2026 · The Mercury News · Jul 2026

Nolan's striking visual vision — it's the first feature film to be shot with 70mm IMAX cameras — is a staggering siren-like beauty to behold. It's a cinematic marvel in every way, from Hoyte van Hoytema's transcendent cinematography to Ludwig Göransson's aesthetically appropriate score. You'll walk out of the theater after seeing this nearly three-hour epic with the overwhelming sense that not only was Nolan the right filmmaker for the job, but perhaps the only current filmmaker who could pull it off with such command and intelligence.
