I’ll admit it, I am a Nolan sheep. But when he makes movies like this who can really argue. This is a brilliantly devised film. Part of what makes this film so enjoyable is the “balancing act on a tight rope” screenplay. There are so many possiblities for gigantic plot holes in a movie like this but everything seems to make complete sense if your willing to go where the movie takes you. Not to mention the feeling of never being safe giving you a very exhilarating experince throughout as well. Every character is interesting and not without their moment to shine. The movie flows perfectly and actually takes you places you wouldn’t expect it go, or relationships head in a different direction than you would expect them to be taken. There is more here than the trailer lets on. Its so rare that a summer action film has deeper levels, but this is a near perfect movie: visually, story wise, and charcter wise. It succeeds not necessarly on a small scale, but the big picture is outstanding.
