I haven't seen Blitz but have heard very good things about it. Steve McQueen's movies are always at the least interesting, in this case a war movie with no actual combat. LC

Yeah, wife and I saw it. (First time to the movies for us since before Covid.) They couldn't have telegraphed the bad guys any clearer if they wore black hats. Pretty obvious who the pick was going to be. Total BS ending -- ankle-deep in touchy-feely virtue signaling. "Aren't we just wonderful and aren't they hiss - bad - boo? The real reason to see this flick is the beautiful photography of the Vatican halls, architecture and artwork. It didn't help that I asked the concession to sell me the smallest coke they sold -- and they filled a half-gallon monster cup for $6.99. That's it. I walked in grumpy. Told the wife -- Next time we do the flicks I'm sneaking a small bottle in with me.
