My review
A very well made film on an interesting topic, but at the end of the day its just a biopic with 3 hours of talking. It never feels truly intense and edge of your seat, which is what I've come to expect from Nolan. I think there was a great 2 hour film in there somewhere but it just went on way too long. I felt the scoring was also a little bit weak.
