A Great Anti-War Movie

Rating: 8/10 (28 April 2019)

This movie really works because of its non-linear sequence and the lack of dialogue. It's a movie that's quietly then loudly intense and it shifts between both modes, with Hans Zimmer's brilliant work on the score in the background that provides another layer of underlying tension that keeps you on your toes. Dunkirk is an anti-war movie that shows the human spirit to just Survive, that men who get sent to war are just collateral for a few powerful men who started it all. Dunkirk doesn't get into the politics of things and shows us war in the eyes of regular soldiers and their desperation to live another day.
