Look at the big brains on Brad!
I have no idea what people think now. I saw Inception when it came out, and I have no idea how anyone could have been “confused” when 80% of the dialogue is just characters explaining what’s happening while looking into the camera. I agree on the lack of depth, though. Elliot Page’s performance made Pinocchio seem like a real boy.
Inception is by far his worst movie in my opinion, but agree that Oppenheimer is way overrated. Greta Gerwig was able to make Barbie into a sharp critique of feminism without preaching, but Christopher Nolan felt like he had to mansplain the moral complexity of BUILDING THE ATOMIC BOMB.
Agreed. Look, Christopher Nolan is an exceptional filmmaker when he trusts the audience to understand or at least follow the story- ie Dunkirk, Dark Night, Momento, The Prestige.
The Odyssey shares key elements with those stories AND the text shows how a narrative voice can blend with a voice of the main character.
Im excited!
