Quite simply I didn't like it, at all. Nothing about this movie appealed to me, except for Christopher Nolan as director and DiCaprio as one of the leads. Given the previous two outings from both of them (Batman Begins/Dark Knight for Nolan)(Shutter Island/The Departed for DiCaprio) I had high expectations and hopes for the movie to be great. I was firmly disappointed in every level, from one of the worst performances I've seen out of DiCaprio - a poor choice in Ellen Page for the role she was in, to quite simply way too over-the-top special effects to generally unclear character development. The plot line is also all over the place and even an hour into the movie they are still explaining rules, conditions, and effects of the dream world to Ellen's character, and the audience. If the movie had spent less time trying to explain itself the entire time and had just presented itself as is (like 2001 A Space Odyssey for example, it doesn't make excuses or try to explain its non-linear plot line, it gives it to you as is and the audience has to interpret it) it could have been far better than it was. The 'cliffhanger' ending is also probably the most cliche ending they could have mustered.

IMDB style rating - 5.5 /10

LOL Avatar is Pocahontas with 3d effects, seriuz.

A lot of hate lately in the posts, inception was pretty decent and at least a new idea for a movie coming out, rather than those horrible twilight movies - vampires glimmer in the sun? CAMONNN MANG

Pffft Avatar was Dancing with the Wolves meets Princess Mononoke. With a small hint of Pocahontas.

Seriously, over time we've come to accept plot holes for whatever reason.

I didn't realize how many plot holes this movie had until I saw it all summarized in this video.

I play Inception-style risk with my friends. With every battle that occurs we start a new game of risk to decide the winner of the battle.

My humble opinion: This was a superb movie, one of the best I've seen in a looong time. Understood it on the first watch, dunno what was so complicated for some.However I enjoyed it more the second time(as many have). Great movie!

Yeah, a lot of my friends called it a mind-f**k, but it wasn't too hard to follow.

The movie wasn't hard to follow whatsoever even if there were a few minor plot holes. That video is making a huge deal about it like they're morons or something.

For the amount of crap that comes out these days, Inception is completely above and beyond the majority of movies made in the past 10 years in Hollywood.

I've only seen it once in theaters but I plan on watching it again sometime soon, especially after hearing some of the songs from the movie again recently.. really made me want to see it again!

the reason this movie was so good for me.. is because dreams are some of the most interesting parts of my life. dreams are complex, why do we dream? i thought the kick thing was cool because its kind of true... the layers of the dreams was kind of lol.. but i think dreams in general are a really cool plot subject.

i see a lot of people here are caught in between love and hate just because its so popular. if you just accept it like you would fast and furious then there would be no problems.

Is there an official answer/position about the movie ending? i wanna know if it was a dream or not.


ps: i loved the movie.

There's an idea that Cobb's totem wasn't the top (a sort of con for anyone who might want to get a hold of it). Something about his wedding ring only appearing in dream sequences.


i thought the ending scene was reality because he said that he could never make his kids turn around in his dream. When Ellen Page's character goes to the floor of Cobb's dream where he is about the say goodbye to his kids.

yeah, the ending was real for sure. He only had memories of his kids playing and never seen them turning around, cuz its was memories in his house. When they leave the airport its no longer a dream cuz the first dream was in the plane, so its the real world.

Just saw the film, gotta say I thought it was pretty good.

As for the people arguing about the ending being real or a dream, you're really missing the whole point. It doesn't matter if it's real or not, and the fact that he walked away from his totem before he could ascertain that he was in reality shows that he doesn't care either. It's the whole perception = truth idea, and he just decides that he's going to stick with the "ending" whether or not it's the "Truth." I'm guessing that's why the director made it so ambiguous, to show that what's reality is solely decided by the person who is perceiving it.

Personally, at first I thought someone was invading his dreams using that girl architect. She kept delving into his dreams, asking about his past, and I thought all that train and kids stuff was put in there by her to throw him off....thought she was trying to dig up something about him and Moll or something. But...that theory pretty much died towards the end :/
