Saw it yesterday.
Yeah the 3 stories don't take place at the same time, you have to read the captions at the beginning, one is over a week, one a day, and one an hour. 3 separate stories in one. 
Watch on the biggest screen with the best sound system you can. The music score is as epic as the action. Enjoy. |

It baffles me that people do this. The film is offered in so many different cinema formats; 70mm, 35mm, IMAX. Watching a crappy pirated copy doesn't compare. |

2.50 is that the cost of a ticket? Where? Feck 10euro each here but still worth every penny certain films need to be seen in the cinema |

I get what you are saying and I won't watch a crappy pirate copy, will wait for it to come out properly. But I find cinemas a mostly unpleasant experience, too loud, with the disgusting smells and weird distractions of other people using phones, rustling food etc.
Would probably make the effort more if there were good films, but over the last dozen years I can't think of any that were worth seeing. |

Yep. Just watched it tonight.
I think it's one of the best films I've seen for a while
Minimal dialogue. Visceral visual story-telling and the three concurrently running plots really add to the crescendo of the films pace.
Very similar to Nolan's past pacing of the multi-levelled inception plotlines |

If you don't think that it's worth the price then you shouldn't be watching it at all. Seeing films is a luxury, not a necessity.

I don't think you're looking hard enough. Look beyond the multiplexes and see what's being played at independent theatres. I've seen about 5 or so this year alone which I would happily have paid twice to see. |

I go at times when I know it won't be busy. Sick of people talking through films. Ignorant arses. |

I've never really had this issue, but I do try and go to multiplexes when it's quiet. Small cinemas are pretty good for respectful clients. |

So if people can't afford it or unable to get to the cinema for whatever reason they should not see it?
I've never heard such drivel in my life  |

Weird.
Did not like it. At all. AT ALL. Which still has me confused as I live Nolan films. They're among my favourite ever. And a good war film often ends up being great.
This though did nothing for me. Zero. Nada. Felt as if nothing at all happens. |

Why? Is the idea of paying for goods and services alien to you?
If you can't afford it, or can't get to the cinema. Then wait for the DVD or streaming release. |

It's a different take on the war film genre.
If you go in expecting saving private Ryan style action you're going to be very disappointed.
I think the way it was filmed was perfect, it captured what Dunkirk was perfectly.
The dark undertones and the music was flawless for setting the scene without cramming it full of dialogue to tell the story. |

The French rear guard action at Dunkirk has always been under played by the British, the old French retreat jokes are not really true, the British sacrificed alot to keep the French in the war fighting while the French were under the impression that Germany would soon "ring the British chickens neck" prompting Churchills famous reply "some chicken, some neck".  |

You really hit the nail on the head there. It wasn't overly dramatised or glorified, it was a very honest film. |

Just seen it and its a cracking film Nolan has captured the desolation of how the troops must of felt on the beach.
My only one criticism is i found Hans zimmers score a little overbearing and claustrophobic at times.
But saying that with out giving to much away his sublime take of Elgar nimrod combined with Churchill's we will never surrender speech was perfect. |
