Saw this today, first trip to a cinema in six months! It was pretty wonderfully quiet, though we did go in the morning where it's more quiet.

 

It was pretty much classic Nolan, possibly to a fault at points. I'm not brainy enough to properly dissect the science of the time travel methods they were going for, but to my ears, it was mainly vague nonsense as an excuse for those cool fight scenes and gotcha moments, which were pretty spectacular so no issues there x I think I need to read up on the plot as there was still some things I didn't get, it really didn't help that the dialogue was so hard to understand in places, especially the opening scene. I'm not even sure who the lead character was nor anything about him but I gather it was meant to be more of a plot driven narrative anyway. Still, it never lost my interest bar the extremely exposition-heavy first half and the backwards sequences were incredible to watch.

 

I couldn't quite love it though as I just think it was missing a bit of heart ultimately, it did just feel like one big journey from A to B with lots of confusing physics thrown in and no real development of characters or emotional investment. It was basically just like Inception, but that worked because the characters were more fleshed out and you cared about them and so you were willing to go through these layers of confusion.

 

Flawed certainly, but a hell of a lot of fun so I'd recommend it anyway, and ofc. I give him full credit for sticking to his guns and releasing it in cinemas as this is EXACTLY the film needed for that :wub:

when you look at the US number closely it's awful :cry: damn, we we're rooting for this but ugh :/// Wonder Woman has been pushed back to Xmas and Candyman to 2021 now and honestly expect every single other major 2020 release to come to be moved back (bar maybe Bond)

 

I still haven't got round to seeing this yet oops

Apparently majority of cinemas are closed in New York and LA, to the point Nolan fans/fans of cinema have been travelling distances just to see it... Gahhh. I still don't see the problem of releasing in territories where possible and places like the US where it's very limited, give a VOD option (something they should definitely have done with Mulan imo)
