Boring big budgeted snoozer

Rating: 4/10 (24 May 2018)

As far as the technical aspects of the film go, the film is pretty solid, has lush visuals, looks and sounds amazing. However, in viewing a cohesive film that tells a story and entertains? Not really, as impressive as the film is visually, it did not resonate with me and bored me to tears. I did not care about a single character in this film and was a serious struggle to stay awake to the film's conclusion . The film is taken from the point of view of three, on land, sea and air and much like the characters in the film, I was sitting around and waiting for this to end. Durkirk is Christopher Nolan's WW2 war epic and as such is way too long, self indulgent and very low on action. The action that is in the film is all pyrotechnics and essentially a big special f/x circlejerk with forgettable characters and an incoherent story. Thumbs down on this one.
