Well... an "action" movie that takes so long to set-up the storyline in such a ponderous fashion strikes me as messy. Add in the overuse of Bain's story told with far too many boring flashbacks, the main character laid up for most of the movie, other not-too-swift use of flashbacks and an overwhelming dirge-like heaviness of self-importance, etc., and you have
a loooooooooooong movie that could have/should have been trimmed down to something that was paced better.
I could go on, but unlike Nolan I know when to call it quits.
We were VERY disappointed. Am looking forward to Skyfall...
