Simple ingredients. Better movie.

Rating: 7/10 (29 July 2017)

What Dunkirk lacks in a complex story, it makes up for in its elegance and sophistication, as well as in its realism and engaging nature. You do not know the characters well by the end of it, but you still feel for them and hope for their survival throughout. The film interlocks three different stories beautifully, and while you know when it switches between them, it's edited very well and is not intrusive. I enjoy non-linear narratives very much, as I did in films like Pulp Fiction.
The film does not feature many well-known actors, which helps keep viewers immersed in the film. It does feature Harry Styles, but I couldn't really tell it was him, and he gives a good performance so it doesn't really matter. In fact, I don't believe there were any bad performances in the film.
I recommend seeing this one in the theater, it makes the experience even more worthwhile.
