Looking forward to the remake; by another writer/director

Rating: 1/10 (23 July 2017)

The movie was a huge disappointment.
Here's some of the things that have been said about this movie - none of them are true:
"A technical masterpiece" "An absolutely outstanding depiction" "A must See" "Best movie Of summer 2017" "Best war film ever made" "A must see film" "Dunkirk is an authentic..." "Dunkirk is the most realistic war-movie ever made"
If I had the time, for my own personal viewing I would re-work this movie by first re-ordering the overlapping and out of sequence scenes, and then kill the entire droning musical score (obviously it would have to be on a track that I can turn off). Just these simple changes would make it a far better watch. To fine tune the movie further, I would shorten the many long pointless pauses, when people in real life would either do or say something.
The evacuation from Dunkirk was of course a real event, a significant element of which was the hundreds of small vessels and regular folk who took to the sea to being their boys back home – all of that hardly came through, nor did the true seriousness of the situation on the beaches and in the town, and the fighting that was going on in an attempt to slow the approaching army down.
All in all, I think this movie is a p-poor-job. I wish I'd waited until it was on Netflix - I could have at least been editing some of my photos at the same time.
Do I think you should watch this at the movie theatre: No!
