Worthy Every minute of your time

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2017)

Story telling:
This movie is one original and unique experiment on how best an ordinary story can be told in a very very intriguing non linear way.
It is the same known story from the history books, told from three different points of view, spread across three different time duration, moving at a three different paces on three different elements , intervening with other time lines finally converging to one breathtaking climax.
First is from the POV of the soldiers, on the ground, spread across a week, gloomy dull sky, with constant fear on their faces. Second is from the POV of the civilians with boats, on the water, spread across a day, with sacrifice for home as the emotion. Third is from the POV of the royal air force, in the air , spread across an hour, blue sky and bravery against all odds. All the major incidents in the story line are shown from all three perspectives and edited in such a brilliant way that one has to put their brains to work on to know if they have already seen that from a different perspective. Every time, something is assumed, Nolan comes back with a surprise in a different time line only to remind you that this is his movie!
How is it different?
It is not a conventional story. It does not start with an innocent young lad, volunteering, bidding adieu to worried family and loved ones, fighting in the combat zone, coming back victorious with head held high to the fluttering flag.
Its not about damn characters and there are none(spoiler: there is no Batman and Robin too). Its just about the war. Its just about the action. No god damn lines to put on your bedroom posters.
Overall - worthy of the money you spend on expensive ticket at IMAX with Dolby Atmos surround sound. Only boring part is when they paused in the middle to sell popcorn.
