You put Nolan with Cameron? I put Cameron with Lucas and Jackson. I put Nolan alongside Scorsese. | ||

Don't listen to trolls saying Inception is bad, clearly one of the better ones made in the last half decade. | ||

I was really wondering why ppl actually like this Movie so much.... The Plot as a whole didn't make much sense, too much stuff was just totally mindboggingly wrong (okay, it's Sci-Fi, but It annoyed me nonetheless), like time going slower when dreaming, stuff that happens when awake directly affecting the way you dream (like when the car was shaking, the dream-world shook too etc.) A lot of stuff was just stupid, like the new Architect being smarter then everyone else after a few days of getting thrown in this completely new world and the fact that they went on such a dangerous mission with a newb like this. Why didn't they just simply convinced this dude to sell his fathers company or whatever in the real world? I mean - stuff like that has worked before without going into someone elses dreams... -.-° There are a bunch of other things that made no sense to me and so far, even the hardcore-fans couldn't answer me properly... But I guess it's just another Sci-Fi-Movie that makes ppl think that the plot is incredibly good, just because it's so complex that they don't really understand it... The visuals and directing was pretty awesome though - too bad the story sucked. I'd be really curious to know what these questions are that you found unanswered. I personally had no problem putting every little detail together that originally wasn't clear after seeing it a second and third time. Did you see it more than once? A large portion of this movie was intentionally kept from being elaborated on too much. It gives the movie more of a mind-boggling effect while you watch and a greater replay value. I'm not understanding the merit of a lot of your concerns. You said, why didn't they convince the guy to break up his fathers empire instead of... make the movie? I mean, come on. It's fiction. You are supposed to let yourself be taken away with what the author builds the movie on. When someone writes a response like 'kickinhead' did they don't care to look for an answer. Some idiots actually think that a serious producer that is widely respected for making amazing blockbusters will not think of every small detail that might contradict the plot. This is just funny to me. People treat Nolan like someone who had time and money constraints and was trying to release his joint as soon as possible. I am positive he had a special crew just so that they could look for plot holes and inconsistencies all day long. A moron that watched the movie once after smoking a doobie will not be able to point out something significant. And to this guys comment about 'stuff that happens when awake affecting the way you dream' - this phenomena does happen a lot, at least to people that have dreams. The outside sensation becomes a part of a dream. | ||

Acting - A+. Fully believable on all fronts. Soundtrack - A++. I mean wtf. Amazing. Never felt that any piece was out of place. Plot - A. I've never seen Memento, so for me this concept was fresh, and a bit nostalgic of The Matrix as far as the whole argument of "perceived reality" goes. Still, I didn't notice any glaring plot holes that most movies like this contain. Pretty damn good job Nolan! ![]() Visuals - A. There was one scene where EllenPage flips the city on its ass, and where the way they walk onto it is a bit awkward, but other than that, everything was fucking eye candy. The hallway fight scene was pretty damn epic to say the least. Like Matrix "bullet-time" IRL. Pacing - A-/B+. Sorry to say, I started getting kinda impatient at the end. ![]() I've seen some of the posts in this thread and... Seriously, it's ok to say that you didn't like the movie, but to say that this movie "sucked" and in terms of complexity/quality is on the level of some random action flick from Shwarzenegger or Statham, I'm beginning to doubt the quality of opinions on TL in any movie thread (which I go to from time to time to see which movie I should watch). Chilllllll. :-) | ||

Characters kill with little consequence to save their peers from dream states, but when the wife commits suicide, convinced her reality isn't real, she is accused of abandoning her kids. Is the lesson here that women are bad at telling apart dream from reality? I can't tell. . Your post is a gem, I appreciate your opinions on the matter but I think you grossly misinterpreted this segment of the movie. The wife commits suicide in the real world, which had much stronger implications than waking someone up from a dream by shooting them. I don't remember an action scene in the real world in this movie... Was there one? They seemed to be shooting people that were just images from the dreams rather than real people anyway. You can make opinion posts about a movie without this type of evidence anyway, you don't need to explain why you have a certain opinion about a movie, thats the beauty of an opinion... If you choose to try to justify your opinions... Make sure you actually pay attention to the movie. The disparity demands an interpretation of why violence in Mal's case is not okay beyond simply, because it's reality. Why is it not okay to kill people when you are convinced reality is fiction? From a slightly philosophical perspective, Nolan created the world where ordinary values take on completely different meanings or rather have no value at all, his dream states are nihilistic, hence murder and suicide is acceptable and even desired, however upon returning to reality, Nolan suddenly injects the actions of his characters with very ordinary meaning like a pussy. Why not just go all the way? Why even attempt to dramatize the plot with conventional sentiment? It's interesting the way death is portrayed in Inception in how gigantic of a mess it is. YA BRO US ATHEISTS JUST KILL PEOPLE NO PROBLEM NO BIG DEAL | ||
