Rating: 8/10 (4 October 2019)

An impressive performance from Chalamet accompanied by an equally impressive Joel Edgerton makes for a fantastic story based around notions masculinity in the 15th century.
A reserved king who does not want chaos, but reform and peace, is slowly coerced into a battle he does not want to take part in.
Use of interesting but human camera movement, eerie sound design and ever so natural looking light immerses as much in battle scenes, as it does interior conversation scenes, summing up the mood and feeling of the time perfectly.
An engaging watch and does not feel too long, even at 2 hours 15. 8/10
