The more I think about this film, the more I realise I thoroughly enjoyed it. What wasn’t there to like? Visually stunning, intelligent and captivating, the film makes you really think about what’s going on, and draws you into its world. The issue that some people may have with it, is it can have the ability to confuse – but only if you switch off for a second.
It’s a dynamic and imaginative storyline, layer upon layer of storyline blasting onto the screen before our eyes. It demands your full attention, but you’re so riveted to it anyway, that how could you possibly switch off? (if you need to pop to the toilet, you may then regret it) but overall, such a technical and tremendous film.
Full of action, brilliantly directed by Christopher Nolan, and with a fantastic cast (DiCaprio is thrilling, Hardy is outstanding, and Page is mesmerizing) it’s definitely one to snap up when released on DVD. If you’re a High Definition fanatic, this is one that will outstand on blu-ray.
Brilliant and original, plays on your mind days, and even weeks after you’ve seen it. Amazing.
