Eerste reacties WO I-epos 1917 online
Sam Mendes’ WO I-epos 1917 wordt na de eerste vertoning lovend onthaald door de pers. De film vertelt het verhaal van twee Britse soldaten (George MacKay en Dean-Charles Chapman) en werd als één lang shot opgenomen.

1917 is quite a thing. Always intense, often horrific (at times it feels like watching an actual horror movie). I was skeptical of the “one continuous shot” aspect — worried it would get too cute with it — but it really works for this story, putting us right there in this hell

1917 = OUTSTANDING. A WWI-epic bursting w/ a depth of heart and emotion unprecedented in the genre. Stunning sequence after stunning sequence. Mckay's remarkable. So immersed you forget what's unraveling's done in 1-take. Viscerally audacious filmmaking to end 2019 on a high note

1917 is THE technical achievement of 2019. We’re with these men through every footstep & it’s unlike any war film you’ve ever seen before. Epic & tense direction by Sam Mendes, emotional & exhilarating music from Thomas Newman & an all timer from cinematographer Roger Deakins. pic.twitter.com/L0C7hKxR6C

#1917 is a tremendous piece of filmmaking. Bold in its storytelling, masterful in its execution- it's thrilling & emotional & I could not take my eyes off the screen from the second it began to the second it ended. The very definition of a film you MUST see on the big screen. Wow pic.twitter.com/KNO7Rp92TG

Aaannnndddd that's your frontrunner!
'1917' is the best war film since SAVING PRIVATE RYAN. The cinematography of the year. The cinematography of the decade. Thomas Newman's orchestral masterpiece. Sam Mendes gift to cinema…and his family. Every ounce is powerful.#1917Movie pic.twitter.com/EiwCTthAX3

1917: The most successful example of a film presented entirely as one long take (with whatever invisible editing cheats make that possible) since… ROPE? Emotionally immersive in a way the same techniques in GRAVITY and BIRDMAN never were for me.

Sam Mendes invented a new form of filmmaking with his Great Picture about The Great War that with one simple story tells of the physical brutality of a conflict that cinema had mostly forgotten. 2nd Oscar almost guaranteed for Deakins #1917Movie #Oscars @1917

1917 is stunning! The camera never leaves the characters making for a visceral experience. The performances by George MacKay and Dean-Charles Chapman are excellent and the score is one of Thomas Newman's best. See it in the biggest, loudest theater you can. #1917Movie pic.twitter.com/YfuayAeUee

Sam Mendes delivers an emotional and powerful film with #1917. A combo of Saving Private Ryan and The Revenant if u may, bold storytelling and an amazing performance by George MacKay. Great cinematography by Roger Deakins and excellent score by Thomas Newman. Simply phenomenal. pic.twitter.com/xyE9CQa3sH
