1917 renders much of a survival movie like Dunkirk rather than non stopping war shootings genre. The movie looked fantastic and the scenes and shots were breath taking.
Sam Mendes use of almost continuous filming aids the overall story. Two young n.c.o.s picked for what looks like a suicide mission.
Cinematographer - Roger deakins, was fantastic, absolutely, some stunning. It is designed as two extraordinary long, unbroken shots, itself is worthy of an Oscar win.
The cast is also brilliant, with each actor giving stellar performances and countless cameos from well renowned figures such as Benedict Cumberbatch, Colin Firth, Mark Strong and Richard Madden.
The plot is where the downside comes. Mind that it is great and propulsively executed but the emptiness of the sub-stories is what 1917 suffers.
Overall I think this is worth-watchable, expertly made war film.
