Dunkirk. Christopher Nolan throws his creative hat into the WWII ring and finds his mark. This is a master blend of directing, cinematography, and editing. Most action flicks are edited to death and slathered with heavy music cues, most often trying to compensate for lack of emotion or urgency. I did think the Hans Zimmer score was heavy in spots, but his music is so badass I didn't really care.
The aerial "dogfights" are the real star here. Stunning wide shots that are allowed to play out. It feels real.
Only a couple of drawbacks for me. I didn't really know anything about Dunkirk when I went in, and I'm not sure I learned anything from the movie. It could've explained itself a bit better. Also, from the trailer I thought it was gonna be an all out Nazi onslaught where nobody would survive. The movie, while threatening, felt much less dire than I expected.
I do suggest checking it out on 70mm if you have the means. It looks ****ing awesome. 3.5/4.
