It's funny how Hollywood pushes for token multiculturalism even if it makes its own movies historically inaccurate.

Through what way of transmission have you finally been able to see this mediocre movie? And in what desert do you live? Just curious.

Dunkirk, meh.

I don't think there was enough story to make a movie. Felt slow and too many moments they tried to make dramatic but you just didn't care.

Hmm, was gonna see that because Nolan movies are usually cinematic spectacles. Hold off for BR?

Oh, that cinematics were great. I don't regret going.

I went to see it just because it was Christoper Nolan. Maybe my expectations were too high. I will probably give it a second chance when it comes to BR.

It had that intense background score like with the dark knight. That felt a little weird at times in a WWII movie. It tried to drive some of the dramatic scenes but I wasn't feeling it.

Post your thoughts if you go.

A cool video about Shepard Tones which are prevalent in Nolan movies.

Cars 3. Pretty good, basically the movie Cars 2 should've been, properly dealing with Doc Hudson's absence.

Outstanding graphics, the beach scene and birds eye view of a forest made me look twice to see if they weren't using real life footage :o

Uses the tired trilogy trope of carbon copying scenes from the first movie in an attempt to.. yank nostalgia chains I guess? The movie became weaker because of it.
