Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Captivating movie !
best movie i've ever seen.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Disappointing movie. Avoid watching this one. Confusing movie.
Nolan intentionally eschews traditional storytelling in favour of having no characters. As a result, I felt cold and uninterested.Visually a masterpiece. Is that enough? No I nearly fell asleep.
Very slow plot, unrealistic scenes, and a really boring scenario, I wonder why it has so good ratings...
No doubting the expertise and craft given in the making of this film, it is an epic tale of an epic moment seen though the eyes of the participating servicemen. It never was meant to be anything more than just a simple plain telling of a complicated battle, which is good as a complicated retelling of a complicated battle would of been "Inception 2' - !!, however, it is thankfully kept simple and yet still seems crammed. It is seen through the eyes of several serviceman but definitively through just mainly two and also a civilian and within these perspectives lay the heart of the British spirit which the film proudly yet with subtlety displays. The fighter pilots, the civilian rescue missions, and the young heroic 'boy' soldier, who are all excellently played. It is a difficult movie to make if made the way Nolan has made it and yet it still weaves together well. I guess my underlying issue is that I've waited to see another Nolan masterpiece and made to his own specific and 'branded' way and to wait and then be served with a grey skied bleak re-telling of a story another director could of made means I now have to wait longer? I know this is selfish and possibly disrespectful to the heroes of this war, but I only wish someone else could of come along instead to make this movie. Great production, superb sound engineering, decent acting, very good directing. It a 6.7 from me...
