Rating: 10/10 (17 August 2017)

There are defining moments in film history that prove the magic of cinema is far from extinction. Today, very few director's heartbeats revolve around wowing audiences not just with storytelling capabilities or technical skill, but with courageous filmmaking. "Dunkirk" proves that even as time passes by in life and within the industry, we can revel in the beauty of hope not being lost. The clock ticks away rapidly in this nerve shredding war story, and yet, Christopher Nolan manages to make time stand still in a film that will leave you breathless. The central focus doesn't revolve around developing characters or toying with emotions, but rather, celebrating the human spirit by dropping the viewer in a situation of impossible odds with brave men who chose to never surrender to a relentless enemy. #dunkirk
