Christopher Nolan's Dunkirk is his 10th entry in the conventional filmography, a true chef-d'oeuvre. As reiterated earlier by many it's truly a story of survival in the backdrop of earlier stage of Second World War, where British, French & Belgian forces were on full retreat due to German's Blitzkrieg onslaught. Nolan always expects his audience to use the grey cells while enjoying his vision; Dunkirk is no different. The story commands a unique format which overlays different period, story on beach covering a week, one on sea which takes one full day into account, one in the air while portraying aerial combat which lasts an hour with non-linear blend in time skill- fully interlaced where the dots get connected during climax, very like his earlier works viz. 'Following', 'Memento', though the story is quite simple. 2018 will be a decisive year for Oscars, Dunkirk will surly put stiff competition for its cinematography, movie & direction. The aerial dog-fighting between the German Luftwaffe & British Royal Air-force were amazing. It's a movie which warrants an IMAX viewing. This is not a story of single character but of allied regiments which faced colossal defeat during the 'Invasion of France'. Standout performance goes to Tom Hardy & Mark Rylance. A must watch at the theaters.
