Dunkirk (2017)
8/10
A unique mission brought to life by a unique filmmaker
21 January 2022
There's so much to admire about this film that is plain to see. It's an historical mission in the timeline of the Second World War that is brought to life by Christopher Nolan's monumental filmmaking.

The cinematography from Hoyte van Hoytema is truly exceptional and beyond realism in stages. The camerawork was so immersive that it made the viewing experience considerably riveting. The shot of the solider lying down as the bomb explosions came nearer and nearer to him is arguably the best shot in war film history. Incredible filmmaking from one of cinemas mighty directors.

People may criticise the film for whatever reason, but Dunkirk is a masterful film that will be appreciated the more you watch it. I still consider The Dark Knight Nolan's Everest. But Dunkirk has climbed high.
