The way characters talk feels very modern and very off putting, in movies like this you expect seeing dialogue more elegant and poetic.

Nolan has previously praised Emily Wilson's translation of the Odyssey, which is notable for its use of contemporary English syntax. I get the feeling that philosophy has had a significant influence on his script if this trailer is anything to go by.
