Collector con difetti al suo interno
Il box che arriva è perfetto ma al suo interno c'è il rischio che la confezione abbia degli strappi o la busta che contiene il booklet e le foto sia scollato.

An easy five-star rating
I first saw this movie when it was released earlier in the year. As a history-fanatic I was thrilled to see and ‘experience’ this immersive, edge-of-your-seat movie. It’s cast, strong storyline, historically accuracy and fantastic cinematics transport you straight to the era. So it did not disappoint. If you ask me, 1917 is great and momentous, one of the best movies of the past few decades.I will buy most of the movies that are close to my heart and over time I will see them a couple times again. Somewhow I wasn’t looking forward to it to see 1917 again. As I remembered it as an intense viewing experience.Still, I bought the 4k version on disc. And now we watched it with our daughter aged 11 as she is about to have a project about WW1 at school. And she has already read a few books about the topic. There are some gruesome, realistic scenes, but it was borderline alright for her and she actually though it a very good, impressive movie.The movie gives a first hand account of a soldier’s day at the front while he is on a dangerous mission behind the line. As you will have heard, the movie appears as if it is all done in a single shot, which in itself is very clever. I found it less tense than my initial viewing in cinema. Perhaps in the comfort of my home I was a little less drawn in, even though the 4k version is beautiful, with super sharp, deep coloured images that jump from my screen. I buy most my movies in HD format on Prime these days in order to gradually clear out cupboard space. But I wanted to make an exception for this master piece and bought the actual disc, also because it wasn’t yet available in 4K format on Prime.While viewing it at home it now it seemed shorter and it struck me that I almost exactly recalled every second, so I must have been super engaged when I saw it first cinema. Seeing it again made me appreciate the detail and superb acting even more. As well as a few well-timed subtleties, like the fact that we don’t know the main characters name until the end, we that don’t know his motivations and background until the last scene. All very well done. It brings an original, very appealing storyline and new perspective on the more standard trench-war, over-the-ridge WW1 movies. I found it interesting as well that the movie depicts the day that the US joins in the war although there is no reference to that.One thing I found slightly distracting are the brief appearances of several British super stars of acting. On the other hand, I thought that in particular Mark Strong(surprisingly) but also Andrew Scott and Colin Firth absolutely slammed it, though a few more very famous actors are included as well. Of course there is nothing but praise for how well the two lead actors, George Mackay and Dean Charles Chapman perform.So, to conclude this a non-typical war movie that was very well executed on all fronts and an instant classic therefore. I can only thank director Sam Mendes for this. An easy five-star rating. Also I liked it far more than Dunkirk, another fairly recent war movie blockbuster, where I massively struggled with the convoluted timeline despite the strong cinematic graphics and historical scenery.I know a fair amount about the complex topic of WW1 but I’m by no means an expert. For those who want to learn more about the conflict in a digital wanner; I would recommend Dan Carlings 14-hour (!) ‘Blue Print for Armageddon’ podcasts on the conflict, brilliant.
