I see a lot of high scores for this movie and I am not exactly sure why that would be the case. I would like to state that I rate Nolans work very highly but, as is the case with all movies, they should be judged on its own merit. It is a good movie with an interesting and unique concept and is to be watched intensely to ensure you pick up on the subtle elements that have a bearing on the story. As to miss one element could result in a loss of understanding later on which could ruin the experience Nolan is trying to create. I did find this film was unnecessarily long and drawn out and the dialogue flat and did not help with creating an atmosphere that was going to get me hooked, for these reasons the highest score i could give it is 6.
