Unbalanced and Missing major points.

Rating: 2/10 (29 January 2018)

Disappointed. I honestly was expecting a better movie. Plenty of aerial combat outweighing repeat scenes of men dying on the beaches, and drowning. I found the story line sadly lacking as from my memory of the story and history I thought much more emphasis should have been put on the civilian armada that went to their rescue. Why Dunkirk stood out among all the battles and atrocities of WWII? Yes, they had one boat with father, son and a friend who was hardly necessary to story line, but in history there were hundreds of vessels of all sorts that floated. I remember having a real sense of pride in how we British non-combatants went to the rescue of not only our sons, fathers, brothers, but anyone on the beaches.This was not conveyed at all.
