Genre: Drama
Director: James Hawes
Cast: Anthony Hopkins, Johnny Flynn, Helena Bonham Carter, Lena Olin, Jonathan Pryce, Ziggy Heath, Ramola Garai, Alex Sharp, Samantha Spiro, Juliana Moska

MPAA Rating: "R" (Profanity)
Genre: Drama
Director: Regina King
Cast: Kingsley Ben-Adir, Eli Goree, Aldis Hodge, Leslie Odom Jr.

Although inconsistently paced, there’s enough compelling material here to make for a challenging and thought-provoking fly-on-the-wall’s perspective.

Blends the intelligence of a well-written dramatic sci-fi/fantasy tale with the action/adventure of a big budget motion picture.

A better-than-average war movie, merging technical craftsmanship, narrative coherence, and competent acting.
