Great spectacle, but...

Rating: 7/10 (1 September 2017)

Great spectacle, but in the end not much more than just spectacle. The actors are asked to run the emotional gamut from A to B and do so admirably. If you know nothing of Dunkirk, this film may enlighten you a bit. If you already know something of the history of Dunkirk, you will take away nothing new and this adds only a modicum of depth to the story from a narrative standpoint.
