Editor’s note: The Bloody Hundredth (2024) offers an engaging mix of War, Documentary, and History, prioritizing emotional resonance over flashy visuals. Under the guidance of Mark Herzog, the film maintains a consistent pace and a strong sense of place. Standout performances, particularly from Tom Hanks, Steven Spielberg, and James Stewart, infuse the narrative with human stakes. At 1 hour and 3 minutes, the film unfolds in a deliberate manner, seldom lingering too long on any scene. While it has its imperfections, its merits significantly surpass any flaws. The tagline—“The true story of the men who inspired Masters of the Air”—accurately encapsulates its purpose. If the concept resonates with you, make sure to add it to your watchlist.
