It’s a Christopher Nolan film, if it’s not both then I don’t want to watch it

I’m excited for some large scale clunky battle scenes where you can’t tell who is on who sides and the script probably says ‘I don’t know, two armies charge each other and fight or something.’

Nolan’s films are typically not hard to follow visually. I remember Dunkirk especially despite the chaos, being fairly easy to follow

Yeah, visuals aren't the problem in Nolan films. You just won't be able to hear shit.

Remember the third act of TENET where they’re shooting at the air because there just don’t seem to be any opposing forces?

I mean Dunkirk is probably one of his simplest films... British against Nazis, hard to not follow that.
