The Outpost (2019)
8/10
One of the Most Immersive War Movies I've seen
5 October 2020
The Outpost is definitely the biggest surprise of the year. This movie won't top any of the best war movies of all time lists, but if we're talking about a most immersive war movie list, this movie is definitely up there along with 1917 and Dunkirk. The way the camera moves and follows the actors absolutely immerses you into the battle sequences. Beyond the technical aspects, this movie immerses you by portraying the soldiers and everyday army life realistically. We don't know any of the characters in any type of deep and meaningful way but how the characters interact with each other makes the setting feel real and lived in.

This movie also has an incredible performance from Caleb Landry Jones and there is one scene in particular where his performance knocks you off your feet. Overall, this is a great film and definitely one that I'll revisit in the future.
