This movie...I can't get it out of my head, and I feel like (since Christopher Nolan is great at messing with your head) it's on purpose.

Wildly creative, edge-of-your-seat action, but so complex that it was difficult to keep up with...and only one of the characters is fully fleshed out.

The soundtrack to this movie drove me nuts. There is loud music CONSTANTLY playing (even in quiet moments), sometimes louder than the dialogue, and a couple of key players have accents making it impossible to understand what they are saying (due to the loud music). Even so, I was still able to follow the movie. In fact, the movie pretty much explains itself as it goes along. In the end, I was frustrated due to the loud soundtrack (could be the fault of the cinema I saw it in), but liked the film. I'm looking forward to seeing it on blu-ray where I can hopefully hear the dialogue better. I did not feel this movie was a masterpiece, as some are calling it, but it certainly was one of the best films I've seen this year. After seeing the really horrible "Splice" earlier this year, it was nice to see a well done Science Fiction movie.… Expand

I was delighted to see the early reviews for this movie roll in, perfect score after perfect score... my anticipation grew into something nearly uncontainable. Now I've seen it. And boy am I glad I did. I've seen about 10 movies in theaters this year so far... and this movie is, without doubt, the best (live action) movie I've seen in 2010. Some of the sequences were absolutely mind blowing, while others were so obvious, I was jealous that I didn't think of this movie first. Take the matrix, but instead of jacking into computers, jack into other peoples minds... simply(that's the key word) genius. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, the acting was great all around, the action was awesome, though not entirely original, and while the movie doesn't exactly keep you guessing, it does keep you on your toes. I don't know what movie some of these people here saw, but this was a highly entertaining movie. I would happily pay to see it again, and I would recommend it to anyone. Content notes: For a PG-13 movie, pretty tame on the language end of things... a few G-d's, but no F-bombs. And on the violence side of things, violent, but very little blood, and zero gore.… Expand

None of I thought this was a great movie that truly tried to be original, but because of all the praise it's getting from the audience and the fact that it's #3 right now on the IMDB Top 250, I feel I have to point to its flaws. None of which are really with the plot, as Nolan has spent 8 years ironing it out, but with dialogue, the fact that the movie is CONSTANTLY explaining things (whether its plot or backstory), and the idea that everyone remembers everything about a dream when they wake up and that when we decide something in a dream, somehow we're sure to carry that decision onto the real world. Also, the acting wasn't impressive, I mean they were all good but Ellen Page is just as good in the commercials as she is here. DiCaprio doesn't add anything, and the same can be said for Cotillard. They're both great, but nothing special. The same with the direction. There wasn't a single time I was impressed with Nolan's direction; too many quick cuts constantly telling the audience what to look at. The visuals were stunning at times, but only because of the CGI, not because of the camerawork. Lastly, I thought the pacing was a little off. For example, there's an important moment when the team gets their mark into a room with one of their own (an important moment in terms of the entire film), but then Nolan brings us back to DiCaprio and Page to talk about his backstory. Which he narrates for us the whole time. Again, using dialogue to explain instead of using action to show. Overall though this was a great movie because of the ideas used here and the fact that even though the acting and direction didn't add much it was still solid. Which is what this movie is, nothing more and nothing less, solid.… Expand

When it comes to reviews, like the one given by Mr. Nick Pinkerton, it's best to know [Ed: personal I can't imagine every positive, or even decent review, can be from people and critics who are just champions of Nolan's work. When it comes to reviews, like the one given by Mr. Nick Pinkerton, it's best to know [Ed: personal attack omitted] the man reviewing the film. It is the same Nick Pinkerton that described The Sorcerer's Apprentice as "fine PG malarky." Inception is by no means a perfect film, nor is it "drivel." It does, however, explore a subject matter which is difficult to do successfully in fiction. One weak spot of the film is the lack of engaging characters that seemed to make previous Nolan films great. Other than Cobb's (DiCaprio) storyline, there is little emotional investment in any of the other characters. However, Inception's success is in its ability to incite the viewer's introspection. I left the theater wondering about my own dreams and what they mean to my life. The mark of a good story is one that stays with you long after it's over. Inception awakens a childlike curiosity about your life, your relationships, your dreams, and how mysterious the subconscious truly is. To say people only like the movie because of the director's name, it is a gross misestimation of the general public. If you were only thinking about special effects when you left the movie, you paid too much attention to the wrong things. Unfortunately, some can not see the forest for the trees.… Expand

