Dunkirk

My mistake. I did not like it as much as I thought cause I did not see it in IMAX
So I made the mistake of not seeing this movie on an IMAX or a 70mm screen. The problem with that is that Chris Nolan set this film up for Imax so much that it did not fit any other screen properly and I could not get over the fact that the movie was not on the full screen and I’m now biased.

I’m gonna have to be convinced to see it again cause from what I saw I got nothing. I see other people who saw it in it’s true experience and were talking about how visually amazing it was. I could see that, I did love the scenes with the dog fighters. I liked how the music combined with the visual to make for this intense feel. The motion of the picture was like one big War Scene, which seems cool.

Not much of a story overall. There was one fully developed subplot of a father who lost his son in the war who help out the boys of Dunkirk by lending his boat to the rescue. It was a real touching and dramatic story which also involved Cillian Murphy, but it’s weird that the story does not take up that much of the movie because the other stories were not as fulfilling.

What I’m seeing here is that Nolan is pulling a Micheal Bay going for a more visual masterpiece without much story. I don’t want to be too hard and judgmental without seeing it the way Nolan designed to be seen, but it does suck that the only way I can really enjoy the film is to see it in IMAX.

So see it in Imax I guess.
