Dunkirk

Eh. If you have zero knowledge on what Dunkirk actually is and etc, you'll spend the entire movie confused. I went with my younger cousins and since we never really studied anything related to this war, we had no idea what was going on. I had to google the synopsis of this movie midway just to get a sense of what was going on. I wish there was more dialogue, and maybe a little more clarification. You get lost midway not knowing who's who or who got shot down and etc... Cinematography and everything else was pretty good, but pretty poor storytelling since it doesn't really educate anyone on the matter.

@ameliashepherd I think the situation is explained during the opening credits, unless you were looking for a broader explaination maybe?

Amanda Knox

That Daily Mail "journalist" is utterly despicable and somehow wilfully ignorant of his role. Solid documentary.

@phildev haha agreed! He was praising himself as a journalist and I was just thinking "you're not a journalist you're a tabloid gossip columnist".

The Quiet Girl

no offense intended but I absolutely needed subtitles for the English parts too, the way those words just all ran together...

Not offensive. This is a pretty normal ‘countryside’ way of speaking in Ireland and they use some slang words. It’s a heavy accent. The girl does mumble a bit too, she’s the quiet girl after all ;)