If you are looking for a movie that delivers action, emtion and a thought provoking plot, Inception is your ticket. Breaking down the elements: Plot - complex but traceable. You will not lose your mind, but it does make you question your own preception of the subconscious. B+ Acting/Characters - acting was ok to good, but the cast line up might have been too "Hollywood". No-name actors might have provided viewers a better chance to connect to the characters. C+ Theme - multiple, intertwinded themes that are overall good but a little convoluted. B- Setting - great CGI effects that adhere well to the plot of the story and its elements. Each new setting provided emition that was spot on to the feel of scene. A Audio - the music ran well with the plot line, but it was overall flat and not diverse enough to catch every potential out of each scene. B- Overall Grade: B+ (not averaged).… Expand

Wait, am I writing about Inception or Shutter Island? In all that I've read about Inception, I can't believe I haven't seen any one mention that similarity between the two. I think Shutter Island was the better movie, more ominous. Maybe Scorsese is still a better director than Nolan? I love Memento and think highly of the rest of Nolan's work. I wanted to love Inception, but couldn't. It didn't move me. I cry a lot at movies...a lot! But not at the end of this one. I didn't care if he ever saw his children's faces. And then there is the mystery of the spinning top...does it fall or keep spinning...is he in reality or still in dreamland? Even here Shutter Island prevails with a similar question...is he back in his delusions or is he pretending because he wants the lobotomy to end his pain? Inception was not the movie I hoped it would be, but at least it gave me a greater appreciation for Shutter Island and makes me want to see Memento again!… Expand

One way to reconcile these two, apparently conflicting notions is to restate the basic fact that inception is a movie--most notably a movie that takes place almost entirely in worlds of dreams. Where Nolan (may) go astray is that he attempts to layer a system of logic and physical laws over the realms of imagination and subconscious; any such system is, of course, untenable (though quite fun--as Freud/Jung/etc. also prove). At the same time, some such system is critical in order to create the game within which the movie plays. So all along the way the viewer is confronted with massive offenses to her reason: the main logic being that the imagination doesn't play by rules. Bring on the insults--because their packaged inside one freakin' cool box.… Expand

