The reviews are in - and most film critics have heaped praise on Christopher Nolan's World War Two film Dunkirk. It stars Tom Hardy, Mark Rylance, Kenneth Branagh, and of course, One Direction star Harry Styles. The film is set in 1940 and is about the rescue of 338,000 Allied troops from the beaches of Dunkirk, France. The film is released across the UK on Friday. So is it the best film of the year so far?

And what an achievement it is! Robbie Collin - The Telegraph Like all great war films, it's every bit as transfixing up close: at the wheels of the civilian boats
