The Race Against Time

Rating: 9/10 (29 July 2017)

What can be better than returning Home? Nothing..I suppose! Hans Zimmer probably delivered the most riveting and immersive sound experience of his career which essentially keeps the urgency of the matter Alive and Kicking until the closing second. Nolan retorts to his unusual story telling delicately knitting the different horizons between Land, Water and Air which unfolds at their own pace eventually culminating at the goal.
DUNKIRK has it's script limited to the secluded evacuation of Allied forces from the clutches of a dreadful and merciless German army. It's the sheer brilliance of a terrific screenplay and direction combined with a captivating background score which testifies the horrific sequences which the Allied forces would have battled through the intermittent Nazi strikes. The other beauty of the movie lies in the nano aspects taken care of throughout the 107 minutes of visual excellence resulting from a genius Cinematography. One such would be the sequence involving Spitfire pilot Collins to escape his defunct jet somewhere in the English Channel while the water gushes in leaving a dead drop silence throughout the theater. Farrier and Mr Dawson get their share of heroism to display which was essentially a race against time as the enemy was round the corner.
DUNKIRK is probably, in fact, the best IMAX movie which you can enjoy in a 2D atmosphere till date. A movie which essentially demonstrates the emphatic usage of time and resources to represent the cause vividly. A war has it's own emotions associated, returning home is altogether special! Kudos DUNKIRK team, both the real and the reel! 8.5/10
