Stormtroopers on Skis???

Rating: 6/10 (16 July 2010)

Anybody else wondering what was up with the snow trooper stuff? I understand it's purpose for the story, but why? Why take an interesting engaging story and transform it into an action movie for the last 40 minutes. So many things they could have done with CGI in those final minutes. I wanted to be amazed but instead they went with trip ropes on skis and gun fights. Really??? By the time I yawned through these scenes there was little time left to really build tension for the end and I forgot that I cared. I wish they would have focuses on Leo's character and explored the "limbo" more. This is my least favorite Nolan movie and the sad thing is it's very good on many levels. Too bad they took the easy way out instead of coming up with an imaginative way to end this. I have to believe Nolan can dream up something better than stormtroopers on skis.
