Overrated, over-hyped, over here
Read the films ranked below Inception in the top 250...and weep. Havepeople lost their critical faculties? Yes, Inception is clever,multi-layered, complex and intellectually challenging. It is alsoheartless. It struggles to stimulate emotion. Cleverness replacesimpact. Di Caprio's one-dimensional acting reinforces this sterility.From the first shot of a grim face we get the whole range of grim facesin a grim performance. He is grim about his kids, grim about thefolding graphics, grim about his team, grim about the task in hand. Ofthe Matrix- plus effect I did like the folding city, but the ending wasportentous to the point of tedium. One very good litmus test of thequality of a film is to analyse how many times the main protagonistshave to explain the plot and at what length they have to explain it.Several characters explain the rules of the dream within a dream withina dream construct at the heart of the movie, with increasingloquaciousness and qualifications. This isn't plotting and it fails tocreate a genuine narrative drive. Compare it to so many of the filmsthat come below this one in the rankings, Twelve Angry Men, SevenSamurai, Goodfellas, Casablanca, Once upon a time in America, CitizenKane for goodness' sake. Don't even mention films like Shawshank andthe Godfather which rank above it. This is a good film, possibly one ofthe better films of the year. It is a very long way from a great one.

Nice Action
With all the similarities to the matrix movie, it is still differnt enough to be unique and fresh. The adventure is both complex and enjoyable. You would definitely enjoy seeing it twice to fully understand the more subtle parts of the story. Inception is not unlike the Matrix, from characters living in dream worlds, to those who can manipulate their surroundings, and those fighting a corrupt power.

Deserves better...
... than to be remembered as the movie which posed as no. 3. A ratingof eight stars would have been appropriate. Definitely seven. Nine? Indreams perhaps. So here is one star. Just to bring balance back toforce... And please stop making parallels to Matrix. In this one thereis more than merely FX. Makes you want to know more. The Matrix, well,everyone understood. It deserves to be seen. It even deserves to be ownon Blu-ray. Not every day you get to see a dynamic Escher or Parispacking on itself. Unfortunately there is little more that meets theeye. A top 10 IMDb? Doubtful. Toy Story 3 is no. 12. And that one mademe think more about meanings in life.

Another glorious mind twister from Nolan
In a plan to go home and see his children skilled thief Cobb (DiCaprio) must plant an idea in a young man's mind but he is forevertroubled by his memories of his wife.Ever since the release of The Dark Knight a few years ago many havewondered what Chris Nolan's next step would be and after months ofspeculation and a glorious viral marketing scheme we have arguably oneof the greatest mind twisters of all time.Like his backwards mind twister Memento ten years ago the Britishdirector gives us viewers another splendid treat with a psychologicalstory that uses stunning directional action sequences, perfect castingand some mouth watering scenery to surely make Inception film of theyear material.Leo Di Caprio who many praised after his performance in Shutter Islandearlier this year manages to stabilise the film's deeper darker momentsthrough a clever thought out performance. His character Cobb has hadtrouble with the past and his memories. His clever mind at theanalysing and interpretation of dreams expands further and engagesaudiences into a whole realm of possibilities. Cobb is a wonderfulprofessional but an imaginative troubled soul and this gives the storya great balance against the heavy action sequences.Not since the Matrix has action ever been this cool. There are too manyunique moments to summarize here but one worthy mention is when thecity starts to turn in on itself and Ellen Page and Di Caprio are stoodin awe as you shall be by the sheer handling of this perfect sci-fisequence by Nolan. From rainy car chases to corridor fights to a heistin the snowy mountains the adrenaline never stops pumping and if youlike your Bonds, Bourne's and Indian Jones's you will think Christmashas come early.Further to the central masterstroke by the Titanic star Nolan hasbrought in a wealth of experience and rising stars for his film.Michael Caine whilst only fleetingly stars is brilliant, MarionCotillard will sooner sprout wings than give a bad performance but eventhis is exceptionally good for her. Ellen Page and Joseph Gordon Levitthave both been rising quickly these last few years and in theirrespective roles both are memorable but Levitt excels through some finebalancing of seriousness professional and adding a dash of comedystyling to.Nolan again picks up the action with a great subtle soundtrack that isalways perfect in capturing the moment. But his wide sweeping varietyof scenery and action montages, the back and forth settings arestaggering.Hopefully this film will be watched time and time again for its storyas it truly boggles the mind as it explores the fabrications of realityand how we dream, think, feel, suffer and explicate the human race. Forone I would strongly recommend watching this to have your mind well andtruly warped.

