Surprise
Surprised there is no discussion about this one. Just watched it tonight. It was entertaining, but only if you tried not to think about anything too much. Too much thinking was futile and would ultimately confuse even more. It’s the type of movie that you need to save all the thinking for when it is over and you have all the puzzle pieces. And even then it’s a bit of a Picasso.

Just watched this tonight. Good movie. Inception was better but had the same feel to it. I thought in this case Nolan was trying too hard. Very cool concept but was way to "heady" for it's own good. The 4K disc has excellent picture and sound. By the end I think most can put it al together but there was a big chunk of WTH during a big chunk of the movie.

Finally saw this. Definitely a mind bender. And I’m unsure if they got it right. But don’t want to think too hard on it. Enjoyed it.

Nope. Not the first time, or the fifth time. I love Chris Nolan movies but he was in tilt with time in this one.
