I love Nolan. 4 of my top 10 films of all time are Nolan films, so when I went to the theater for an opening night showing for Dunkirk yeah I had high expectations. After seeing the RT score I thought for sure this would be kino
The film is literally British Propaganda
Every single character is British. Literally the only person who's not British is a French boy who steals the dog-tag from a dead Englishman to get on a boat. Yes that's right, the army holding the line against the Wehrmacht so that the British army can form neat queues in the sand is given barely a passing mention. Of course thats all assuming you could count anyone in this movie as a "character" at all. Not a single one has any more depth than a single defining characteristic. There's patriotic guy, PTSD guy, ace pilot guy, posh officer guy, French coward guy, and of course bland audience self-insert guy. One note characters can be made to work if they're acted well and given interesting situations to work with but there just aren't any.
I actually look back worse on Nolan's other films knowing that he's a big enough hack to crap out something like this. I should have listened /tv/. I should have listened
>Every single character is British.
It's a film about British soldiers in WWII, you fucking stupid person.
>fucking stupid people will be the death of us all

You're mad that a movie about the evacuation of the British army was about the British army?
What did you expect?
>>85239369
>Jamal is mad because his ancestors never made an actual contribution to the world
The truth hurts
>>85239369
So, it is the same storyline, or is it actually different stories?
Is a motorboat as fast as a spitfire?
This is bait to make people who wan't to believe its real hate people who feel this way even more. Don't be an idiot.

Guess that had to do it somewhere, lord knows they weren't doing it in the Ardennes.

>4 of my top 10 films of all time are Nolan films
>dismisses Dunkirk as propaganga
You have to go back
>>85239369
Your literally the type of moron that I'd here saying the movie wasn't diverse enough
Das some nice bait mane.
I'm seeing the IMAX 15/70mm later. What am I in for?
>>85244477
Dubs, with some trips on the side
>>85244477
You're in for the best cinema experience of recent times, maybe even ever.
>>85244477
a decent movie you won't even remember next week
>>85245909
I'm pretty sure /tv/ will talk about this film for years and years.
Interstellar was released 3 years ago and we still have daily Interstellar threads, and that film was not even that good.
You literally see the french army holding off the germans in the first five minutes.
You literally see the british officer guy berating the fact that no french people are being rescued.
You literally see british soldiers refusing access to french soldiers.
You literally see a french kid saving a whole ship full of british soldiers.

>I love Nolan. 4 of my top 10 films of all time are Nolan films
This is obviously bait. And terrible bait at that.
How dumb is /tv/ that they would fall for this bait.
>>85239369
How strong is american cringe in this one?
Is it watchable for average euro?
>>85247035
What? It's a british production with a full white brit cast and a british director, zero americans in it.
>>85239369
Literally his best film.
The pacing and development of the events in the movie were all over the place. Made it feel like some sort of avant garde student film.
