A Cinematic Experience

Rating: 8/10 (22 August 2017)

Going into Dunkirk, I thought the movie would be the modern Saving Private Ryan due to the rave reviews it had been receiving. However I was pleasantly surprised by the cinematic experience created by Christopher Nolan. The movie, through Nolan's now trademark convoluted timelines, tends to disregard the complexities that particular war movies may create and focuses more on the raw emotions of the actors that tied together with the harrowing visuals makes Dunkirk one to watch in 2017. Also who would have though Harry Styles could actually act. Overall the film is terrific, though those who are more intrigued by dialogue driven movies may not enjoy it as others as the dialogue in this movie is kept to a minimum
