A Mess.

from Florida
I like Chris Nolan's work. I loved Dark Knight. I know he lovingly spent 160M on this thing. I know he spent 10 years thinking about it. And I think he 'overthunk' it. It is, to paraphrase Chuchill, "An riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma." The dream conceit is so convoluted that I got the feeling even the actors didn't know what the hell was going on. At one point, some character says, "Wait, whose subconcious are we leaping into now?" I had no idea either and frankly by that point didn't care. I kept imagining someone sitting by the fireside trying to tell me this story verbally--impossible. And that's the problem here: when you can't tell the beginning from the middle from the end, you don't have a story. You have...stuff. Glitzy, cinematic, loud,
flashy....stuff.
flashy....stuff.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
