Very immersive experience

Back to the Front

I've been waiting to see this for a while, especially after seeing a slight behind the scenes trailer showing the great lengths they went to get continuous shots. After all the awards and great reviews expectations were high. I wasn't disappointed.
It's an immersive, gripping drama that will make you feel like you are there, taking part in the mission against the odds. It's not quite one long take but you'll barely notice. It's like a new cinema experience and an awesome one at that. Make sure you see it on the big screen.

Okay Thriller but nothing mind blowing

I won this in the giveaway. To be honest I don't read that many crime or thriller novels as they kind of all blur into one. This was very well written and the pacing was excellent. I just didn't find the story very credible, I know it is fiction, but still needs to be believable. I think the big plot twist at the end would have been more shocking if all the media hype had not left it's own breadcrumbs. Maybe don't read any of the hype before reading.