But if he continues to receive these accolades so undeservedly, I might just have to in order to balance out the hyperbole. In truth, this movie was farI don't want to call Christopher Nolan a hack director, because by all rights, he isn't. But if he continues to receive these accolades so undeservedly, I might just have to in order to balance out the hyperbole. In truth, this movie was far from terrible, and on paper, much like Nolan's The Dark Knight, this film is my wet dream. As a fully realized epic depicting a futuristic world with equal parts sci fi, sophistication, dream science, and suave- all made possible by near-perfect special effects and amazing camera work- how could it go wrong? The story follows, primarily, Dom Cobb (DiCaprio), a mercenary agent of sorts working for various private companies to extract information from other company leaders' minds wile they sleep. Naturally, to give him a backstory, Cobb is also seeking redemption from the United States for some unknown reason, and has been forbidden to returning to his children due to exile. As the story progresses, Cobb is given the opportunity to get a clean slate, if only he can successfully build a team of people to go into the mind of the head of a major executive and plant an idea instead of extracting one- inception. Throw in an excellent cast of characters, how incredibly cool does this sound? How does any of it not hit home? And in fact, it doesn't really go wrong- perhaps by the sheer merit of the aforementioned ingredients and premise. However, three major, glaring problems hold this film back from realizing true greatness. It's risky for me to bring you, the reader, three levels into my psyche, but it's necessary. We need to go deeper. 1. Logistics and plot holes. On the first plane, we have the logistics of the movie. For all the praise this film is getting, you would think that this film was immune to pitfalls as basic as logical story arc progression. Unfortunately, it isn't. In fact, this film is simply riddled with myriad examples of nonsensical rules that are set up and broken all within the two hour run time. At the beginning of the movie, much like that little indy film The Matrix, rules are set up explaining how extraction/inception works, and how the dream world (parallel to the Matrix) operates. Well, that's great- that's just what you want. To establish rules for an alternate reality is necessary in a new film. The issue is that all throughout the movie, Nolan decided it would be great for characters to continually add new rules while simultaneously breaking the old rules. If you set rules, don't break them shortly thereafter. This breaks the trust of the audience, and the believability of the world you created. Without ruining anything, the second half of the movie is essentially a multilayered dream. In order to get out of each level, one must get a "kick" to move up until you reach complete consciousness- usually easiest to do this by getting killed or killing yourself. However, due to various extenuating circumstances, the multilayered dream won't allow for such an easy wake-up. Instead, dying brings you down lower in the dream state to a subconscious realm called Limbo. Way to switch up the rules. That would be fine I suppose except then, simply killing oneself or getting killed in Limbo kicks you all the way back into reality. Wait- so then what's the big deal about getting stuck in Limbo? This annoyance comes along with a slew of other made up plot devices which feel completely synthetic and appear to be used for sheer convenience. Shame on you, Mr. Nolan- leave that hack style for the bad directors. 2. Violation of accepted rules of dream science Okay, I'll keep this brief because I'm a nerd and most everyone else doesn't care about this. However, I say it is relevant because Nolan professes to love the idea of dreams and how they work. There is a field of study around dreaming, and more specifically, "lucid dreaming"- wherein someone is dreaming but is conscious and acting with the knowledge that you are in a dream world. This has been well documented and there are official rules governing how a lucid dream works. Nolan is free to take liberties with dream sharing, something that is not real and is a great concept for him to invent and talk about. However, lucid dreaming is not science fiction- it's real. And in that dream science, the rules are as follows: A. To find out you are dreaming, check fine print on signs, books, etc. It will usually be nonsensical or a blur, because your mind won't fill in that level of detail. B. You may also check any digital clock to see if it is unreadable or rapidly changing, another indication you are dreaming. C. Flipping a light switch should do nothing in a dream- light levels are usually unchangeable in the dream state. The worst part is definitely that Nolan managed to follow rule C. throughout the dream sequencesâ… Expand

I'd like to keep my review rather to the point.

Pros: 1. its theme - dream is a fascinating topic to say the least. There are a lot of unknowns in the dreamworld. 2. its plot - there are several sweet twists and unpredictable turns. 3. itsI'd like to keep my review rather to the point.

Pros:
1. its theme - dream is a fascinating topic to say the least. There are a lot of unknowns in the dreamworld.
2. its plot - there are several sweet twists and unpredictable turns.
3. its edgy drive - although you know what's coming next but still you feel jumpy about it.
4. its fast storyline - the story moves fast from one scene to another, making the viewers feel like on a roller coaster ride. At times, it's hard to keep up, even at the second viewing.
5. its sophistication - there is a lot of information to remember and digest. This is the very thing the modern moviegoers are after, I believe.
6. its realism - okay, pun intended. The movie explains (or at least tries to) the ins and outs of what dream is about and how it functions, some of which are very familiar with and dear to us.

Cons:
1. its poor character development - although the acting was convincing enough there was not enough of character development. I wonder how many people really felt connected to the main character(s) after watching the movie. Yes, the movie talks about emotional struggles but it was more of an action film, if you ask me.
2. too many distractions - I found that the movie had more than enough characters than necessary. They may play some roles in the plot but they seemed more of distraction than anything else. I wish the movie was more focused.
3. a bit preachy - I noticed the characters would explain things about the dreamworld and then the exact things happen later in the movie. I'm afraid, Inception overused this trick.

In conclusion, its theme is fascinating but its delivery is not without room for improvement.

I highly recommend you to go and read Somewhere carnal over 40 winks, if you dig this kind of flicks.

Cheers!… Expand

I caught this from the movie: In a dream, you can be the center of your own universe but there are many black holes that can trap you and keep you away from the "reality" to stay and live in your own world without noticing the irreality. People who was in comma can support the notion.
The simple idea of traveling from dream to a deeper dream can be absurd, but many people has "dreamed" themselves "dreaming", which Nolan used to makes us think about the life and the next step after death. I can recommend it.

