I don't know why this movie got ANY user reviews above 5 ... There was absolutely no plot development and very little character development.

The score (shepard scale) was a droning never ending headache inducing annoying noise.

To compare this film with Saving Private Ryan is beyond ridiculous.

The story of what actually happened at Dunkirk during WWII is not told in this piece. So much more could have been told. l would venture to say that a majority of those born after 1950 have NO IDEA of the scope of the Dunkirk Rescue and the events leading up to it.

This picture does a DISSERVICE to those who lost their lives during this failed operation.

In closing I can only say that I do not know which was the greater disaster, the actual event, or the film depicting it!