Where dreams about past and present realities don't mix too well - or maybe they do?
Christopher Nolan's imaginative use of filmic structure, script,cinematography and direction provide a passably entertaining storywithin a story that has, unfortunately, confused many viewers here, andelsewhere, perhaps with its overuse of dream sequences, but certainlywith its fantasy caper that often doesn't make any sense.But that's the cunning beauty of this movie: it's deliberately designedto be as confusing and mystifying as your own dreams. For viewers who have not yet seen the film:STOP READING NOW  MAJOR SPOILERS FOLLOW...After sampling forty plus reviews here, I found two that are on theball: leda_ananke from Canada who begins "Its all a dream"; and DanijelPajur from Ireland who asserts, up front, "This movie is so predictablethat it takes all of 10 minutes to figure it out."A bit less than "10 minutes" actually: according to my timing, at 3minutes and 7 seconds into the film, Cobb (di Caprio) says: "This is adream and you have a safe-full of secrets and I need to know what's inthat safe." He says it so quickly, however, that many would miss it, orignore its significance. Director Nolan, however, has told the viewer:You're now in Cobb's dream.The second clue follows very swiftly, just in case you missed Cobb'sbrazen admission: the whole building shakes, much noise roars, soundsof explosions intrude, and we see through the window, the chaos of fireand smoke, lots of smoke in the streets outside, cars exploding, peoplerushing about, and heaps of smoke...Thirty minutes into the chaotic plot, we're in Paris with Aridane(Ellen Page)  what a deliciously subversive name from Greek mythology who's leading Cobb through the dream and stops suddenly to magicallybring forth two giant mirrors, positioning them to show Cobb toinfinity, in both directions. It's the third clue for viewers and,added to the first, we have director Nolan's explicit and cleveradmission to you, the viewer: This caper is all smoke and mirrors, dearviewer; don't try to understand  just concentrate on the real story...Which is, quite simply, the crisis of guilt Cobb feels as a result ofhis wife's death  a death for which he holds himself personallyresponsible. So, that's the real story: a man's dream about his ownguilt complex. (By the way, would the word 'corn' come to mind when yousay Cobb?)The parallel story  the corporate mind-blowing and mind-robbing caper is just a narrative device to allow Cobb's associates to assist hisefforts to come to terms with his guilt. And all of which is wrapped upinto a convoluted mix of psycho-babble, outrageous and impossiblepseudo-scientific equipment, fantastically impossible or improbablesituations and a slew of special FX guaranteed to confuse and/ordelight those who dwell on such banalities.So that's Cobb's real mission: with a little help from friends to feedhim ideas  the Inception of the title  he must face the truth of thecircumstances of his wife's death. Hence, if Nolan did indeed set outto confuse his audience about mind-shaping, I'd say he largelysucceeded. Which is surprising, because planting ideas into another'smind has been around since the mid-nineteenth century with hypnosis andauto-suggestive techniques, a fact which that consummate thrillerwriter, Richard Condon, used to great effect when he wrote TheManchurian Candidate back in 1960 (and later filmed twice).Dreams, however, have been used all too often in cinema. A couple ofsignificant examples are, first, Hitchcock's imaginative use ofanimation in Spellbound (1945) to help solve a murder mystery; andsecond, William Friedkin confused many viewers with his enigmatic andmuch-underrated Bug (2006)  a very clever story that keeps youguessing to the very last frame...and beyond. So, despite the overly gushing praise about Nolan's originality, hiseffort here is original only to the extent that he...er, dreamed it allup, wrote it, and directed it. Moreover, he'd be the first to admitthat, I'm sure.From a production and technical perspective, however, the film istop-notch; the acting is adequate to the task of presenting asuccession of comic-book characters to assist Cobb's mental andemotional recovery; the special effects are precisely what's needed tokeep viewers trapped in Cobb's dream; and the plot  the sequence ofevents  must be seen because it cannot be sensibly described.Overall, Inception is just the latest filmic effort guaranteed successat box office: the level of hype and hubbub I've heard and seen, onlineand offline, is every film-makers wet dream. David Lynch does it allthe time. So, how can anybody accuse Nolan of failure?The film is not an instant classic, however: it's an average storycompetently overshadowed by an old idea dressed up to cater to today'svisually obsessed audience. The fact that it confuses, annoys, delightsand even angers a large (young) population proves that Nolan pushed allthe appropriate buttons. Give it a seven out of ten, but wait for theDVD to see it; don't pay exorbitant cinema fees.Nolan now has a problem, though: what next?