Why is it that when a movie is hard to explain, and even harder to understand, people immediately think they are brilliant if they sit through it and then leave the theatre thinking..."Whoa...that was some heavy s**t." Trust me. You are still far from ever being a candidate for Mensa if you "love" this movie. I did not "love" it. I did, however, enjoy it and would recommend it for people that want to, as another reviewer wrote here, have a "good mind f**k." You just have to be in the right frame of mind, either naturally or herbally induced. While the movie is overrated, it is also very good, paricularly from a visual/special effects standpoint. The idea of the story is also very intriguing, but totally unbelieveable. I love a good science fiction film as much as the next person, but enjoy them more when they are somewhere within the grasp of reality. This one fell way outside the box for me in that category. I didn't agree with the lead casting. While they are both good actors, Leo (even with facial hair) and Joseph look too young to be the characters they portray here. I know. I know. By now you would think I could accept DiCaprio in more mature roles, but definitely had a hard time with him here. I am a big fan of Chris Nolan, but let's face it, not every movie can be a home run. Despite the word on the street, this one is a double (or triple at best) and that is certainly not a bad thing. It just isn't the "classic" many are making it out to be. BTW, with regards to the ending being real or a dream? I didn't really care and that is the true test for me. The film was too full of gimmicks, exotic locales and "what if" scenarios to keep me interested to that degree. In the end, it is just a movie, albeit a good one...but far from great.… Expand

Every problem I have with this film is minor and/or can easily be overlooked. The film has an originalOften when I watch a film I’m often taken out if it by major issues I have with the film from characters and story but this isn’t the case. Every problem I have with this film is minor and/or can easily be overlooked. The film has an original concept that leads to some fantastic action scenes and an amazing climax. Leonardo DiCapprio embodies the character he plays to the point when I’m not thinking to myself that’s Leonardo DiCapprio that’s the Inception character. The score and direction are great. Most of the characters don’t have much too them and the score is a little too much like Dark Knight and is overshadowed by the wakeup music but those are issues that I can easily overlook. It is rare that I can just sitback and enjoy a film without thinking of critiques, the score I’ll give it, etc because Inception has microscopic problems. This film is awesome it blew me away and truly ranks as not just a great film for Nolan to add to his resume but one of the greatest films out there. I loved watching this movie and I can’t wait to see it again. With more and more viewings this could become one of my favorite movies. With Nolan having a film this awesome under his belt I cannot wait for Interstellar because films like this prove how awesome of a filmmaker he is. Then again with Nolan setting the bar so why the question is raised how do you top that. Regardless Inception is amazing brilliant concept, brilliant direction, brilliant acting. See this film if you haven’t already.… Expand

I'm confused. I treat going to a movie like I treat the day when I awake...if I get too excited or have high expectations or preconceived notions, I set myself up for possible disappointment. We just bought our tickets, put our butts in the seats, and let it play. I found Inception a thrill ride, and much better than the blockbuster drivel that passes for entertainment these days. If you want human interaction that builds drama, this isn't the movie for you. If you want a no holds barred action flick that is highly inventive, breathtaking, and challenges you to pay attention in our world of texters and multi-taskers; put your money down and enjoy Inception.… Expand

It will allow you to questionChristopher Nolan is no stranger to making movies that will send the audience in utter confusion (i.e Memento). Inception is one of the movies that will have audiences thinking long after the movie is over. It will allow you to question your surroundings, and will cause you to question what reality truly is. The production value of the film is incomprehensible as almost every aspect of the movie is fully-thought out. Hans Zimmer has been the soundtrack producer for previous Nolan films, and here delivers a soundtrack that compliments the action and suspense of the movie as a whole. Perhaps one of the highlights the film is the ensemble of actors. Within the ensemble are three Oscar nominated actors (Di Caprio, Page, Watanabe) and two winning individuals (Cotillard and Caine). There is no doubt that it is well-acted and it adds to the reality of the film, where in fact should be absent. The minimal flaw in the film is that Nolan attempts to put too much to try to confuse its audience, but in the end this is just a small flaw in an immensely great film… Expand

