Movie Review: ***Dunkirk (2017)

This is a big movie, but in the end, trying to tell too many stories made for a jumbled mess.  Their were air force shots, Navy stories and Army stories.  However at times it was night and then day and then night, and it seems the stories didn't go in sequence, and it was confusing.  However, the point that came across is that at Dunkirk there were people helping people in a desperate situation, and in many instances they sacrificed their own lives.  The story starts a week into the surrounding of Dunkirk, and the Allied forces being hemmed in.  The stories are very compelling, that a a French Soldier trying to get out of Dunkirk, a family and their smaller vessel helping rescue soldiers, and a pilot who uses all his fuel shooting down that last plane, before he is captured by the Germans.  That the British were able to rescue so many, proved to be a turning point.  However this movie shows that many did not make it.  It seems ship after ship was being sunk.  The small boats were really the turning point.
