This is the first film I have seen in a while that felt like cinema. The opening montage of shots of the airplane was something I have not seen in film in quite a while. The cinematography is breathtakingly beautiful and poetic. Expect to see cinematographer Erik Messerschmidt nominated during Oscar season. J. D. Dillard also deserves an Oscar nomination for his ability to visually portray human emotions. The acting is great, allowing the actors to establish presence and bounce off each other. The story of friendship and brotherhood is extraordinary. There are a few pacing issues but they're not distracting. The film did not feel over two hours long. Definitely worth catching on the biggest screen you can.
