Review of Dunkirk (2017) by James W — 07 Aug 2017

I just didn't get it, there's so much to the story that wasn't told, there's no scale to just how much of a disaster Dunkirk was. You end up hating the characters because there's nothing to them.

The theory that the "timeline is all over to enhance the confusion of war" just adds to the lack of story or anything really happening. You end up watching the same scenes played out 10 times, just from slightly different angles.

I have never left a cinema disappointed before. Watching Dunkirk changed that.
