Saw it tonight. Good cinematography. I had high hopes as the movie opened, after that the time line was difficult to follow until near the end. As with others was very disappointed in the end Spitfire scene. Why not take that plane out into the channel how ever far it will go and ditch? Even a few hundred yards would get you picked up. Why land on the beach? He knew they were evacuating and the Germans were coming. That's why he was flying cover. I also disagree with the fight scene on the boat in which the boy died. The only significance of that was to get the tug on the heart strings at the end. Not necessary in my opinion. It would have been much better to show him as a real hero, dying during an attack or better living another day.

Any way, I found it to be OK. Definitely not the greatest war movie ever. Band of Brothers, Saving Private Ryan much better.
