Zero character development...imax. So is this like one of those museum imax movies like volcano or rain forest or something? Just watch it because it's pretty and has good sound?


Good Lord. No. Just No.

Saw it for the second time today with my dad and cousin. It was just as good, maybe even a bit better than the first viewing. Didn't have to spend any time following the time differences, even tho I didn't find it that hard to follow the first time as some are saying

I understand some not likig the lack of dialogue/character development. But for me it didn't really take away from the movie as I was still very much invested in the characters and their survival

My main criticism, which my dad and cousin agreed, was the score was too constant. I liked it overall, but there were some instances where I felt zero music would have been more impactful

I think this is Nolan's best achievement as director and expect him to get an Oscar nom, but I'd say it's right behind Memento and The Prestige in my rankings

100%. Way too overbearing.

Memento is in a whole different galaxy. Prestige, TDK, and Exposition were probably better as well. This comfortably makes the Top 5 in his filmography
