DUNKIRK: intense! 3 intercutting stories on 3 time frames. Almost a silent film, w/ incredible score. May be divisive. I LOVED. See 70mm!

Welp. Didn't know this.

 

[Diprosalic]

I haven't enjoyed a Nolan movie since TDK. Cautiously optimistic.

 

[Inferno313]

Welp. Didn't know this.

That sounds really cool.

 

[JCHandsom]

Beaten.

 

[Rktk]

Early reviews tend to be the ones lavishing the most praise.

 

[strafer]

Feels like the friendzone topic on gaf is spreading the cringe all around us

huh?

 

[The Jazz Cabbage Master]

I love Nolan and Zimmer. Day 1

 

[sems4arsenal]

Probably going to be my first IMAX experience.

 

[Charcoal]

ALL OVER MY CHEST, CHRIS! ALL OVER IT!

 

[jcutner]

Got my IMAX 70mm tickets!!

 

[shadowkat]

I'm now way more interested in this with the run time and limited dialogue.

 

[Nev]

Another masterpiece by Nolan I guess. Unsurprised and day one.

 

[wachie]

Still trust Nolan though.. He hasn't let me down yet but I'm struggling to get hyped beyond his name

[Saya]

Comparisons to silent movies only hype me up more.

Nolan delivered again.

 

[Kraftwerk]

How is this anything but exciting news?

 

[Ninja Scooter]

DM we did it!

My ass can take the pain

 

[lightskintwin]

I kept saying I knew this film would be an awards season contender.

 

[ZeroX03]

The streak continues. I'm there in IMAX.

 

[DMczaf]

When you're on the Nolan Express, you're always doing it.

 

[Messofanego]

I don't know or trust any of these people in the OP, so I'll wait for critics' impressions from David Ehrlich, Guy Lodge, Peter Bradshaw, and Mark Kermode instead.

You think it can, CGP. You think it can.

Stephen Whitty (NJ Star Ledger) and Jake Coyle (AP) are 'Top Critics' on RT, so it's not all total no-namers. Nonetheless, still being cautious on how good the film is.

 

[SeanC]

Seeing it this week, was a little on the fence but some of these blurbs make it sound more intriguing than I originally assumed.

I don't follow Jake Coyle, but I'm more concerned by Collider, Fandango, and Kevin McCarthy (he does great interviews, but kind of a brown noser).

Yeah I just tend to disregard the three you mentioned.

 

[WaterAstro]

I want to see how it stacks up with Saving Private Ryan with my own eyes. Looking forward to it.

Sounds like it's going for something very different. If you go in expecting another Saving Private Ryan I'm gunna guess that you'll end up disappointed.

 

[Courage]

Almost a silent film

this got my interest piqued more than ever before since his scripts are mostly trash

 

[effzee]

Early reviews tend to be the ones lavishing the most praise.

Yeah exactly don't trust them! You have to watch a movie 10 times, freeze frame every scene, catch the extras doing something unscripted, catch the fake punches, and then you can truly judge a movie.

 

[ShadowKingpin]

So fucking ready!!!!

 

[Jigolo]

Nolan's first movie had very little dialogue as well if I'm remembering correctly... the black and white one

 

[WaterAstro]

Nah, just want to compare the quality of war movies. Doesn't need to be a documentary-like movie like Spielberg's style.

As long as it brings the intensity and feels.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

damn mild spoilers didn't know it was nonlinear


So in for this. Sounds like IMAX it is too

 

[Random Human]

A Nolan movie with little dialogue sounds like a positive, since that's one of his weaknesses.

 

[Messofanego]

How is this anything but exciting news?

Remember people's confusion at Mad Max Fury Road, Drive, and basically any film with not much dialogue? Some people really need everything spelt out for them in words rather than visuals

 

[Realeza]

The GOAT is back.

 

[Ridley327]

I mean, non-linear is kind of Nolan's thing. Honestly, I can think of only The Dark Knight and The Dark Knight Rises as having straightforward progression. Everything else he's done has been very much playing around with time as a storytelling tool. I'm definitely interested to see how he's done it here, which I don't think the impressions go into that much detail about.

 

[Dead]

The sample of Zimmers score that got released is pretty strong.

 

[zsynqx]

The thing about this film is it very consciously veers away from character development. It's very in-the-moment kinda filmmaking

I liked that, tho. In this situation, soldiers & rescuers were all thrown together. No one really knew anyone. It was all about survival

So don't expect some 20-min monologue about some girl some dude has back home. No time for that. It's all go! go! go! Now RUN!

Interesting.

 

[TheGameshark]

Nolan da gawd

 

[bananafactory]

Apparently Tom Hardy speaks only 10 lines in the film.
