Dunkirk is on Hulu now, so I will watch it. I don’t have any expectations one way or the other.

Didn't Dunkirk do quite well? What's your beef with the Dunk, Jorge?

looks like Nolan is reaching his Malick phase? and i dont mean it in a good way.
Also how many shots of Murphy being surprised or bummed that he is actually making a bomb we are going to get?

I'm a big fan of Murphy, so I'll watch this, but this isn't a story I am interested in.
