Complete Buffoon

The pain is unbearable. Make it stop. I can't go 10 minutes without hearing amogus or sus in my head. I cant go to the bathroom without seeing amogus on the coat hanger on the door. I cant stop seeing it. It's everywhere. It's driving me far past schizophrenia.

This movie... you cannot describe in words. The emotion, the tragedy, the harsh realities of not just war, World War One itself. Sam Mendes made this the most emotional war movie I have actually ever seen, and after seeing it you just think to yourself about what you have just seen. Going through the trenches and landscapes with one continuous shot encases yourself into this horrific war. It's perhaps the greatest war movie of all time. As we follow the lives of 2 soldiers; William Schofield and Tom Blake. They have a mission; stop an attack that will cost the lives of around 1,600 men. William at first is not so fond of the attack, however, Tom convinces him to do so because of his toppling and accurate ego of a young soldier who only wishes to do right and carry out his orders. As the story carries on, we clearly see the distinct line between the two. Blake doesn't understand why Schofield gave up his medal; he did it for survival. All of the things that would bring him glory and happiness, he abandoned because of clear will. We also learn that he does not wish to return home because he has a wife and kids (yes, this is a big middle finger to the people who created fanfiction on this movie), and he doesn't want to return home as a daddy, meanwhile he will only have to return back to the battlefields and leave his family anti-climatically. I will not release any more spoilers, but this movie is a wonder. A true piece of art that I can even compare to the likes of Dunkirk and Saving Private Ryan, even Waterloo. So as you watch the movie 1917, keep in mind that this was a war like no other. Valuable lives lost for half an inch; so that they, in glory in triumph, could be momentary victors of a pointless war.

Other than the soundtrack and the special effects (which Micheal Bay does best at), it's your typical Hollywood attempt at trying to portray the US as the all so innocent victims of WWII and then portray them as heroes. It has very cliche 1940's romance, cliche heroism (if there was any at all), and simply just lacked emotion to go along with the perfect soundtrack.

George Orwell warned us of technology.

A movie so powerful, it quite literally restored my faith in both humanity and God. As a pacifist myself, I quite honestly enjoy learning about war so that I can understand what went wrong then, and this movie got me interested in war. This movie entails one of the best war stories of all time, and does it in a way that isn't overly nationalistic or patriotic.

Many people will say this can't happen, but, really, it can. Time is a dimension in and of itself, and gravity is the only thing that can travel through it. Nolan shows this in a scientific masterpiece, while also portraying the horror of feelings. A clear difference is made between humanity and mankind, and in the midst of it all they have to choose with THEIR emotions rather to abandon humanity to create mankind, or to abandon mankind to save the current humanity. All of what is in this movie could possibly happen. Wormholes definitely aren't big enough to transport a space station like the Endurance, but in a distant future we very well could make one. There is a reason wormholes and black holes are similar in property, and the answer to gravity that is still unknown and will remain unknown is out there lurking until one of our great grand children takes the leap of faith to find it. Nolan shows all of this in a masterpiece by captivating scenes, music, and most importantly, scientific fact.
