Nolan's perspective is fresh and it didn't matter you knew what was going to happen next.

Rating: 9/10 (29 July 2017)

This movie has me rethinking my own set of rules which I use to distinguish between a flop and a masterpiece. My mayor rule states that when you can decipher what is going to happen next then automatically the movie is garbage. So... while watching Dunkirk, I guessed instantly how all stories would end. And you too! Bad fuel gauge... crash! Teenager on boat... death! Good old man at helm... success! Pilot drowning... saved! Ahh, including the absurd finale when Farrier lands on a German controlled beach. So this is the genius of Nolan, he turned my "worst movie of the year" according to my usual criteria to a masterpiece. You better get up and forget Netflix tonight and head to your nearest cinema. By the way Nolan, if you ever read this, your engine-less Spitfire flew at the speed of a Ranger from Interstellar, slow it down a little next time.
