    extremely impressive craft, especially the sound. millennial coming of age films – especially those truly about flawed boomer parents – hit close to home in a way i know isn't unique to me, but man did this make me feel like it.

    though beautiful and heartbreaking, this was just a little too sparse for me. especially given how good the performances are, i wish there was a bit more plot to cling to.

    i guess i don't get the appeal of this. an eye rollingly bad screenplay made worse by the director giving his no talent daughter like 40 minutes of screen time + 4 songs in the first hour.

    hartnett was fun i guess but the reviews calling this fun and blockbustery don't make much sense to me.  i just thought it was a neat idea stupidly executed between screenplay and acting idk

    pretty good, but needs more repetitive, weirdly sexual crowd work and uproarious laughter at his own jokes

    holy shit. pacing, acting, sound, score, tension, the fucking trinity test. and the POV! where the fuck did nolan being a principled dove and critiquing the military industrial complex and right wing political brinkmanship come from?

    this is easily nolan's best movie. don't ever sleep on bobby o!