The Diamond of Summer 2010
If you liked Nolan's previous films "Memento" and/or "The Prestige",you will love Inception. Like those films it does a good job of settingthe ground rules for the world so you are never confused but at thesame time reality can be distorted but it never does at the expense ofthe story. Deep down this film is about forgiveness and letting go butalso has a great sci-fi sheen that never takes that idea away. Even ifthe story doesn't hook you than you will be in awe of the set piecesthat put many other films to shame where you never can predict whatwill come next. Overall this is a great film that will stand out thissummer of lackluster films by being smart, action packed, andcontaining real emotion and heart. I can't recommend it enough.

Must see in theater to truly appreciate the awesomeness!
Some films absolutely must be seen in a theater. Inception is one ofthose rare films that will not be truly experienced without a bigscreen, the bigger the better (IMAX if possible), or else you will notfeel as if you are in the... (well, you'll see).On a Saturday afternoon, the theater was packed with the most diverseaudience I have ever seen: ages from early teen to people who looked asthough they had not been to a theater in decades; all races; many, manyethnic backgrounds; male and female. And everyone seemed entranced fromthe opening scene, all the way through to the final moment, when theentire audience gasped in unison. (If you have seen Inception, you willknow exactly what I am talking about.)Don't miss seeing a new classic be born. Enjoy!

The 6th Sense/Matrix/Batman Begins Hybrid
Sci-fi the way I like it; this movie combines the Sixth Sense with the Matrix and Batman Begins and creates a whole new hybrid of movie within movie within movie schematics that will leave simple-minded viewers being wowed with the action, and deeper-thinkers pondering the logistics of the entire movie.The two-and-a-half hours flew by in the blink of an eye for me, and I will willingly see this movie again, and soon, to attempt to piece together a few parts that eluded me the first time.The acting and visuals are top-notch, and the idea behind the story is worthy of Neil Gaiman.

A fantastic movie
Just when i thought concepts such as the matrix couldn't be improvedon, this does it! It is fresh, innovative and exciting from start tofinish.While it is quite a long movie it never feels like it (a sign of a goodmovie me thinks!)It does need a lot of concentration in order to followeverything that is going on, and similar to the matrix, the more timesyou watch it, the more you understand it. There are many layers to thismovie, both characters and storyline and the director does well toanswer questions that the audience have as the story develops. How/whatwould happen or that happen within a dream. Or why cant a person insomeone else's dreams not just do this and that. All solutions/answersare well explained and make lots of sense! The effects are fantasticand it was amazing to see in the cinema. I no doubt think that we couldhave several sequels or prequels to this movie as there are enoughdirections it could go in.Di Caprio is amazing in this movie and deserves an Oscar for hisflawless performance.

Coudn't be worse... just a disaster !
Just one advice ! - Keep AWAY from this nightmare ! 2.5 hours ofboring, boring and once more boring thing (cannot even call it amovie). Stupid idea, veeeery slow action and absolutely nothing new what wehaven't seen before. I do not understand why Leonardo Di Caprio who used to be for me somekind of guarantee of a good fun decided to take a part in thisdisaster. The same about Michael Caine. And one more thing - music: the most disturbing and annoying moviesoundtrack I ever listened to... they should be returning money fortickets !

Dreamscape
This review is from: Inception (DVD) When you watch this 2010 sci-fi thriller, you need to pay close attention. You may want to turn on the subtitles to help follow the conversation, or you may get lost in the twists and turns of the plot. This was what happened to me at my first viewing, but the pieces started to fall into place when I watched the movie for the second time. The story is about a group of people who steals secrets from corporate leaders by entering into their dreams in operations dubbed "extraction". They push the boundary further by trying to plant an idea into the subconscious mind of the heir of an industrial magnate. The operation is called "inception". I can see why some viewers would throw up their hands on this movie, given the complexity of the plot, but they should give some leeway to the writer-director-producer of this film, Christopher Nolan, who is well known for experimental film making. This film is not your run-of-the-mill sci-fi and it requires certain amount of effort from the viewers to follow Nolan's thoughts. Lead actor Leonardo DiCaprio is great as usual, but the one to watch is the Japanese actor Ken Watanabe, who is famous as Lord Katsumoto Moritsu in "The Last Samurai".

