Just after we left the cinema, we got caught in a brief but torrential downpour which was probably the most fitting way to end this film.

I honestly got such a thrill from the "It is written" tease. Every time someone said it, I was hoping that someone would complete the reference it seemed to be building to so I quietly rejoiced when Ethan finally follows through with "Nothing is written" in the final act. Iconic. Last weekend's IFI Lawrence of Arabia 70mm crew would truly appreciate the reference.
