The film strikes a good balance between stimulus overload and actually having a lesson to teach. Although the moral of the story has been told before, it is the mind bending form that sets this film apart. Though the film gets conceptual (and quirkily random UwU) really quickly, it does so with clarity and grace - Nolan take note. On the other hand, it does lose pace in the middle and desperately reiterates the same point. (Kinda like a kid telling a joke and asking if you got it, numerous times.) Also the setting gets a bit mundane as the film progresses.

All in all, the experience is worth it as the film attempts a striking a deeper note by allowing character transformations and reappraisals, something it's younger target audience can do well to follow.
