So I went to see Inception the other night. I actually enjoyed this mind maze of a movie. Incept by definition means to take in. WELL this movie might be a lot for one to take in if you weren’t expecting to see this type of film. I was ready for it. The story is generally about creating an idea and planting it in someones mind through entering their dreams. BUT there are effects, repercussions, levels and rules of this the dreamworld upon entering. It’s complex in nature because naturally we are as human beings but I thought everything was tied in together really well and didn’t seem too fabricated. There were points of restlessness for me as I doubt they could have shortened something with the number of intertwined sub-story lines, however, if this is the summer blockbuster I’m not mad at all. A little drawn out and a lack of character development but definitely something stimulating, well written with good acting, and for me a second movie visit for this one now that I know how it ends, is most likely in the near future. Christopher Nolan FTW 4/5
I read this thinking you would have loved it. Glad to see i can still sort of respect your opinion on films. What are all these sub plots though? Didn’t seem fabricated? huh?
didnt use sub-plots bc they actually are related but you have the mishap in the beginning with the first architect, Leo’s story, and the Corporate one. Point was how could they have made the movie any shorter bc each one was tied to the other? Fabricated because they presented dream-sharing, limbo, and inception as if they could be real with seemingly logical explanations. It’s not all bullshit as they drew from real subject matter like anything else, but most of it is. I probably should have put this stuff in the review but it’s a review so if anyone hasn’t seen it, this is mindless chatter anyway.
Yeah I was busting your ballz yak.
I’m sorry , But I had to walk out of it. I thought it was fucking awful. II’ve never had to step out of a movie that badly. Seems like Everybody else thought it was sick.
