I still expect Andy Samberg to crack a joke every time I saw him onscreen but kudos to delivering a respectable dramatic performance.

Kate Winslet is still a force to be reckoned with. This was another great performance from her as she effortlessly carried the movie. And Ellen Kuras gave another insightful war movie from a journalist point of view that captured a lot of pictures that we've never seen before.

I wasn't sure about Josh O'Connor's small role. I didn't think he was bad, I just thought he wasn't needed because there was so little for him to do.
