First, I usually love war movies. They are among my favorite genres.

My criteria for judging isn't about accuracy. It's about plot, character development, and the usual good story telling.

I loved Dances with Wolves, Saving Private Ryan, Midway. I even liked Hacksaw Ridge even though I thought it was pretty stupid for a person not to carry a gun in a war.

But this "1917" movie was just stupid. It's poor copy of "Dances with Wolves", "Saving Private Ryan", and "Hacksaw Ridge". Probably a copycat of other war movies too, but 3 examples is good enough.

Dances with Wolves - remember the beginning scenes where Kevin Costner gets on his horse and rides across the battle ground where the enemy could take open shots at him? Yeah, just watch toward the end of "1917" and you will see what I mean. So stupid.

Saving Private Ryan - remember how they were on a mission to save private Ryan? In "1917" it's another brother they want to find.

Hacksaw Ridge - remember how the main character doesn't like violence so he refuses to shoot anyone or even carry a gun? Pretty stupid in a war? Yeah? What would you do if your ENEMY's plane came crashing down in a flame of fire in front of you? The same ENEMY that would KILL you in a heartbeat? Would you try to SAVE your ENEMY's life and risk getting blown up or catch on fire or something else? Yeah. No wonder that stupid "Parasite" movie won at the Oscars. There are just too many stupid movies being nominated.
