I am sure this is going to be nominated for a few Oscars and technically it did a brilliant job of portraying what happened and the sound effects were excellent, I felt like I was really there. I was expecting it to be more of an entertaining war film like Black Hawk Down (also based on a true story) but it felt more like a National Geographic special.
I can see that. I think if you were expecting a story-driven film then this would surprise you. It is a film driven by picture and sound rather than dialog.

The thing about seeing it in the cinema is that it's perfect for that medium. It wouldn't work on television as well as it does with large screens a big sound systems. I also love that this and other films such as Mad Max, Gravity and Baby Driver to a less extent are taking advantage of cinema more.

This is the kind of film Michael Bay would like to do but lacks the ability. It's how you do a specular film.
