Roger Ebert once said that all movies should be seen on a large screen. I can think of few movies where this is more true than 1917. I can't tell you how many times (especially in the middle of the film) I was struck by just how beautiful the movie was to look at. I can think of five or six scenes that wouldn't be out of place when put next to some of the all-time great scenes in cinema. At some point I am going to seek out the behind-the-scenes extras (something I never do) to find out how they were able to have scenes that lasted several minutes at a time from a single camera. I think some people stayed away from the movie because they feared at would be as violent and as personal as Saving Private Ryan. While the film certainly had war as a backdrop there was actually very little fighting.
