One of the great masterpieces in its genre..Chris certainly in his prime

Rating: 10/10 (22 July 2017)

This movie is an experience in itself. Nolan puts the viewer into the battlefield at Dunkirk during WWII.We experience the same dread , urgency and tension as the solders of the 3 allied nations felt whilst being surrounded by German troupes, facing attack from air, land and sea.
As a Nolan fan i've come to love his unique way of storytelling and the cerebral mind-games he plays with his viewers. This movie(except maybe insomnia) follows a rather straightforward story line, thought he does play with perspectives that intertwine and overlap in time(his trademark non linear storytelling) amplifying the intensity with each passing minute.
Hats of to Chris. He no longer has the luxury of making a "good" movie, only excellence will satisfy us. Also hats off the Hoyte van Hoytema for a spectacular cinematography and Hans Zimmer for his compelling sound design.
Peace.
