The movie with ten Oscar-nominations and the Best Golden Globe Movie of the Year, 1917 has finally arrived across Indian cinemas today.
1917 looks like a must-watch for every movie buff who’s interested in war-action movies. Set in the era of the First World War, the storyline revolves around the lives of two British soldiers.
Wondering if you should book your tickets to this action-packed historic-drama? Here are a few twitters reactions that’ll help you make up your mind:
Saw the extraordinary and moving #1917Movie this weekend. Respect to the filmmakers for including a brief but notable Sikh soldier character alongsidea British unit. Respect to them for putting aside nerdy historical details because representation matters much more. pic.twitter.com/3ei79gqyrJ

To see even a glimpse of an Indian soldier in a #WW1 Hollywood blockbuster is huge!

Hey, there was Indian Cavalry involved in the pursuit to the Hindenburg line. It’s not just about inclusivity – they were there.

#1917Movie isn’t concerned about the politics of war; it aims to transport audiences to the battlefield, so that next time, they have the good sense to not invoke ‘Siachen ke jawaan’ in their petty arguments.

Sharing photos of recuperating WW1 Sikh soldiers (displayed in Railway Museum York). Interesting quote from the nurse re communication 🙂 Looks like 2 ‘Singhs’ in middle of admission & discharge book sample (1 is ‘Pritam’, other maybe ‘Avtar’?) @Bafsa_mod @bigandylock pic.twitter.com/pGXJa7Xeq4

The cinematography is out of this world & you feel completely immersed in the action.
I can’t stop thinking about 1917. This was one of the best movies I’ve ever seen dude seriously. A Freaking masterpiece. The single shot style just really brings you into it holy shit. I want to watch and cry again times a billion. #1917Movie pic.twitter.com/MxHRchdDhv

The carnage of dead bodies, shattered human organs, rats, trenches, abandoned tunnels – mindblowing production 👌🙏 #1917Movie https://t.co/YsqjW4ymXc
#1917Movie has moved me in a way no war film ever has. It’s the modern day Saving Private Ryan. Brutal, yet beautiful. Horrific yet heartwarming. George McKay was utterly phenomenal and Thomas Newman’s score, give it the award now. This is why I go to the movies. pic.twitter.com/WpP9KbU2Lx

#1917Movie is both a hard-hitting, visceral depiction of World War I and a technical achievement in filmmaking. It’s a #film that takes you on an emotionally powerful journey while also leaving you on the edge of your seat. Sam Mendes has created a masterpiece!
