It was one of the most intense movies I've seen in theaters in a long time. As other people have said, most of the "action" takes place off screen but the entire movie is filled with a sense of danger and foreboding. The constant ticking in the soundtrack and the loudness of every gunshot kept me on edge. The target practice scene, in particular, had me holding my breath. I did have some difficulty hearing some of the dialogue over all the other sound in the movie. I'm not sure if that was a sound mixing issue or an accent issue, but I wish the film had subtitles. Also, the toast and jam looked absolutely delicious. QuoProQuid fucked around with this message at 03:43 on Jul 23, 2017 |

I'm also a little confused by the suggestions that the movie glorifies war. Whether it be in the drowning of several dozen soldiers who are trapped below deck of a rescue vessel, the terrible end of "Gibson," or the PTSD of Cillian Murphy's character, the movie makes it clear that war is a nasty and brutish thing. I think "survival is enough" encapsulates this movie's attitude toward conflict. There's really no glory, except that (some of) the characters managed to make it through another day.Casimir Radon posted:Nolan should make a movie about the Blitz. Maybe he wants to do something else adter all the work that went into this but that's what I want to see. You missed the entire opening of "The Mole," where the British private's friends are gunned down and he meets up with "Gibson," who he sees looting and burying a corpse. You might have also missed some exposition about the Royal Navy commandeering civilian vessels. QuoProQuid fucked around with this message at 23:18 on Jul 24, 2017 |
