Not Christopher Nolan's best. It feels like the movie was supposed to be longer, because a lot of exposition was missing from the beginning of the movie.

The concept of time travel was fairly clear, but the connections between the character was extremely convoluted. I also don't understand why Nolan thought it made sense to have major character interactions and dialog while behind gas masks. There were literal points in the movie where I had no idea WTF the character were saying to one another under the muffled masks.

I love a confusing movie, but this one was just too much, halfway through I somewhat gave up on understanding all the plot holes, knowing I was going to have to read the plot further thereafter. Cinematic wise the movie was fantastic, as all Nolan films are, but I feel like the movie could've spent more time in the beginning to expand on the characters and their relationships with one another.

I doubt I'll watch it again, but I'll definitely be watching some Youtube breakdowns on the movie for further understanding here.
