I recently saw Only the Brave, and I was very impressed!
I had seen an earlier screening of this film, and although I had thought there were some very effective scenes, things didn't seem to flow together. Well, it is obvious that the director and editor have been working hard because the version that I just saw was very tight and a huge improvement over what I saw a few months ago.
I thought the combat scenes were very well done and they did a good job of conveying the amount of tension and fear that these soldiers must have been feeling. But even more so, I loved the little glimpses into the personal lives of each of these men. They helped to create fleshed out characters that the audience could have an emotional connection with.
The acting was all very strong. I liked the art direction which did a good job of making this film a step back in time to a different era.
I watched this screening along with my father who was a veteran of the 442. He was deeply moved by the film.
Kudos to Lane Nishikawa and company for making a very important movie.
