Nolan is too ambitious for his own good.

Rating: 6/10 (13 November 2014)

Everything about this film was basically great, except for the actual story. It lumbers along quite well for the first 2 acts, and completely falls apart in the third act. The problem was that the writers (the Nolan brothers) seem to have been too lazy to work a little harder on the screenplay so that the resolution actually made sense. I have a Science background and the developments of the third act defy any kind of reality and glossed over the scientific aspects of the story. Matthew McConaughey was excellent because he grounded the film and enabled us to try to ignore the horrible plot holes, plot reversals and other inconsistencies that appeared throughout the film. It's worth seeing for the visuals and the special effects. If you want a story that actually makes sense (even in the context of a movie), maybe you should skip this one.