Very Disappointed
I couldn't wait to watch this film but boy was it disappointing. It wasa fantastic idea and yes it looked great. However, the main problem forme was that the characters were drawn so poorly in conjunction with thevisuals that I did not really care what happened to them. I lovedMomento and The Dark Knight but the crucial difference is that I caredabout Guy Pearce and Christian Bale. It may be perhaps that I do notrate De Caprio but I could care less about what his predicament was. Ieven tried watching it 3 times to see if I was missing anything butended up getting annoyed. Visually stunning there is no doubt and anamazing concept but emotionally shallow.
Metal-life333 01 May 2012
Truly Stunning in every way!
This is truly what film is about. I haven't felt so Involved in a moviein a while, when this movie starts you feel like you are apart of it,and its over before you know it (this is a 2 and a half hour longmovie).In the beginning it starts out by grabbing your intention very fast,and after the first scene, i know i felt like my 10 dollars were wellspent. the first half of the movie you meet all of your characters thatyou will grow to love and root for. the Exposition is great, you neverfeel lost, or frustrated with the film, and you think you would withsuch a unusual story.In the second half, the rising action of the movie is so intense forlike an hour and you feel all of the tension in the whole cinema. and icannot go to far into the second half with out spoiling things so iwill leave you with this for you to decide to go see it. Once, or ifyou are like me twice (in one day).

Lord Nolan!
This is an movie that has been able to make such a connection to me,that it is amazing. I think this is the best movie of the decade if notall time. Christopher Nolan is the new Hitchcock. Although Hitchcock isthe father of movies, Nolan is the his "younger brother." This movie issuch a work of genius that it is amazing that it is by one man. I alsocommend him on using minimal CGI. This quite a hard one to do that. Ihave been very inspired by his work to create my movies to be like his.Nothing bad can be said by me about this movie, if anything it would bejust a minor detail of very little importance. I just hope they don'tmake a sequel to this. It would never be nearly as good and would giveaway the special ending.

Nolan has created a provocative piece of cinema, flirting with masterpiece -- but is it?
Inception is one of the more enjoyable films that I have seen in some time. It falls somewhere between the Matrix (methodology), Vanilla Sky (multi-layered realities) and the Usual Suspects (densely-plotted, begs more than one viewing.)The result is a thrill-ride that will leave most viewers pondering long after the credits have rolled. It is both provocative and at times mesmerizing, albeit a bit over-thought at times.Though the idea of "dream hacking" is hardly new, Nolan's layers to the idea make the concept seem quite fresh and the result is something unique. Instead of relying on one "plane" of consciousness or dreamscape, Nolan has included "levels", which dictate different levels of a dream and each team member has a role to serve in navigating its murky and at times unnerving landscape to accomplish their mission. Timing is critical at every level and the story is weaved together rather well, though at times it can feel a little overwhelming.In fact, the only complaint I have about the film is that at certain moments it bogs down under the weight of its own complexity and at times, unnecessarily.Part of this is because Nolan is a little unconventional in terms of how he handles exposition. Instead of laying out the rules of the world in one part of the film, he chooses to add more rules as the film progresses.In a more conventional scenario, consider the Matrix:1. First part, we are as disoriented as Neo and do not understand what is happening. 2. Second part, the rules of the world are laid out by Morpheus and suddenly we understand what is happening. 3. Finally, the action takes place with the audience in the full know of the established rules.With Inception, these rules unfold throughout almost the entire film, much like the plot points. The result is a double-edged sword: On one hand, it keeps the film moving swiftly and you continue to have "ah-ha" moments. On the other hand, it makes one feel like scorekeeping is in order to keep everything straight as you watch it.It's not so much that Nolan gives us TOO MUCH INFORMATION, as much as it that he gives us CRITICAL PIECES OF INFORMATION in VERY SMALL WINDOWS of screen time. This means one ill-timed bathroom break could compromise your entire understanding of the film. Even paying strict attention the entire time, there are still times when details lost because we're too busy absorbing info. Another common complaint is the "ambiguous ending", which has sparked raging debates. I personally don't mind such endings. I like coming to my own conclusions, but that's just me. Unfortunately though, I found more ambiguous moments throughout the entire film, which doesn't work as well. Again, the "rules" get fuzzy at times, which one should always be avoided when doing science fiction, especially as layered as this.That being said, you still feel like you've seen a "complete film" at the end, and it should resonate one way or another, good or bad. No one and I mean NO ONE can dispute Nolan's ambition here. It's one of the most ambitious concepts and films I've seen in years.PERFORMANCESI don't consider myself a huge DiCaprio fan. I love much of his early work but don't remember him in a memorable role since Titanic (I have not yet seen Shudder Island, which I am told he is good in.) I thought he was very strong here, with much of Nolan's script playing to his strengths.Supporting performances were exactly what I expected -- nothing Oscar worthy, but perfectly capable. Cillian Murphy is teamed up with Nolan again, and serves his character well. I feared Ellen Page would be a weak link in the film, but I was wrong. Also refreshing were the performances of lesser known talents such as Tom Hardy, Ken Watanabe and Dileep Rao. Michael Caine also has a small part and it's always good to see him.My biggest disappointment was Marion Cotillard, who I thought was rather one-dimensional here. But that may have been more of a symptom of her role. CINEMATOGRAPHYIn standard Nolan fashion, Inception is generally gorgeous and well- shot. I love the fact that Nolan relies less on CGI than the average Hollywood director and still understands the value of organic action, scenes and stunts.MUSICFrankly, I was under whelmed with the score, but less because of the score itself and more so because it seems too loud and overwhelming at times. There were even times when I couldn't even hear dialogue. This is either a mixing/editing problem OR possibly because I was sitting at the back of my theater and it seemed too loud.That complaint aside, the heavy dramatic cuts that prevail in the film are effective and add to the scenes.IN CONCLUSIONI found Inception to be exciting and captivating, and easily one of the better films of 2010. Where does it rank among the all time greats? I cannot say. I do consider it a top-flight science fiction film, but I struggle to think of it as a cinematic masterpiece because I really do think it out-thought itself on too many occasions.Do I suggest you go see it? Absolutely, no questions asked. In parting I'll leave you with....RECOMMENDATION FOR FIRST TIME VIEWERS:1. The first 10-15 minutes are a little disorienting. Be patient, things will fall into place soon enough.2. As mentioned above, try and avoid bathroom breaks. It really can be the difference.3. Sit in the middle or front of the theater. As mentioned above, either by design or because of my theater, the music was too loud at times and dialogue was lost.4. Be prepared to be absorbing a lot of input. You won't have much time to process that input until the film is over.

