1917: A Nonstop Ride from Beginning to End

1917 is set during WWI and is about a soldier's journey to deliver an important message. Sam Mendes did an amazing job directing and Roger Deakins did the cinematography. This movie keeps going and doesn’t give the audience a lot of time to catch their breath.

The camera work is amazing in 1917 because the entire movie looks like one continuous shot. The cuts in scenes are hidden very well. The landscape shots are breathtaking. The audience feels like they are in the battlefield with the main character. This is the best live action adaptation of a Call of Duty or Battlefield game. It’s like the audience is watching a mission from a video game.

There are some big name stars in 1917 including Colin Firth, Mark Strong, Benedict Cumberbatch, and Richard Madden. When the main character meets each actor it’s like a checkpoint in a game. This movie is meant to be seen in theaters and a big format. I saw 1917 in Dolby Cinema and the auditorium was rumbling. This is a must see! 🍔🍔🍔🍔
