War for Planet was amazing. Yes, the second act is a bit slow but overall I loved it. It also ties back to the original 1960s movie very nicely. Even the climactic battle was very unexpected in a good way.

As expected reviews for Dunkirk. A lot of critics are saying it's Nolan's best and his masterpiece.

Rotten Tomatoes: 97% with an average rating of 9/10.

Metacritic: 96/100. 

  • Great directors make great movies. And with Dunkirk, Christopher Nolan has made his second masterpiece, thrilling history retold, remembered and relished
  • There may be money on the screen, but cash alone can’t guarantee this kind of pulsating, cinematic magic, delivered by a director at the height of his powers, mustering the very best at their craft. 
  • There have been countless films this summer that have engaged in endless spectacle but Dunkirk is the rare blockbuster that will leave a bruise. 
  • Dunkirk is an impressionist masterpiece. These are not the first words you expect to see applied to a giant-budgeted summer entertainment made by one of the industry's most dependably commercial big-name directors. But this is a war film like few others, one that may employ a large and expensive canvas but that conveys the whole through isolated, brilliantly realized, often private moments more than via sheer spectacle, although that is here too. 
  • Christopher Nolan's epic isn't just the best film of his career, but one of the best war movies in decades.
  • Sensational in every sense of the word; it aims for both the heart and the head, to be sure, but arrives there via the central nervous system.
  • For his next, and possibly greatest trick, Nolan has whipped up a war movie fearful of and resistant to combat itself, instead preoccupied with the rough interplay between duty and fear.
  • Even as we are left exhausted and stunned by what we've watched, there is an underlying lack of emotional connection that leaves the film as chilly as Nolan's detractors have accused his other pictures of being.
  • Dunkirk wants us to sense what made this moment so pivotal without reducing it to an individual tale. And at that, it succeeds richly.
  • From script level, which pilots three time frames and strafes his own fiction onto the reality of the Allied evacuation of June 1940, to its astonishing technical prowess, this is heart-stopping entertainment.
  • In spite of my want for deeper or more oblique notes in it, Dunkirk is an unbelievably assured and thrilling war film. Nolan is at the top of his game, and what a joy it is to watch him construct such grand scale filmmaking.
  • This is a film without heroes or a straightforward story. The action is the attraction. If that means some of the film feels a little distant and chilly, it's in the admirable service of avoiding simplistic drama.
  • The nerve-racking war thriller Dunkirk is the movie Christopher Nolan's entire career has been building up to, in ways that even he may not have realized.
  • Haunting, thrilling and emotional, Dunkirk is a prestige pic with guts and glory that demands multiple views.
  • This is what audiences want from a Nolan movie, of course, as a master of the fantastic leaves his mark on historical events for the first time.
  • This is visceral, big-budget filmmaking that can be called Art. It's also, hands down, the best motion picture of the year so far.
  • This is Nolan's finest film to date, an immersive and emotional masterpiece and a superb return to form.

 

 

Finally, something to watch.z1lPIjO.png

That Bladerunner 2049 trailer was awesome though.

 

BTW anyone interested in Valerian? They showed one sequence in the trailer which was kinda awesome. It was like a 3rd person video game, with platforming and parkour. The special effects looked mind blowing. I might watch it.

Box Office Week:

  • War for the Planet of the Apes opens worse than Dawn but still takes #1 with $56.5M.
  • Spider-man: Homecoming has worst 2nd weekend drop in MCU history, dropping 61% to come in #2 with $45.2M. 
  • The Big Sick expands meekly to #5 with $7.6M and Wish Upon bombs opening at #7 with $5.5M.
  • Baby Driver - The film saw another great drop this weekend despite some major competition, dropping just 32.7% to come in at #4 with $8.7M. That pushes its domestic total to $73.1M and its worldwide total to $96.2M worldwide, making it the highest grossing Edgar Wright movie by every measure.
  • Logan - The latest in the R-rated blockbuster revival has closed to a very good $226.2M domestic and $616.2M worldwide on a budget of $97M.

 

Atomic Blonde - 68/100. BI4IPFm.png

The rest will be taken care of by Dunkirk this weekend. Pretty sure most other films will experience a drastic drop once it releases.
