66/100
3 groups of individuals - some fighter pilots, a private boat owner, and a group of soldiers trying to get out - during the evacuation of Dunkirk. Very realistic in its depiction as to what it must have been like but, for me, that's also its problem as it tries to hard to capture the drama of the people to the distraction of what's going on. This made it feel somewhat lethargic and I expected far more tension. Also, I found that presenting it in a non-linear fashion was quite jarring ...nighttime in one scene, daylight the next, back to night, etc. It's really good but not a big hit for me. --DrNostromo.com

I thought the the original Dunkirk released in 1958 with John Mills and Richard Attenborough was much, much superior and portrayed both the breadth and depth of what was both a disaster and a triumph infinitely better than this.
