Dunkirk [4K UHD + Digital Download] [Blu-ray] [2017] [Region Free]

Amazing movie. Very stressful, suspenseful, eerie. Not much dialog. F word twice. Very well done.

Everything worked out great - no problems with this order!!!

good movie

Pictures shows the product with a slipcover but isn’t right

What I liked a lot about Nolan's film was its grim portrayal of the arbitrariness of death on the battlefield that come come from any direction at any time. It showed how random and scary and awful it must be to be under threat of bullets...Stuka divebombers...torpedoes... artillery. It also nicely showed the grim lot of an army in defeat. Beautifully, yet unsentimentally shot on giant Imax cameras. (A 54 pound handheld camera, yikes!) Enjoyed the extras a lot, too. Did you know that many of the small boats shown actually took part in the real Dunkirk evacuation in 1940? The one great flaw is that Nolan fails to portray the massiveness of the operation. 400,000 men were taken off that beach. But Nolan is famously averse to digital effects, and the lines of soldiers simply look sparse and underwhelming. All he had to do was go to Peter Jackson's Weta for digital soldiers up and down the beach. A misfire, I think.

Home theater!!!

Special Effects are best of any war action movie I have ever seen, especially the air engagements. Aircraft are historically accurate, too. Most war movies these days use computer generated air combat scenes that still look fake. This production did not go that route. What a wonderful job in that respect!Unfortunately the script is terribly disjointed. I was constantly wondering where I was. It keeps jumping around to different parties being foiled trying to escape. I've always heard fantastic numbers of men managed to make it back to England, but the impression I am left with from the movie is that very few actually made it! The movie desperately needs a more accurate story line.

Advertised as region free and the BluRay disc plays without issue in the U.S. However, the code included in the box for the digital download does not work. It returns an error that says it is not valid in your region (U.S.). I sent a request to Warner Brothers for a code that would work. They answered no they would not give me one, that the disc was not intended for sale in the U.S. and therefore they could not provide a code. This is not a review of the movie, which is great, but of the product and the seller who is falsely adverting this as a digital download which works anywhere. Kudos to Amazon, they promptly issued a refund, but I see it is still for sale.
