I love Chris Nolan's stuff. Nobody is better at huge cinema and this is giant film making. Spectacular action stretched over several continents.
That said, this thing borders on the incomprehensible. Time travel wasn't good enough for Chris. He has stories running forward and backwards in time at the same moment. Yes, it's imaginative. The characters are great. The overarching story is compelling. I found the "love story" portion of the plot that isn't really a love story to be weak. And, of course, inverted time makes everything almost impossible to follow.
Don't worry about that. Set aside two plus hours. Grab a beer and some popcorn. Don't try to figure anything out. It's fun and entertaining to watch the bullets as they fly forward and backwards in time.
