my only complaint was that I watched it at home instead of the theater where it must have been five times as powerful... and that's saying something because it knocked my socks off in my living room.

fantastic movie. prob best movie of the year I've seen so far.

I watched a little 11 minute featurette about how Mendes filmed this.

I can't tell you how excited I am to see it.

Pittsburgh, PA--Enemy territory!
This was incredible.

Wonderful themes of re-birth. I also loved how it was abundantly clear that, for the most part, and except for a few instances, his soldier's weapons were useless. Oh, and "Eff off now, Lance Corporal."

Just got back. Brilliant, powerful movie. Edge of my seat the entire time. The entire theater was dead silent once the credits started to roll.

Something to be seen in the theater.

Yeah... theater is a must.

What a powerful concept. Played out perfectly on camera.

Awesome movie. Worth the price of admission.

Just saw this in IMAX. I must say INCREDIBLE! Blown away at the camera footage and cinematography. Acting was very good! Should win the Oscar as far as I’m concerned!

Went to see it with my wife this weekend. I have to agree that the Cinematography of this film just blew me away.
