Review of 1917 (2019) by Theeventsof1989 — 11 Jan 2020
As far as war movies go, "1917" was a fantastic watch. The story was well written, it didn't blow my socks off, and while I anticipated some of the reveals (midpoint reversal), they still affected me, and it didn't at all take away from the experience.
The dialogue was very well crafted, and there was only maybe one line that I thought was to on the nose. The visuals are from Deakins (a very well known cinematographer) and as always he is tremendous.
While maybe not every frame is epic or grandiose, the visuals encompass the tone while also adhering to each scene's needs.
