Christopher Nolan is one of the great visionary directors of our time – though the now dead IMDb message boards would say otherwise, and quite aggressively so – and this year sees the release of his latest film Dunkirk, a stunning war film starring Nolan regulars Tom Hardy and Cillian Murphy, amongst others. These five TV Spots depict different intense, terrifying sequences including a platoon of soldiers bracing for an air strike, and Hardy’s pilot character taking to the skies for an air battle.
Even in these very short bursts, Dunkirk looks completely exhilarating. There was a lot of division over Nolan’s last film Interstellar, but I think this one will have a far more consistently positive reaction.
Dunkirk is out 21st July.
