This is superbly filmed, acted and photographed. A beautiful snapshot of timelines and place, which works so well on many levels.
However (there's always one for a 6/10) the musical score is a blanket of tyranny that imposes itself over the dialogue. There are scenes of discussion and science that into inaudible custard by overwhelming orchestration.
Less is more. A score is there to accentuate and contextualise the emotion of a scene, not throw an audio blanket over it so we miss important points of detail and history.
Maybe Christopher Nolan should watch some earlier Spielberg films to see how this works in the edit room.
