"Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."
third life changing event that has happened in a week...once again Christopher Nolan has made my jaw drop (multiple times throughout this entire masterpiece) i first need to say that that atomic bomb explosion was literally CINEMA. Nolan always presents us with a confusing subject matter (technicalities of security clearance + quantum physics) but in the end it always works out so damn well and the audience is able to grasp it at the very end.
i love the bits of pieces of events and we see fragments of different parts of an event unfold throughout the film. which unfolds the complexities of the entire situation and exposes each character for their true motives. it deconstructs what they originally stood for or how Nolan wanted us to perceive them to be. Nolan carefully cultivates this image of a character which sticks with us throughout the film then at the end he destroys it with just a brilliant script. also, a perfect analogy of a chain reaction.
despite this film being more on the serious side, about atomic bombs, i love how bits of comedy were injected into this to make this more lighthearted and fun to laugh at. my favourite comedic line was
"How long have u been British?" "Since Hitler told me i wasnt German."
and also the guy with sunscreen, which we all laughed at in the theatre.
the sound design was nothing short of absolutely phenomenal. i love the J-cuts and the way sound used in earlier parts are a reference to the later parts. i think the stomping was genius and such a favourite.
the acting was so so so great i love this cast, all of them did such an amazing job. + CILLIAN MURPHYEHWJWBWJDF
i didnt watch this in IMAX, i fear... because i frantically bought tickets to the first show i could find. but i will definitely rewatch this in IMAX for the full experience soon
