Embroiled in an intense game of cat and mouse aboard a U.S. Navy submarine, Crimson Tide sees the two veteran actors butting heads over control of their undersea vessel, the fate of the world hanging in the balance as they argue whether or not to launch a preemptive nuclear strike against a foreign nation. Relying on an ensemble cast that includes the likes of Channing Tatum, Naomi Ackie, Christian Slater, Haley Joel Osment, Geena Davis, and Alia Shawkat, Blink Twice appears as an intriguing mystery of almost Hitchcockian proportions, forcing audiences to constantly guess what’s real, what’s fake, and what secrets the men of the island are keeping from their unfortunate female companions. With the latter film, Nolan presents a nuanced view of J. Robert Oppenheimer’s overarching attempts to build the world’s first nuclear bomb – a weapon that would shape the future course of history well into the 21st century.
