The 1953 Dunkirk movie was better


I liked the character development in that movie more. Because of the character development I felt more involved and wanted them off the beach.

The only character I cared for this movie was Hardy's character, but [spoiler] for probably one of their better pilots he decided to land on the bit of the beach with German soldiers. At least he burned his plane. [/spoiler]

I would've liked to see more of the frontline fighting as well as with the French. At least do something more, something different from the other war movies on Dunkirk. I found hte documentaries more interesting.

You're not the first person who's said that. But it was 1958 not 53.
