A slow-burn, masterfully directed and really well acted...worth a watch

It’s a good movie, but it’s really hard to watch (multiple rape scenes and racism). Realistically shows how brutal colonial England was.

Disturbing and visceral. I genuinely cheered for the main character. This is not an easy movie to watch

A powerful, dark, raw, painful and captivating tale. It's as horrifying as it's compelling as it's poignant. It could tear you apart.

This was an amazing drama adventure. Great revenge arc for the main character.

Very compelling story that will keep you engaged throughout. Very brutal and intense but enhances the story instead of being for shock value

One of the most brutal, disturbing films. Pulls no punches. It slows down on the back end but the imagery and performances are unforgettable

In a film full of brutality, the most upsetting thing is the inhumanity of the soldiers. A veneer of respectability hiding depravity.