When I saw it, I liked it but didn't love it like so many others. I tend to see things black or white, so the story that so many people have blogged and argued and were confused about seemed pretty straight forward to me. In fact, the characters explain what is going to happen when they are inside a dream, then when they dream it does happen. Another problem I had with the film is that I didn't care about any of the characters, so I didn't care if they died or not. A better film than this one in the same genre would be "Dark City". That one blew my mind AND I cared about the characters. I also thought the loud soundtrack sometimes muted the dialogue. Overall a good film with great special effects that might get better for me with repeated viewings.… Expand

A sci-fi heist film with a unique concept that allows it to be more complex and artistically inclined than most other blockbusters while still delivering the same kind of thrills. The premise of people entering other's dreams and stealingA sci-fi heist film with a unique concept that allows it to be more complex and artistically inclined than most other blockbusters while still delivering the same kind of thrills. The premise of people entering other's dreams and stealing information from their memories while they're asleep could have turned Inception into a dorky, more niche bit of science-fiction, but in Christopher Nolan's capable hands it is executed with depth and intelligence in areas that it could have been much schlockier.

On top of having flashy action and mind-bending set pieces all brought to life by Nolan's always excellent visuals and cinematography, the film has a lot of heart and soul as well thanks to it's protagonist's quest for redemption and struggle with regret. The way the plot handles memories, the subconscious, and our perceptions of reality are pretty brilliant and engages the viewer mentally rather than solely letting them gawk at the spectacle of the characters duking it out with their target's subconscious projections while the dream world around them literally turns upside-down.

I'm surprised to say that I do have some complaints with the acting. I found Leonardo DiCaprio to be a little wooden and Marion Cotillard's performance as a mentally unstable person felt forced. Everyone else is fine, although their characters aren't always given that much to do. The standout of the cast is Tom Hardy who was a real scene stealer.

I can't praise Nolan enough for creating this high-octane action movie that he took the time to give a real brain to. The pace never lets up so there's a constant sense of forward movement. The emotional effectiveness of some scenes and themes is somewhat lessened thanks to some disappointing acting, but overall we are still able to sympathize with the lead thanks to the poignancy of the writing itself. Inception is a mind-blowing ride from one of the most talented director's currently working and is well worth watching. A stunning example of what can become of action films when supported by a strong mental backbone.… Expand

What Nolan knows how to do isWhat is given is a multi-layered cake of suspense elements, and this is what Nolan is truly gifted in. Many complained that the third act of The Dark Knight had far too many moving parts, and became exhausting. What Nolan knows how to do is pile on amounts of suspense that build on each other naturally, as opposed to employing cheap gimmicks. In many ways, it's a lot like the climax of Back to the Future: Many different variables that can go wrong, all of which affect each other, thus re-organizing the plan every few minutes. If you're not worried about Marion Cotillard showing up and ruining everything, you're worried about the amount of time (three of which to keep track of), multiple threats of life, and inner-turmoil of a lead character is interesting enough to follow throughout. With a narrative this confusing, coupled with existential ideas to think about (but not too many that it becomes pretentious), Inception requires multiple viewings, and unlike some of Nolan's other movies, which got less interesting with each viewing, Inception becomes more interesting, more entertaining, and more rewarding. And, after an entire decade of stupid Shyamalan-inspired plot twists, Inception redefines it: Inception's plot twist is that it may or may not have even had a plot twist! You've officially been mind-f**ked.… Expand

Inception explores the depths of the human consciousness and bends the rules of everything logical. Dreams, obsessions and basic human aspects are a classic trait, and it never fails to deliver excitement from both from the tempo and the flawless characters. A stunning, ambitious mind-bending movie of art, that might not work all the way due to its over-complexity and a perhaps too ambitious plot, so the dialogs can be a bit too informational. But that's not something everyone will notice, and not something you should harken too. Because it's a classic sequel of the Nolan-franchise.

