An absolutely beautiful film about the thrilling true story of Bernard Jordan, a veteran who travelled alone to the beaches of Normandy in order to pay respects to his fallen comrades. He meets some fellow veterans on his way, an unknowingly becomes a news icon!
The stunning visuals and cinematography are choreographed in such a way to bring out a deep emotional response. I often don't cry at films, but there were a handful of scenes in The Great Escaper that made me shed tears.
There are elements of romance, war drama, and comedy throughout the film, as well as brilliant performances all around, which makes for an enjoyable watch for many.
However, the pacing was way too fast in my opinion. The film is about an hour and a half long, but I feel it would've been better suited to be two hours or two and a half hours.
If you fancy a trip to the cinema, The Great Escaper should be high on your priority list!

BlackBerry is a biographical film about the rise and fall of Research in Motion, or 'BlackBerry'. It delves into the origins of RiM and the issues that they faced when the company was just getting off of it's feet and the issues they started to face after the customer demand and the release of the Apple iPhone.
Some of the scenes tend to drag on, but it does the job. The performances are great and I have no critique about that.
The problem is that there's a point where it feels like you're watching the same part on repeat and it drags on far too long. There were some segments of the film that I felt could've been cut out to create a much more streamlined storyline.
However, it's not bad for what it is and is ultimately enjoyable. I like the small detail that the cinematography becomes more 'professional' and less The Office-esque as the film progresses and RiM grew as a company.
