It seems like the writers and director had something to prove by making a movie that appears as if it were filmed as one continuous take. Mission accomplished.

But the movie provides only a mediocre experience for us, the audience. It offers nothing new about war in general or WWI in particular. There is very little that it has to say; in fact there is hardly a story beyond the obvious one of two corporals in a race on foot to get a battalion to stand done. And it gratuitously drops in A-list actors who barely add any value.

And, yes, it has the look, feel, and engagement of a video game.

If all of this sounds good, go see it.
