Very good German review pointing at the complexity and inner intricacy of the movie. Also that the movie is very precisely arranged and composed. Have not seen it myself so far, but got the imprerssion it is m ore about the experince of time passing during battle, than about narrating a story or explaining characters. If so, the way the figures are described with a distance is intentional.

I rated it up there with the likes of Hacksaw Ridge but couldn't help but laugh at the flack (no pun intended) it attracted around PC.

For the record: My father was there and I still remember many of the stories of his real life experiences.

I loved the way it didnt use dialog to to explain a scene. The film has a way of keeping you very tense until the very end...

If you are looking for a Saving Private Ryan style movie, then go somewhere else.

I haven't seen it yet but the movie is garnering excellent reviews.

The movie seems to use some interesting sub-conscious and/or unorthodox techniques, I read, from Shepard tones (LINK) to the omnipresent ticking of Nolans very own watch that can be heared, I read, from the first to the last second of the movie, constantly, although the action most of the time drowns it - but it is nevertheless there.

Nolan is one of my favourite directors of the present. Inception was solid and original entertainment, the Batman trilogy imo is simply brilliant story narrating, and Interstellar is - I cannot really nail it and cannot precisely explain why I am fascinated, but I have seen that film four times now within just a few months.

They sure were Eddie but nothing like his experiences at Normandy on D-Day.

Churchill famously asserted at the time that no war was ever won by evacuation... but he couldn't see ahead to the Bomber Command/US 8th Air Force campaign and subsequent Allied invasion. So would anyone disagree if I say that he got that wrong?
