As much as I love Nolan, I kind of agree with this. It wasn’t even the best Dunkirk movie that year.

Those two movies coming out in close proximity was really weird, especially with the "tell the story in 3 time scales"

Agreed. I wanted to love it, but outside of the effects, which were amazing at the time, it’s a mediocre movie, IMO.

Yup, plus Inglorious... and Pulp Fiction. Reservoir Dogs was great though.
