Review of The Eagle (2011) by Fadeblack — 18 Oct 2020
A surprisingly solid, at times near-great film, one with a clear unapologetic drive, purpose and execution that you rarely get these days. Not every historical movie is supposed to be muddled with every last subject depicted as monstrously dasdardly.
Sometimes it's ok to have a clear story. So thoroughly enjoyed this film and I wish directors had the balls to make more of these. Also 1000 extra bonus points for being one of the very, very, very few not to have dumb romance plots thrown in to appease the romance mandate for every film.