Caught up on my sleep
Don't miss this extremely boring, confusing and uninteresting film if you want to catch up on your sleep. Even if you're a fan of Leo's, he's not enough to keep your interest or concentration. This film is one of the worst, if not the worst I've ever seen. It doesn't draw you in and it leaves you empty. I left with a headache from all the sensory bombardment. Even worse, you're disappointed and angry that you've spent the money and wasted your time seeing this movie. Another super-hyped piece of crap from Hollywood. Don't believe the people who gave it positive reviews. It's just bad, bad bad.
LadyHol93 22 April 2012
Definitely One To Watch.
I'm not usually one for giving a 10 out of 10 mark, but having seenInception three times, i can definitely say it deserves full marks.Having read the reviews on here, i've decided i'm not going to write asynopsis since almost every other review has at least a simple summary. Many are a saying Inception was just boring; the characters didn't meshwell; it had so much potential; too much going on; too long; how can itbe 3'd best film ever, yada yada yada. I don't agree with any in theslightest. If you found it boring, then you didn't grasp the wholeconcept of the movie and the ideas it brought up.I first saw the trailer back in early July, was immediately intriguedbut went on holiday for 2 weeks. As i came back i learned it had beenon the Twitter trending topics the whole time i was away, so i decidedindefinitely that it was time i went and saw it myself. Having read anextremely short synopsis saying 'The film follows a man who steals, notmaterial objects, but ideas and dreams', i didn't know what to expect.But it was more then i had ever imagined it to be.Not once did i look at my watch whilst in the screening. And if i did,it was because i was checking how much longer was left as i didn't wantit to end. The story i personally think is simple. It doesn't take agenius to work it out. But its the intelligence within it that'sreleased from the the characters that make it what it is. Graphics arebrilliant, especially with buildings exploding here and there in slowmotion. Not over the top but without a doubt satisfying.I do have a soft spot for Ellen Page. Since i saw her in 'Hard Candy',i've been intrigued in the work she chooses. She was beyond perfect forthe role of Ariadne; an innocent, dedicated student who definitelyhelps the audience out with questions that needed answering. LeonardoDiCaprio, perfection in all it's glory. Perfect choice for Dom. Thecast as a whole was well put together. They each make their role theirown. I wouldn't have chosen any better in all honesty.But i can write as much as i want trying to persuade you to give thismovie a chance regardless of some mindless people's reviews. But thedecision does ultimately lie on your shoulders. Whether or not youthink you may enjoy this movie, i would give it a go in any case. Youmay be pleasantly surprised.I adored the soundtrack to this movie. All orchestrated. Purebrilliance. The impact it made on each scene was astounding. I highly,highly, highly recommend you listen to it whether you decide to watchthe movie or not.I don't think i can create a review that sums up it's impact it had onme. I could sit here and write all day how brilliant i thought it wasand talk about every minute detail that engrossed me, but then i wouldbe here all week. How do i bring this to a end though... An eventful,non-stop, intelligent, incredible, jaw-droppingly, engrossing film,with an ending that will leave you pulling your hair out and wantingmore. This is how i'd describe it. I do hope that they leave it at oneInception though. Making a second one would ruin it entirely for me.It's always a tragic mistake.I must also add that it took me three viewings to finally suss out allthe characters names! Complicated in that aspect.

