I didn't care for it and wouldn't recommend it. It's a big budget movie with a small budget. It just needed more.

Plus I'm not really familiar with the story but I came away with the impression that the English abandoned the French in a desperate situation and then had the audacity to mock the French as cowards.

So the scene where Naval Commander saying he will stay back for the French evacuation didn't give you any impression.

Where did they call the French cowards in the film? And if you're basing that off of something outside the film why didn't you also consider what actually happened outside of the plot in the film too?

Dunkirk Evacuation

An additional 75,000 French troops were retrieved over the nights of 2–4 June, before the operation finally ended.

The remainder of the rearguard—40,000 French troops—surrendered on 4 June

Small budget? What else more did you need? If someone wants to complain about no character development then I get that. But what else did you want budget wise? A bunch of crappy CGI?

And I never got the feeling of them mocking the French in the movie
