Other movies have been tedious, boring, and confusing. This one made me mad. Wasted subject. Wasted time. Wasted money.

Dunkirk has neither mind nor spirit. It is an empty piece of trash put together by a team without understanding or the slightest familiarity with the dynamics of men and machinery involved.

The list could be long: boats that instantly turn on their sides when hit, men who can survive under water, a plane that defies gravity, ammunition that never runs out, young men in combat who seem more like observers than participants, mature men in leadership who can only stare.

Some have praised Hans Zimmer's score. What score? Nothing but two or three monotones sustained indefinitely while their waveforms are tweaked. Any kid with a synth could produce such stuff in a few minutes. The other part of the "score" consists of a pulse-like sound, played accelerando to give an impression of increasing tension. This was repeated several times. Cheap. Easy. And he got paid for this.

No need to say more. A great film never needs to be explained or defended.
