    Reviews have been really good, but with war movies it hard to tell.

    I will see it at some point. I tend to like Nolan films.

    Wow!!! Great reviews from 34 critics so far. Funny that the one bad review was from Slate which is a hard left winger. Maybe if it had some Gays or drugs they would have given it good reviews.

    I saw it today. Its different. Its not Saving Private Ryan or Fury but more about survival and ordinary people steppin up. The air battle scenes over the beaches are epic and very realistic though. . Worth $11i. Very limited if any CGI

    I heard the sound track was really, really loud. Enough so that dialogue and some of the explosions are obscured? I hate really loud movies and cold theaters.

    My daughter works at Stihl Outdoor Equipment. They sell ear protection. I understand where you're coming from, I'm always waking up during the battle scenes.

    Wall Street Journal review says that unfortunately, it got the Hollywood creative facts treatment.

    Saw it yesterday. Not a fan. Too many stories going on at one time and failed at continuity. It was a rough time for them, no doubt. It will stir your hearts towards anyone
    who has ever been at war. And it was a bit rough following some of the dialogue.

    I loved it. Everyone I went with loved it. It's one of those movies that sticks with you long after you leave.

    dcjudge is spot on. My wife and I saw Dunkirk last night. The dive-bombing scenes and others were too loud for us. There were too many story-lines occurring at the same time. Back and forth between story-lines. The dialogue was DIFFICULT to understand. The music seemed to completely drown out the sounds of battle that were occurring. It was a good movie. I like WWII movies that cast actors that I'm unfamiliar with because it removes some of the "Hollywood" from the movie. The movie left me needing much more.
