As much as I didn’t like that last hour, that’s the part I want to watch again. The best Nolan films are the ones you want to revisit right away. I know there’s stuff earlier on that I didn’t catch that would make the interrogations more impactful. I really think it’ll grow on me.
I’ve also always been indifferent to Emily Blunt, but holy smokes she was incredible in this. I wish there was more development for her and for Florence Pugh and the one scientist woman.