Everything is so right in this mind-numbing and thrilling "experience"
First off let me explain my style of critiquing a movie. When I go seea movie I judge it by how entertained I was during and after the movie.Most of the time I am not bothered by little plot holes and slightlyabove average acting. However if I see extreme plot holes and terribleacting (Nicholas Cage) I will bash those aspects of the movie.From the very beginning of the movie it is obvious that ChristopherNolan has done it again by choosing the musical genius, Hans Zimmer.His sudden changes from epic and loud music to a faint violin or pianotruly take this movie to the next level. The final song fits soincredibly well with the ending of the movie that it has given mechills *five* out of *five* times...Clearly any movie that makes a person see a movie five times has goodacting, right? Correct. Such good acting that it doesn't even seem likeacting in the slightest bit. Leonardo DiCaprio and his supportingacting group act at such a high level that is seems that the personwatching the movie isn't even watching the movie. Every time I haveseen the movie I have felt like a member of Cobb's(DiCaprio) dreamcrew. All of the actors and actresses in this movie deserve an academyaward for this movie.You know what supports great acting? A story. An emotional story. Anemotionally thrilling story. An emotionally thrilling story that hastwists and turns. Inception is just that. The relationships betweenCobb(DiCaprio) and Mal(Cotillard), Cobb(DiCaprio) and Ariadne(Page),and Robert Fisher(Murphy) and his father(Postlethwaite) were soemotionally convincing that the entire audience would hold their breathwhen each pair would talk to one another. I can honestly say, withoutruining anything, that I was teary-eyed several times during the movie.The plot of this story is done so well that I have been left speechlessand confused after each of my 5 experiences with this movie.Stop reading this now and go watch Inception now...PS: Christopher Nolan, congrats on the greatest movie of all time. Ibelieve that your film will be the film that finally surpasses TheShawshank Redemption as the number one film on IMDb.

Slow, Boring, Silly, Too Long and Completely Pointless
After several weeks of hearing praise about Inception from friends,critics, and glowing reviews on IMDb, I finally gave in and took mywife to see it this weekend. I really wanted to love this movie as I ama huge fan of most Sci-Fi and Ellen Page. My wife usually lovesLeonardo and Ellen.We could not have been more disappointed with this train wreck of amovie. We were both bored and ready to leave the theater after thefirst 45 minutes but stuck it out till the end hoping for somethinggood that never came. We agreed that it was one of the WORST films wehave ever seen in our lifetimes.Yes - we did GET the gist of the convoluted plot, but the dialog andvisuals were at times laughable and silly as Christopher Nolanforce-fed the audience with course after course of nonsensicalexplanations of how dreams work, their layers, and the non-specifictechniques the poorly defined characters would use for "extraction" andtheir "inception" caper.I felt zero attachment to any of the characters in the story and didn'tmuch care about their fate. If you've seen the trailer you've seen ALLof the cool special effects nearly in their entirety. Themuch-ballyhooed scenes that involve floating people were justripped-off variations of similar scenes from The Matrix series.The only explanation I have for the popularity of Inception is mytheory that more than 70% of theater audiences fell asleep during thefirst 10 minutes and dreamed that they saw a good film.If you want to experience excitement in dreams, just lay down and takea nap. Don't waste your hard-earned cash on this boring mess.
