Just a really exciting action film that's markedly better than average, and significantly superior than its Metacritic rating might suggest. You can pick holes in the plot, dialogue and some of the acting but it really doesn't matter because this is a visceral and genuinely thrilling action film. It also manages to use the one-take technique to enhance the immediacy of the action rather than being a pointless bit of showy direction that ends up being distracting and annoying, as it was in 1917. James Nunn deserves a lot of credit for pulling this off in such an understated way, and for investing you in characters that have almost zero backstory of depth, but who you genuinely don't know will make it.
