Probably Nolan's best movie along Memento. Good story, good acting, nice plot twist. It's funny, because it has the typical Nolan's on-Steroid pretentious element like "electric-cloning" but here it serves the plot to make a point regarding reality itself, so it is probably THE ONLY movie where it works. (In all his other movies the steroided-element it's there just to show off, and ends looking like a pretentious a hole who wants to presume his Ferrari.
