as that has been very well done in other films (paraphrasing his words).

He wanted to tell the story.

Dunkirk worth seeing?

Dunkirk was incredible.

No.

Baron

Care to elaborate?

I would rank them WW, Apes, Spidey, Dunkirk... but all are worth it.

Have you seen Dunkirk?

Sandy Lyle

7/21/17 8:38am

This better be a bad joke

Backcountry

7/21/17 9:34am

Or a countdown

cougaman

Would you put Apes ahead of WW? Or Spidey as #1? Or you don't think all 4 are

BYUtka

7/21/17 9:48am

Dunkirk, maybe apes if you you are really bored. Grown men shouldn't publicly

Backcountry

7/21/17 9:51am

Oh, you are one of those silly comic book movie haters. You have my pity.

BYUtka

7/21/17 9:57am

I am. Unabashed comic book and nerd shamer

Backcountry

7/21/17 10:06am

That isn't something to be proud of.

BYUtka

7/21/17 10:16am

I was shocked how much I liked WW and it wasn't because Gal Gadot is the most

I am generally a DC hater, but WW was really fun/good.

This guy complained about the lack of strong female and minority roles in it

SMH. Does he even understand what the movie was about??

Don't we all know Eva Braun was behind the Nazis decision for the Wehrmacht to pause & let the Luftwaffe take over?

SpiffCoug

7/21/17 8:43am

To be fair, he used 1/2 a sentence to mention it. Weird thing to even think

Byron McNertney

He simultaneousl trigger-warns SJW knee-jerks & provokes conservative knee-jerks

ColoSpgs

Well my guess is there weren't many, if any "women or people of color"....

CoachSpeak

7/21/17 9:09am

You just got triggered despite his two-sentence disclaimer. Good job.

messi

7/21/17 10:07am

Lighten up, messi. It was a joke.

cheezedawg

7/21/17 10:09am

so pointing out the stupidity of modern leftists is being "triggered"?

CoachSpeak

7/21/17 10:56am

Is this your first interaction with messi? He's fun.

The Board Genius

7/21/17 11:04am

No, although I've kept them minimal....

CoachSpeak

7/21/17 11:08am

Meh, I was hoping it would be R instead of stupid PG-13. Way to dumb down the realism.

Saving Private Ryan was lame

Frank Castiglione

7/21/17 8:50am

According to our family friend who landed on D-Day at Juno Beach the only thing

CanuckUte

7/21/17 10:06am

I didn't say the first part was unrealistic. Just unnecessary and over the top

Frank Castiglione

7/21/17 10:35am

One of the big reasons I loved Hacksaw Ridge so much was that it actually toned

Byron McNertney

7/21/17 11:00am

Yeah Churchill looks amazing, can't wait.

Windward_Coug

7/21/17 8:57am

I dunno, too many spoilers already leaked

spinner

7/21/17 8:47am

Plus we already know who won the war, so sheesh, where's the drama?

I saw it last night. I liked it, but was also underwhelmed at the same time.

HingleMcCringleberry

7/21/17 8:51am

yes, absolutely

I'd be more creative with your date night in the summer and do something

Mayor of Cougartown

7/21/17 9:11am

It's ok but not a date night movie IMO

mosterlow

7/21/17 9:26am

Saw last night. I give it a 7 out of 10. It was fine. Just know the pacing is

Turbine

7/21/17 9:33am

Currently a 9.0 on IMDB only 4 other movies in the top 250 have 9 rank

stealth

7/21/17 9:38am

That however will drop, as all new movies do.

Turbine

Dissonant violins like "There will be blood." Lots of action but little story.

el capitan

7/21/17 9:40am

Sounds awesome then

Vulture ranks it the best Christopher Nolan movie but I haven't seen it yet.