Inception is one of those movies you just can't keep your eyes off of. What kept me watching was the very interesting plot of people using machines that can put you in the mind of another person to retrieve information that is very important to them, and it is done so by trained specialists called "Extractors" who go into the subject's mind and retrieve the information that they want. For me, the whole dream within a dream idea confuses the living **** out of me, besides, that was the only thing I didn't like this movie. One of the things I like about this film is the all-star cast, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ken Watanabe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, and Micheal Caine were unbelievably perfect at nailing their roles. The other thing I really like about this film is the choice of the director for the film, Christopher Nolan, the man who directed the entire Dark Knight Trilogy which was amazing which made me like the choice of director.
Inception is a amazing movie with a great cast and a great director, but it would be nice if they made the plot a little bit easier to understand, then I would know what is going on half the time.… Expand

process.
It is tense and thrilling, and intriguing to take a ride into people's dreams. The
goal of the story is sometimes lost inside all the action scenes and simultaneous events and for
a time felt like watching a video game where bad guys and traps continuously spawn. I stopped
worrying for the characters for about a half hour, because all the jumping around of scenes
melted my brain. The good part of the movie is that it recovered from the craziness and did a
good job of bringing the story home. There were some flaws in how Leonardo's character treated
others, which made his character a little unbelievable. But I really enjoyed Ellen Page's
character as the observant newbie who asked all the great questions about the dream world, and
Tom Hardy and Joseph Gordon Leveitt were cool soldiers who have your back. I may enjoy this
more with a second watching since I think this is the type of movie that has enough depth and rewatchability even if you know what is happening from the beginning.… Expand

Inception is no other than a runner-up for best movie of 2010. Inception did what it took to become the most popular movie of 2010 and it's a good one alright.

Christopher Nolan is easily one of hollywood's most skilled directors. The plot of this movie is very interesting as is its cast. Nolan lays the story through each parts of the film that gradually connect to a whole.

Inception which boasts an a list stellar cast is a phenomenal story about thought, how it can be manipulated, form the foundation of who we are and is far from reliable. Dicaprio is stunning as the guilt ridden extractor who's as unstable as he is proficient or tom hardys charismatic con man who invites much needed comedy into the sci-fi epic. The script is concise, intelligent and truly in a league of its own in terms of ambitious complexity. The directing is as exceptional as you would expect from Christopher, focusing on right detailed shots,muted tones,melancholy piano heavy scores and ambitious endings. What I did find to be a flaw was how the action sequences in the peak of the film feel lackluster.… Expand

The whole idea and concept of dreaming being made into a movie with multiple layers. It doesn't always tells you what the movie means, leaving the audience to think for themselves about what was meant in that scene. The movie is full of unpredictable twists, taking science fiction to the next level, taking a little thing as dreaming and turning it into a theory and concept. Nolan picked a great cast for the movie (Leonardo DiCaprio, Cillian Murphy) which is one of the foundations of the greatness of this movie along with the script and Nolan's cinematography, great use of CGI and the idea of dreaming. Despite it being science fiction, the movie isn't overly exaggerated as it could've been and tries to be as realistic as possible whilst keeping the audience engaged and having the right amount of action. Also not to forget to mention the music composed by Hans Zimmer which is absolutely amazing and made for one of the best endings to a movie in my opinion. The ending got people talking for a long time debating if Cobb is back to reality or if he's still in a dream and that is when you know the movie was done right.… Expand

And now I have literally no idea what he wasI learnt about this movie from Varun Dhawan's interview, where he said that Dilwale is like Inception. Everyone was mocking him and I didn't know why. And so I decided to check this movie out. And now I have literally no idea what he was smoking. This movie is a masterpiece even by Hollywood standards. It will continue to be known as an iconic movie for generations to come.

The story is based on Cobb, a thief who uses people's dreams to to learn about their secrets and then uses them to steal from them. Because of the movie's title I thought that the entire movie is taking place in a dream and when they are actually shown to go in a dream it is supposed to be an inception. It was only after I read about it on Wikipedia that I understood that the main movie is taking place outside of dreams.

