The Stuff of Nolan Dreams

If you're a fan of Christopher Nolan, this is the stuff of your dreams. The film may be about WWII, but it is a departure from war films as we've come to know them, and this is a good thing! The film keeps you on the edge of your seat with it's amazing score and sound design and without any gratuitous shots of death. Nolan's decision to *purposely* omit backstories for the characters works because it has nothing to do with their lives before we meet them. This is a film about humanity and survival and I didn't feel any less connected to the characters because I "didn't know" them. If anything, it's a testament to Nolan's writing and intuition that you can feel so connected to characters without prior backstory.
