Nolan's best work to date. Must see!

Rating: 10/10 (19 July 2017)

This must be one of the most gripping and realistic films about WW 2 (not a war film, according to Nolan) ever made. Superbly filmed, edited and acted, it forces you to experience what the people in that decisive event felt, with constant contact with death and annihilation and the desperation felt by several hundred thousand helpless soldiers on the beach surrounded by German troops. The aerial war scenes were magnificent and showed the RAF:s pilots exceptional heroism. An extremely emotional film, a tale of a military defeat turned into a moral victory that influenced the outcome of WW 2 and the world that we live in. Simply a masterpiece.
