Review of Dunkirk (2017) by Cath O — 14 Sep 2017
I saw Christopher Nolan's latest Dunkirk on the first day of my holidays. Wasn't too sure whether it would be a bit grim and was pretty disappointed with Nolan after Interstellar. However, it was a brilliant film experience.
One of the LOUDEST films with an insistent music score that ramped up the tension throughout. Visceral and visually and emotionally involving. Not one I'd rush to see again as it was full on and tense experience but one of Nolan's best films.
It tells the story of the rescue of thousands of British troops trapped on the beach at Dunkirk. We follow the story in the air with Tom Hardy in his Spitfire, on the sea with Mark Rylance and on the beaches with a bunch of young desperate soldiers.
There is lots of relentless drama and melodrama and it is quite exhausting!
