Review of Dunkirk (2017) by Stephen Whitty for New York Daily News — 16 Jul 2017

Let other directors play with toy soldiers and computer effects. This is big-time, old-school filmmaking. Dunkirk isn’t overdone. It’s simply done epically...But it’s also human. It has room for small acts of heroism, of kindness, of forgiveness.

And for a single, simple important, timeless message of resilience: Take what comes. Do what you can. Never surrender.
