Mountain

About This Movie

So, Mountain (2018) is pretty gritty for a war film. It captures that claustrophobic vibe of being stuck behind enemy lines during WWII. The pacing is tense, like you’re holding your breath the whole time. The performances from the cast bring a raw intensity to their struggle for survival; you really feel their desperation. What stands out are the practical effects—feels more authentic than CGI overload. There’s this palpable sense of brotherhood amidst chaos, and the cinematography has this hauntingly beautiful quality. It’s not your typical war flick; it digs into the psychological toll of war, rather than just the action. Kind of a niche vibe but worth checking out if you appreciate the more cerebral side of the genre.
