    Where "overrated" means "I enjoyed it less than most people", that'd
    apply for me to not just DUNKIRK but every Nolan except THE PRESTIGE...

    Dunkirk was a frightfully small film on a loop, with classic
    British bigotry like making the Irishman a coward responsible
    for the boy's death. And there were massive continuity issues
    like the over-the-top loud gunfire in the beginning which
    miraculously turned quieter or the bombs that kill everyone
    within 100 yards and are safe from 15 feet, depending on when
    they are used.

    But the problem with Dunkirk was it was just plain a bad film.
    It should never have been made. Some films are made bad,
    some films can't be good no matter who makes them and
    Dunkirk was one of them.


    ...a tiny, historically inaccurate film on a loop.

    Plain BAD!

    It was just a crappy film that I actually recommended it to
    people that I don't like! I wanted them to waste their money.
    I wanted them to grow more than 100 minutes closer to
    death in front of that swill.
