An excellent war film

Rating: 10/10 (7 September 2017)

Christopher Nolan made it again.The director of memento,dark knight trilogy,inception and interstellar is in my modest opinion among the greatest directors such as Spielberg,Cameron,Scott,Scorsese e.t.c Dunkirk is a war film which the scenario depends upon the real events that took place from 26 may-4 June 1940 the famous battle of Dunkirk with the successful evacuation of 300.000 British soldiers from the Nazi's troops.
The reason why it is unique is that it is the first war film about the second world war which is referring to an event that occurred at the beginning of the world war 2 and not the end.The second reason this film is referring to real events from the famous Commander Charles Lightoller who managed to evacuate thousands of British wounded soldiers from the mole of Dunkirk.The last reason is the action scenes which were very realistic and not to forget the great acting by Tom Hardy who plays a pilot for the British royal air force,Kenneth Branagh as Commander Bolton and of course Mark Rylance as Mr.Dawson.
What it is not to be compared is with movies saving private Ryan,Schindler's list,the pianist,fury,inglorious bastards because it is something different.I wouldn't say that it is a masterpiece or one of the best Nolan's movies but it is a movie that someone should see.
