Dunkirk is the true story about British, French, and Belgium soldiers that are trapped on the beach of Dunkirk waiting for rescue, while the German empire surrounds them.

First off, this movie is beautifully filmed. The cinematography alone is worth seeing. The places they chose to film were great and fitted the movie perfectly. Even though there is hardly any Character development in this movie, everyone did a good job. The action was also a pretty awesome strength to the movie. The ship battles and the dogfights were great and very well filmed. Easily the best part of the movie (for me) was the soundtrack and the sounds. The soundtrack made the movie feel so tense and epic. And also the Guns, planes, bombs, and explosions sounded very realistic. It made you feel like you were actually there.

So overall i enjoyed this movie for what it was; but that being said, it is very overrated and not the masterpiece everyone says it is.

When i first heard that Christopher Nolan (the director of one of my favorite movies The Dark Knight) was directing this movie, i was so hyped and had huge expectations. But sadly not all of them were met. I wanted the movie to have some ground battles but they were mostly in the air or in the ocean. I wanted solid characters but the entire movie is dedicated to the battle. The movie does drag sometimes and its not always interesting. Before i saw this movie i saw an ocean of positive reviews, some saying that this is one of the best war movies ever made. But after seeing it myself, i was not agreeing.

In the end, I did find myself enjoying Dunkirk but it is overrated. Its not "The Best Movie Of The Year" nor "The best War Movie Ever Created". Its a solid and accurate movie on a real life event. I'm giving it a 7/10 or a solid B.
