Wanna go see Dunkirk this week...



Most people don't like war but some people like war movies...


Do you like war movies? I found the below description online, I think if you like war movies you might like it, I haven't seen it but it was on the cover of TIME and is getting 8.8 / 10 on IMDB and 9.2 on Rotten Tomatoes.

Looks like it was near the beginning of the war, when German advanced into France, trapping Allied troops on the beaches of Dunkirk. British and French forces slowly and methodically evacuated them from the beach using every serviceable naval and civilian vessel that could be found. At the end the mission, 330,000 French, British, Belgian and Dutch soldiers were safely evacuated.

The estimated cost of making the movie was $150 million and it already earned $19.8 million in its first 3 days. 

Christopher Nolan the director also directed a couple of other blockbusters including The Dark Knight, The Dark Night rises (I think both Batman movies), and Inception (that one with the multiple layers of dreams with Leonardo DiCaprio). 

These respectively earned, approx., adjusted for inflation, $662 million, $512 million, $327 million - that is rounded to the nearest million, just so you know...
