The film suffered from a lack of engaging dialogue and the quality of the dialogue that was present left much to be desired. Additionally, the excessive use of rapid cuts and an overpowering score detracted from the overall experience. The constant background music seemed unnecessary, especially for a drama centered around a physicist. The film would have benefited from allowing the actors and the set design to convey the story more naturally, without relying heavily on a dramatic score more suited to an action movie like Batman.
Personally, I found the film to be mediocre. It had the potential to be outstanding, but perhaps a different director and writer could have better realized that potential. While I usually appreciate Christopher Nolan's work, a dialogue-driven drama doesn't seem to play to his strengths. In my opinion, he's not particularly adept at writing dialogue. It's unfortunate to see good actors constrained by the film's rapid editing style.
Overall, the film feels like it's a drama tailored for audiences who prefer fast-paced, 90-minute action movies and typically avoid the drama genre.