Christopher Nolan did the absolute right thing by using practical effects instead of CGI. And it was also a pretty genius move to show your dreams that can actually happen in reality. Although many of the dreams shown in the movie look more like James bond films instead of actual dreams, I wouldn't just on that perspective since this is a subjective idea. Most probably many people have such kinds of dreams and they were the ones who were kept in mind when writing the story. But overall this was a great idea since the whole idea is that Cobb steals from the dreams of people and they would not realise that it is a dream only if it is made to be shown as realistic as possible.

The characters have also been explored very well. Cobb's wife used to be his partner in crime, but after a while she got so much addicted to the inception machine that she started thinking that the real life is also a dream and thus she committed suicide thinking that she will be able to meet cob in his real life. Cobb has been holding himself responsible for his wife's death and does wants a chance to correct his mistake. He has recruited a college student learning architecture and that provides a good way to give exposition without making it look either forced or confusing.

The only problem I had with this movie was the amount of talking that happens. In every scene there is talking, talking and even more talking, whether it is the the real world scenes or the dreamscapes. It was really boring to see them talk in a movie that is supposed to be about going into other people's dreams and stealing their knowledge and memories. The amount of exposition also seemed unnecessary and it felt like it was only meant to explain the people who are very slow to understand. But other than that I didn't have any problem.

Overall I would say that Inception is one of those movies which define the decade as well as the the potential of Christopher Nolan's storytelling. This movie is a perfect blend of looking legendary and having mostly used practical effects. I considered to be the best Christopher Nolan movie after The Dark Knight.… Expand

The way in which the storyline is structured is very impressive and the casting has been carefully thought through which is something most blockbuster films have failed to accomplish in recent years. Page's performance as Ariadne is debatable but nothing worth 'over-ranting' about. The CGI in the movie is magnificent but isn't over done, making it very appropriate and entertaining when used. One thing is for certain and that is that Nolan has definitely brought the best out of the actors in Inception, particular Tom Hardy who plays the role of Eames near enough pitch perfect. With a combination of stars, effects, performances, action, strong narrative & superb direction, it's hard to pick out any major faults with Inception. A must, must see.… Expand

"Inception" is a mind-bending and complex action thriller that will likely engage -- and most probably confuse -- people who enjoy that material. This is a must for fans of Christopher Nolan, sci-fi, thrillers, and action.

Good just not brilliant. Maybe I've watched too much science fiction to be overawed with the concept. The plot seems quite simple in my ways but it's just repeated within its unnecessarily convoluted structure.

With the advent of the Internet, the moviegoer has the option of going on-line for a plot synopsis, prior to seeing a movie; an option that was unavailable in 1984 when "Dune" patrons were instead handed pamphlets by theater employees to With the advent of the Internet, the moviegoer has the option of going on-line for a plot synopsis, prior to seeing a movie; an option that was unavailable in 1984 when "Dune" patrons were instead handed pamphlets by theater employees to help orientate the uninitiated masses not familiar with the Frank Herbert serial of sci-fi novels. Since most modern-day trailers lay out entire narratives in five minute encapsulations, anyway, and often for movies with stories so intellectually undemanding a small child could follow, it's ironic that the preview for "Inception" would be the one coming attractions spot which contains no spoilers or overt exposition, because arguably, the moviegoer may need a signpost or two. Unlike the dream logic that David Lynch employs, in particular, "Lost Highway" and "Mulholland Drive", films with multiple interpretations, this Leonardo DiCaprio vehicle probably has just one. The inherent confusion that distinguishes Lynch's best work is enjoyable because his narratives are coherently incoherent, while being lost in "Inception" can be a frustrating experience since this wildly ambitious, but deeply flawed would-be masterpiece is the very opposite; it's incoherently coherent. If the filmmaker updated the studio's hard copy gambit of yesteryear by instructing moviegoers to a website before viewing this somewhat derirative(David Cronenberg's "Existenz", Michael Gondry's "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", heck, even Joseph Rubin's "Dreamscape"), but admirable follow-up to "The Dark Knight", then Ellen Page, who is stuck with the chore of playing the film's tour guide, would be free to develop a personality. At one point, Adriane asks, "Wait a minute; whose subconscious are we supposed to enter?" She practically breaks the fourth wall. It's a good question, because we're not sure either.… Expand
