This movie is so great the first time you watch it. You can feel the emotion and struggle that the soldiers went through in Dunkirk. BUT when you watch it the second time you can see the foreshadowing that you missed the first time and it makes the movie 1000 times better. If you are confused after the first watch, have no fear and watch again. You will not regret this at all. A masterpiece.

I'm glad that Charles Lightoller, 2nd mate of the Titanic, was portrayed as Mr. Dawson. Lightoller did indeed carry 127 British servicemen to safety at Dunkirk, with his son and a local Sea Scout. I found this a very fine movie.

The movie does really well in captivating the suffocating atmosphere, chaos and struggle against time with an ever nearing enemy, culminating in the evacuation of the army. It does so right from start to end and never relents. Do not expert an action packed war movie tough, that is not the point of it.

[...] "Throughout the film Nolan creates an almost claustrophobic feeling of uneasiness and an overwhelming sense of helplessness is always present. No one feels safe, no matter what their rank is and how important or not they are. There isn't any safe places, enemies might attack at any moment and there's suspense from the first minute to the last. Two of the elements that help create a constant tenseness and suspense is the cinematography and music. Instead of relying on dialogue, it's a film with little dialogue and sometimes there are scenes that play out for several minutes without audible dialogue - something that isn't too usual in today's big budget commercial cinema. Which is both a bold and interesting choice in my opinion. Sometimes, just like in real life, facial expressions, body language and actions can speak louder than words."
