Did I just watched a different movie?

Rating: 1/10 (16 May 2020)

Overrated. This was the worst movie that i have ever seen in my entire life. Nolan was desperate to show the struggle and the meaning of survival during World War. I know that this is a true story and the portrayal could be close to the actual events, but c'mon man, this is a movie and that's the point. Somehow, it has to be engaging. The director should have made something that will make the audience understands what those soldiers are going through at that very moment. Even if it's something that could deviate a bit from the actual events. I don't know. Maybe focus on one or two soldiers then add a little backstory? That way, we could somehow relate to any of them. There is just no character development. I still gave it a chance though because of the 7.9/10 IMDb rating. I gave this movie the benefit of the doubt. Maybe something good will happen in the middle or a mindblowing scene that will captivate me in the end, then there's this scene where all the soldiers are arguing inside a ship/submarine/boat... gunfires have been shot... and that's it.
Plot:
This is a war movie based on true events (WWII) where soldiers are trying to evacuate the town of Dunkirk. They are struggling to find a good ship because the enemies are dropping bombs everywhere like... where the fck are these guys? Fighter jets flying all over the place. It's confusing because there is no distinction between the Germans, the French, the Brit, or the Belgian. I dont't have any idea who's with who. Some scenes are also confusing. There are scenes where a certain part is nighttime and the other half is daytime. Are you in different timezones? Then here comes the rescuers, the fleet comes in and then tada, the soldiers were saved. The moment they reached land, the soldiers were doubting themselves if they were an embarassment to their country (for just standing, diving and struggling) but don't worry, the people from their homeland still recognized them as heroes in the end. Bravo.
I strongly believe that this could have been portrayed better. Good intentions, bad delivery.
