Inception - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 07-17-2010 Don't have morons talking behind you at this movie like we did. It's a very deep movie and you have to pay close attention to follow the action. And there is plenty of action along with a lot stuff that just hurts your head as you try and make sense of it. It's kind of a simple idea. It's the permutation and the depth of the ideas that make it interesting. All I know is I need to go see the film again. Re: Inception - El Dingo - 07-19-2010 We really enjoyed this too. I had some issues with the pick-and-choose which environmental variables affect which conciousness (i.e. weightlessness in one layer does not occur in other layers). The FX were amazing, especially when you know many of them were achieved on a set in real-time as opposed to CGI and green-screen. Check out this Popular Mechanics article. Definitely worth seeing on the big screen. If I'd known it was going to be so over-the-top I might have gone for iMAX, but the non-action scenes of a giant moping Leonardo DiCaprio would have been frightening. Re: Inception - Greg_phpbb3_import1 - 07-19-2010 I actually tried to get on this film and know the guy responsible for building the train. I was shocked for the amount of effort that had to go into building it compared to how little time it was on the screen. Re: Inception - The Queen - 07-19-2010 My favorite part of this film: it wasn't in 3-D!!!! Thank you, Mr. Nolan!!! Re: Inception - thatguy - 07-25-2010 I enjoyed it. There's been a lot of talk that it's too cerebral for American audiences, but it's got enough shooting and crashing things to keep the average joe entertained and when I saw it, the collective reaction at the end of the film was shared by everyone, so they all got the concept (although, this is Santa Cruz. Can't speak for middle America or elsewhere). Reminded me a bit of Flatliners. Also of the Python episode with the cycle trip around the world. On the trip, Mr. Prither ends up in some back of beyond prison. He falls asleep and when he wakes up, he's back at home with his mum. He excitedly says that it was just a dream and his mum says "No dear, this is the dream. You're still in the prison cell..." --tg Re: Inception - thatguy - 07-30-2010 An alternate Inception trailer...

Plus, he stole from Calving and Hobbes, too. That Bastard. Unless there is someone in my dreams making me think these things. it was entertaining - Drunk Monk - 08-17-2010 I don't think I was as taken by it as you all. Perhaps it was spoiled for me by all the good reviews. The best part of a non-linear film like this is in the end, you can see how it all fits together. In the end of Inception, there still seemed to be some gaping holes like why it was the old Saito in the first dream and I wasn't engaged enough to solve them. Nevertheless, it was entertaining and I enjoyed it while I was watching it. It didn't strike me as deep at all, more like film candy, but that's okay. I like film candy too. I liked the triple level climax a lot - it's almost as if Nolan started with that concept and wrote out from it. The dream sequences were rather mundane which is probably what let me down the most. I had the same problems as ED with consistency in the rules of the dream, especially when that one guy dreams up the bigger gun. If that's allowable, well, you can dream up a bigger anything. Also the whole band of dream defenders didn't really work for me - that was way to underdeveloped to seem feasible within the story. Apart from the 0G sequence, which was my favorite part, it wasn't very psychedelic. I wanted a far more interesting dream landscape. It should have tapped nightmares. It reminded me of Dreamscape with Dennis Quaid and Kate Capshaw. I think I liked that better because it had that villain guy from The Warriors wielding numchuks. That's what this film needed - numchuks.

But overall, I did enjoy it while watching it. It was quite entertaining. Re: Inception - El Dingo - 08-24-2010 You know what would have rocked? A Freddy Krueger cameo. That would have rocked. Freddy Kruger with numchuks - Drunk Monk - 08-24-2010 That would have been better than a Pink Floyd pig in Nanny McPhee.
