Excruciatingly long, slow and *gasp* dare I say it, boring. It's boring. The only good thing was the stacked cast of actors, it get to a point while I almost doze off, Casey affleck's voice woke me up and then yeah there he is, a surprise appearance by casey affleck yayyy. That's how bored I am.
This is a passion project of Nolan, only it felt like he made it for himself and that's fine actually. Too bad I dont enjoy this movie, though another thing I do enjoy however was the score. It is mighty cinematic & beautiful, it also enhances some of the boring dialogue which otherwise would be rather bland. I've been a fan of Ludwig Goransson since Tenet & Wakanda forever.
I think Nolan's name alone could made this a box office hits, however in this day where our attentions were divided upon so many things, it could prove to be detrimental for our enjoyment of the movie, maybe I couldn't enjoy this movie because my brain was used to shorter & compact contents (Tiktok is a pandora box for me) BUT in my defense, comparing this movie to Nolan's previous works, I cannot say this was superior in any means. Inception, Interstellar, Batmans, Tenet were all feast for my eyes & brain. But I pushed through to the end and I pat myself in the shoulder as I walked out of cinema.
Cinematography is sub par, strory's not really engaging, the back and forth in timeline feels messy, performances was nothing special, all the actors did their job okay, and also the much hyped no cgi for the bomb sequences felt underwhelming. I agree that they dont need CGI because this is not an action movie, it's a historical biography movie whom also focuses a lot on political tension during wartime. And it wont matter much anyway, the bomb scene was just a short scene. So I guess the much hyped marketing tactic which spread around saying all of the effects was practical was actually inconsequential.
Feel free to skip this one as I felt the regular nolan fans will be dissapointed. Its a historical biography drama but less emphasis on the drama.
