Visually a great film, with Greengrass's style very suited to this genre. It made fighting in the Somme look like a piece of cake. The Americans did not take to the film as it exposes the flawed/rewritten intelligence that they used to go to war, and which unfortunately Tony Blair was duped into accepting. It also highlights America's administration attitude as what to do after the battle was completed and summed up neatly in the interpretors last line "It's not up to you to determine what happens in this country."
8.5/10
