It’s magnificent, the best war movie since the first 20 minutes of Saving Private Ryan, and I’m glad I waited.
That said, the cynic in me wonders whether someone told Nolan that he shouldn’t show Nazis, for fear of Donald Trump condemning the movie and saying there was blame on both sides.

Sublime. One of the most effective scores and use of foley I’ve heard for a long time. Wish I’d seen it in the big screen. 😦
