It's really not that surprising if you know what the movie is about. You guys might have the wrong idea of what this movie is. It's not a big epic battle. It's about the evacuation of stranded British soldiers after they got surrounded.
Nolan himself said it's not a war movie, because it's not depicting any combat. From what I've read of the screenplay being described, you don't even get to see any Germans in the movie. It's a ticking-clock suspense movie about soldiers trying to run away before the Germans can stop them.
I think this will be excellent.
Battle, evacuation. Potato, potatoe.Quote:

I just can't muster interest for this.
I have little interest in war movies as it is, but this looks particularly drab and boring.
Radio show read my tweet on air about potato cannons today.
I'm still here with you on this.Quote:

And would you believe they're unanimously glowing?
One said the movie is akin to a silent pic, most seem to agree it is best seen on an IMAX screen. One said that you don't really grow attached to the characters (possibly reinforcing the more docu feel the trailers have revealed rather than a ratata men on a mission epic with stars that stand out like a sore thumb). Tom Hardy has about 10 lines. Which might be less than Schwarzenegger in The Terminator.
Reviews are out. This is scoring really high. 28 reviews, 9/10 average rating.
Not few are calling it Nolan's best.
98% on Metacritic. LADS, PREPARE TO GET NOLAN'D! W H O O O O M P ! ! ! ! !
Haha, apparently Nolan's masterpiece is the one that's his shortest, has almost none of his dialogue, and has a straightforward story based on a true event.
I expect a couple weeks of wildly ecstatic reviews followed by months (years?) of backlash mostly supported by arduous nitpicking.

I don't know, half of the video essays on YouTube are appraisals of his films. Depending on the circles you frequent, he's considered a god of cinema.Quote:
