Sam Mendes, the Oscar®-winning director of Skyfall, Spectre and American Beauty, brings his singular vision to this World War I epic. At the height of the First World War, two young British soldiers, Schofield (Captain Fantastic's George MacKay) and Blake (Game of Thrones' Dean-Charles Chapman), are given a seemingly impossible mission. In a race against time, they must cross enemy territory and deliver a message that will stop a deadly attack on hundreds of soldiers—Blake's own brother among them.

Honestly for me, it felt a lot like Dunkirk, very slow, and felt like a British version of Saving Private Ryan with the plot of saving the brother. Some scenes dragged out too long; I get that it was trying to show you Schofield's struggle of getting from one place to the next, but it just became predictable that it was going to take 5-10 min to get from one place to the next in the scene. If Cumberpatch was to give the movie some star power, it really didn't help.

To start out with 2 lone soldiers on a mission to stop the slaughter of 1600 soldiers and 1 brother is utterly ridiculous. This is exactly like saving private ryan. Behind enemy lines in germany where was all the fighting , nowhere. The trench scenes were way too long. Heavy accent is hard to understand even with the volume turned up. People saying this movie was shot continuously are morons. There is one part in the movie where there is a pause.

A really well made film and enjoyable to watch. The way it is shot gives it a nice pace, which along with the soundtrack, keeps you engaged through most of the film. The concept is pretty similar to Gallipoli in a number of ways and whilst you might question some aspects of the story line, overall you can be swept along enjoying it all. Is it "the best war film ever made!" as has been claimed, probably not but still worth a watch.
