Excellent, tense, terse account of Dunkirk with technical issues.

Rating: 9/10 (24 July 2017)

Visually impressive, well acted and superb sound track. Shooting it on location was brilliant. Much has been written about all of that. While I did really enjoy it there were a few technical things that I wish had been handled better. 1. The AAA on the beach never seemed to be used when the Luftwaffe showed up. Never happened. 2. 300,000 men being moved off the beach in 7 days (or so). Would have required more then a handful of small craft and the occasional minesweeper. I was sorry that this was under represented when the shots of the beach were taken. It would have been nice to get the odd wide shot in there with LOTS of small vessels. Never happened. 3. German Stukas diving on the beach must have sucked. In the movie there were never more than three at a time in the air. I was under the impression that squadrons flew together and 20-30 in the air at a time would be much more likely. Never saw that.
Everything else was great!
Go and see it!
