Misunderstood Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (2 August 2017)

Christopher Nolan has up to this point never made a bad movie. Some of them aren't great(Insomnia), but none of them are reprehensible atrocities. The people who hated or didn't like Dunkirk wanted to see something moving and character driven like Saving Private Ryan or any of the other great WW2 movies out there. Nolan chose to make the audience a character in this film rather than have the audience follow around a solitary character in which we place our empathy. To the haters of this film: I understand, but I certainly don't agree. In my opinion, this film should FINALLY get Nolan a well deserved Oscar nomination for Best Director, and depending on the competition that remains to be seen, he might very well deserve to win in that category.
