It could've been an amazing documentary, had Nolan went a slightly different way with it. But as an action movie it's weak on action. As a drama it's weak on acting, character development and as whole completely failed to evoke any emotions in me.

I didn't really care for any of the characters, there wasn't much happening at all and most importantly - for an "ultra realistic war experience" it lacked much in terms of actual realism and violence. You could feel the PG-13 in every scene, there's very little focus on suffering/death and it almost makes war look easy. I just expected the complete opposite from the reviews I've seen.

I don't really get where Nolan was going with this. Loved every single one of his movies... until now.
