Missing it when it was at the cinema and now I've finally got to see Dunkirk, the Christopher Nolan directed was movie about the evacuation of the British Expedition Forces from the shores of France fleeing the advancing German Army. That's the historical context.

The movie is a little disjointed due to the juxtaposition of differing time scales and stories... This does work in creating a build up of tension and gives sense of the magnitude and scale of the rescue mission.

A good film although, a bit too jingoistic for me, but then it would have to be. 7/10
