BStowers023 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 Saw it yesterday at the Lennox in IMAX. Great movie and 100% worth it to pay to see it in theater and pay the extra for IMAX. Incredible audio and way different than I expected. If you're into history and/or war movies. Go see this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iwashmycar Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 I've not even heard about it lol Ill put it on the list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l36tols1 Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 There was like 28 minutes of total dialogue throughout the whole movie. That's all it needed the visuals and the perfect Hans Zimmer score told the story just fine. This is one you DEFINITELY have to see in IMAX.

Not Brian Posted July 24, 2017 Report Share Posted July 24, 2017 I plan to see it. On a related note, this video wrenched my guts a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Nolan and Hans Zimmer on a movie is a recipe for a great flick. I don't think i have disliked any movie those two have done together. As soon as i heard Nolan was doing a WWII flick I knew it was going to be epic. From all of the reviews everyone says its the perfect mix of action and drama and story telling, I can't wait to see it this weekend. And this will be the rare occassion I go out of my way to see it in Imax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Versluis Posted July 25, 2017 Report Share Posted July 25, 2017 I loved it. Some people are hoping it is like Saving Private Ryan but this is totally different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief8one Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 I had reservations about it being pg-13 and not R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BStowers023 Posted July 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 I had reservations about it being pg-13 and not R. I thought the same going into it. That's the only thing I think that could have possibly made it better was more gore. I'd still give it 3.5/4 stars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 Saw it this afternoon with the wife. Talk about an emotional rollercoaster I wasn't expecting. Really helps drive home how horrible war is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC K9 Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 I left with a stress headache. Never had that happen from a movie before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRocket1647545505 Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 I often get miffed when watching a movie that has such useless and loud background noise that I can't hear the dialogue. I found myself feeling the same way about 1/3 of the way through this movie. By the end, I realized it didn't matter. This is a movie meant to be watched and felt, not watched and heard.

I felt the same way about Interstellar, the opening scene was so loud to give you that effect, but it wasn't over any dialogue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BStowers023 Posted July 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2017 So I watched the movie again, in IMAX (loser I know) and man, this movie is SO CLOSE to being a top 3 war movie ever made IMO but I don't know if I can get it there. There was one obvious thing keeping it from there. *Spoiler* kind of... There was no gore almost at all. If they made the movie at least closer to Private Rysn, maybe not quite that far but at least meet it somewhere in the middle it's easily a 4 star movie and top 3 war movie of all time for me. It still might be top 5 in my book and possibly top 3. Still thinking about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 The lack of gore was really a non-issue for me. I found the movie able to effectively convey the horrors of war even without the gore. Normally I'd say without the gore the, it's hard to drive home the point, but I didn't feel that way at all. I left that movie Happy, Sad, Humbled, and Amazed.

HotCarl Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Tried to see it tonight after my game but there were no late showing's at crosswoods. Trying to go out of my way to see it in Imax.
