Christopher Nolan’s palindromic brain teaser is a dazzling high-wire balance of cerebral and spectacle, twisting time to launch action forward & back while unlocking a mysterious, globe-trotting mission to save the world. John David Washington stars with memorable supporting turns from Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, and Kenneth Branagh, but the movie belongs to a series of elaborately jaw-dropping action set pieces that bend the laws of nature.
“A gorgeous, violent, brilliant puzzle box of a movie that relishes in how convoluted it is, and pays off every second of attention.” – Richard Whittaker, The Austin Chronicle
