    The plot jumps quickly making the viewer think on the fly about what is going on. While it can be predictable, one has to be able to follow all of the rapid changes. It left me confused and bewildered, and that`s a very good thing. It was worth seeing in the theater and I`m looking forward to watching it on DVD. If you want to go to the movies and have no idea what to see, this is the movie. A potential award winner.

    Amazing twists! Keeps you thinking all the way through and afterward. It was a beautiful film with great acting...definitely worth my ten bucks. And for those who thought it was confusing, that`s what so great about it.

    Big let down. Nolan is losing his touch. I found the ending of the film very predictable and extremely disappointing. Acting was decent, but the plot lacked substance. It had some promise of originality, but quickly lost it. Also, film was confusing as it jumped from past to present - very annoying and confusing at times. Best part of the movie is David Bowie as Nikola Tesla. Nolan infused actual elements of history as Edison and his bullies attempt to steal Tesla`s research and ideas on electricity and electrical currents.

    This movie has a unique story line but the commercial was better than the actual movie.
