Nope (2022)
DONT WATCH THE FIRST SCENE for a better film!
We saw this at the cinema and we arrived late so missed the opening scene. The first scene we saw was the father and son on the ranch with the horse. As a result the mystery and sense of foreboding that builds surrounding the child actor grew and grew until an unforgettable 3rd act reveal.
If we'd seen the opening scene, the film would have lacked the deeper suspense and intrigue. So, if you plan to watch it, consider skipping the first scene on your first viewing. You can always watch it as the director intended the second time round but once you know, you won't forget.
Please let me know if you agree by uprating :)
Dunkirk (2017)
Plotless, repetitive and unimpressive
Such a disappointing film. After deciding to watch Darkest Hour first, I was prepared for the epic scale of achievement and some of the interesting storylines. This film disappointed on almost every level. It had real planes and boats and men but even with a massive budget, without CGI, you cant come close to the scale required.
This resulted in the story being repeated from different story angles so the big set pieces and limited aircraft/boats could be shot from additional angles. This was just repetitive, confusing and a big market for the small scale at which this film was made. Similarly, the lines ofem on the beach and the flotilla were both underwhelming. It gave the impression of a small skirmish with a near non-existent German force.
