Excellent review, as usual. I haven’t seen the film, but it wouldn’t surprise me if he made the plot complex because that’s what he does. It’s relatively common with auteurs to continue their old tricks even when it’s not that necessary anymore (see Wes Anderson).
Either way, though, I agree that Nolan makes the most vital and original blockbusters coming out right now. I can’t say any of his movies besides the Batman trilogy are among my personal favorites, but they are some of the few movies I go out of my way to see in the theater, even if the specific film doesn’t jump out at me.
