            Actually, if many of the posters here don't hivemind, I can see how the concept of the movie (selflessly risking oneself to help others from one's country, simply because) would make no sense. The point wouldn't be "I should help these people because they are I". It would only make sense if you'd all been trauma bonded by an NCO and were being shot by people who are evil.

    This right here is unironically Nolan's only good film, I roll my eyes everytime I see him write actual characters, his idea of adding depth is basically just adding a woman &/or a child in the man's life and having his motivation be based around either protecting them or getting revenge.
    the only good Nolan film is one where there's no characters.

    Dunkirk is literally and unironically the best Nolan film since Memento.
    It's the first Nolan film without the usual Nolan flaws (no constant shoved exposition, no overwritten dialogue, no too complex storyline, no poor close quarter choreography) seems like he finally listened to all of the critiques.
    Pure visual storytelling, The Wages of Fear in a war setting. Also one of the better theater experiences of recent times.

        It absolutely does. The first 20 minutes or so of Dunkirk is probably the best storytelling bit Nolan has done in a film, ever.
        It sets the tone and the narrative right away, establishes the character, you know what he is doing and why, you are given historical context with the french and all that without a single line of dialogue, purely by visuals. Visual storytelling.

        You can watch that all on mute and get the narrative completely, the silent film inspiration meme Nolan always mentions is actually pretty clear here.
        >The one 5 min scene from the other Dunkirk movie shows more through its visual storytelling than this whole entire shitty nolan movie.
        Shoving 500 things in one frame to make a le epic one take isn't visual storytelling. It's Inarritu tier masturbation, not actual storytelling.

              I get that it's Cinemaphile or whatever, but I have developed more peace from accepting that most people are moronic, and if I read a blatantly wrong opinion, it might be worth elaborating my own opinion to improve the rest of the audience's understanding, but I doubt that insulting the person who isn't getting it will do much other than hurt their feelings.

              I do wonder if part of what makes the film hard to parse for some people here is that 'coid culture tends to focus on "goodies" and "baddies". The sense of the tragic is removed. They need "bad" and "good" characters/teams. Or at least teams clearly recognisable as the good guys and the bad guys, and then the good guys fight the bad guys to win. And Dunkirk is more about escaping from cruelty and wretchedness and war themselves than trying to "win".

        Ahhh I see, so you are just a plot point mental midget. Makes sense now.

        If that homosexual is talking about the Atonement long take then I'll back you up by saying it's pure plebbit meant to trick mental midgets who think "le ebic long takes" is high brow filmmaking. It was so pointless even critics who usually swallow shit like this as a whole called it out.
        >In one long shot, the camera holds on Robbie as he trudges past soldiers who shoot their horses (so the Nazis won’t get them), sundry bonfires, a man working out on a pommel horse, and a corpse. Then the camera leaves him and picks its way among other bedraggled soldiers, lingers for a bit with a choir in a gazebo, finds Robbie again atop a hill, and pulls back to show the whole beach littered with men and debris and even a distant Ferris wheel. It probably took days to rehearse and was celebrated with crates of beer and lots of backslapping, but it has nothing to do with what the movie’s about. It stops a show that needed to keep going.
        >Wow, that's quite a tracking shot,' when it should be 'My God, what a horrible experience that must have been
        >For instance, everyone spent that year talking about the famous tracking shot in atonement, but to hulk it's the perfect example of not understanding the larger point. The shot is beautiful. It swoons with grace. It shows off an incredibly complex environment. But there's, like, no real meaning to the story and characters beyond what we get in the first five seconds.
        It's literal dishonest filmmaking. The worst part is it makes the soldiers look undisciplined. All those long queues in Dunkirk while not "epic" is what Dunkirk more or less looked like. In Atonement, during the opening shot of the beach the soldiers are organized but in the long take all that is thrown in the garbage because they wanted to emphasize the "chaos".

      Nolan used his character to show the juxtaposition of a senseless and pointless death of the boy with the senseless and pointless deaths of the soldiers on the other side. To show what stoicism is with the Rylance's son saying to the shellshocked soldier that the boy is alright. To show that in war old men get young men to die for them.
      To show that not all "war heroes" are the usual true heroes we all imagine them to be because more people will remember George who didn't even see the war, while all those soldiers bombed/torpedoed on the other side just became a mere statistic.

      Also without George, Cillian Murphy would've overtaken the boat and all those boys would never be saved from the oil spill fire.

      It's in a way admirable decision imo. His reasons were.
      >Director Christopher Nolan said he didn't want to make "something that wasn't relevant to today's audiences." He not only didn't want to show generals and admirals pushing toy armies around a large table, but he didn't want to get "bogged down in the politics of the situation," either.
      I'm a foreigner. So here's my perspective on the whole matter. Hollywood has made the Nazis the eternal threat. They're easy hateable villains in movies and the audience and western society is constantly kept in fear of their return. It's constantly reminded of the horros they caused. So much so their presence easily overwhelms whatever other themes the movies themselves might have.

    How can anybody defend this movie is beyond me.
    Not a single memorable scene, or a line of dialogue.
    People in it seemed more like lifeless dolls, or props, than people, zero attachment to anybody through the whole film.

      Doesn't sound like Brits at all.

    Nothing. It's one of Nolan's best, if not his best.

    I went to see this movie with my dad in theaters... We joked that because it was a british movie we would need subtitles...

    I didn't understand a fricking word in that movie.

    Tom Hardy finally taking off the mask (did he die?) is literally the most kino moment Nolan has ever filmed

    Nothing. It was Nolan's best flick since TDK.
