Where did the budget go? We saw a few hundred men and a dozen boats and a couple of aircraft. Where was the story of the battalions fighting the rear-guard in the towns so those hundreds of thousands on the beaches could line-up to be rescued?

Survivors of two battalions fighting the rear-guard that had to surrender to the SS, were then murdered by the SS...where was that story?

There were some heroic moments in the events leading up to evacuation of Dunkirk. All we got was a few aerial dogfights and half-arsed attempts to leave a dock. Far too much time spent on a few young guys trying anything to get off a beach.

Don't get me started on the annoying soundtrack.
