The first act is over the top, almost unserious but it seriously picks up steam in the third act featuring the moment every moviegoer will wait for with bated breath (even though we all know it well). Arguably, however, the crux of the movie is in what comes after the deed is done. The political machinations of a warring, complicated world — and, as subtle as it may be, the hard fought battle for free speech and the free expression of ideas without fear of suppression, at least by the state machinery. We forget history too often, and Nolan’s version is entertaining while sufficiently historical.
