Best of Nolan. Best of the year, maybe even the decade!

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2017)

I still don't believe that Christopher Nolan actually pulled off this project using no blood or gore. Telling a story from three different perspectives: land, air, and water, the movie has no particular character arc but an overwhelming piece of storytelling with a minimal amount of dialogue. That said, Dunkirk is THE most immersive war film made to date, and that makes it the movie of the year, probably of the decade and Nolan's best work. When I initially heard that he's making a movie on an actual story related World War II, and given the fact that every one of his work plays with a non-linear timeline, I wondered how he's gonna do it with this topic. But there he was, making all of us scratch our heads with the three different timelines. Chris is a Master of visual storytelling, which is a result of a witty screenplay, extravagant cinematography, and practical visual effects, supported by a heart-pounding musical score by Hans Zimmer. And as always, it needs several re-watches. Plus, I'm looking forward to seeing him grab his first Oscar next year. For Director and Screenplay!
