1917

1917 is fine. The movie itself looks fantastic. The way the movie was shot and edited to look like one shot, this was very deserving of the awards it received at the Oscars a few weeks back. The cinematography was incredible and was exactly what it should have been. However, when it comes to the story and the acting, it’s simply an incredibly generic war story. I am baffled that the script has gotten as far as it got in the nominations this year. I really enjoy the method Sam Mendez used and admire it, nevertheless, beautiful effects can’t make up for a generic story. Still, the movie was fun to watch and it definitely pulled you into the world. But, other than that, this movie doesn’t offer much. 7.9/10
