Don't get me wrong, I love films that exhibit long continuous shots, like Birdman, or Touch of Evil or Hitchock's Rope. Even that Goodfellas tracking shot through the club is fascinating from a technical level.
Unfortunately, 1917 - although ambitious on many levels is simply not much more than a VideoGame first person shooter run through.
It's exhausting watching this effort to carry out a mission, but it fails to really give us substance.
Sorry, kids. Only 5 out of 10.
