It’s amazing how things just work better when you cast Hanks as your lead. He grounds and brings depth to this period drama whose premise isn’t exactly my cup of tea. Greengrass is doing good work in keeping the tone gritty and visceral but never exploitative even at its most nihilistic (and, yeah, it goes dark a couple of times).
Is It Good?
Very Good (6/8)
