Note that the actual Dunkirk evacuation was HARDLY some big-manly-macho-penis-engorging-victory but rather a panicked evacuation that was ultimately a disaster and they only saved as many lives as they did because of hundreds of civilian vessels coming to help the troops.

I mean the Dunkirk movie makes the gravity and horror of the situation pretty clear (the soundtrack is pretty much dark-ambient with some industrial twists here and there). I don't see any "celebration" involved in that film. If anything is celebrated its the spontaneous benevolence of the civilians who wanted to help... not "maleness."

I'm sure everyone can see the obvious male disposability, combined with the atrociously hateful and myopic feminist mindset of the reviewer, so I won't comment at length on that (I'll let others do so).
