Inception

[king_tanner 84]

I figured this movie deserved its own thread. It is getting rave reviews.

[Iphonenkinder 558]

It's the movie of the summer, really good.

I think you mean "Christopher Nolan...nuff said."

[brvheart 1,752]

Ebert gave it the coveted 4 stars.

I went to the midnight showing and thought it was great.

I should get to see it in 2-2.5 weeks, inlaws are taking the little guy for a week. Since having a baby getting to go to the movies is like getting remarried.

Really liked Inception and Leo was good as usual.I found it to be very intense and I was into it!

[YonYonson 156]

there are no words to describe how amazing it was.

[SuitedAces21 2,722]

i mean it was just out-fuckin-standing.

[digitalmonkey 929]

Saw it yesterday...it's very very good.

Okay, now I've more time to think about it.Stuff that I liked:

When Cobb (Leo) is first describing the dream process to Ariadne (Ellen Page) in the cafe in Paris, I really liked how blowing up the street didn't look real. I thought it was a great example of using cg clean look and using it to move the story forward. Relatedly, I liked the practical effects as well--the rotating hallway, the wire work before the sleeping characters get into the elevator, and unless I'm mistaken, a bunch of the car chases looked real, too.I love the way Nolan (or Wally Pfister?) shoots architecture and cityscapes. I know they shot some in LA, I wish more of it was instantly recognizable.

Stuff that I didn't like:

I think Ellen Page was the weak link to the movie. I didn't believe she was a legendary student of some mysterious discipline. She doesn't give me the impression of the necessary intelligence or charisma that her role requires. This movie felt like a war against the environment, or circumstances, without a strong flesh and blood antagonist. I wished the characters or actors had more chemistry. Gordon-Levitt and Page are both good looking and likable. Why did their kiss feel so flat?

In general, I don't respond that strongly to alternate reality movies. I liked this movie, but I never felt like I loved it.

Nolan went really deep in the mind on this one. And boy, did it deliver. Also, Ellen Page looked really damn good.

It looked flat because it wasn't a real kiss to the Ellen Page character. She was doing it to divert the subconcious.

Saw it in Imax earlier today, it was really good.

Call me old fashioned but

I think if you put two good looking, well dressed young people in a stressful situation, and they have to use sex as a distraction--it should feel hot.

[brvheart 1,752]

I felt like it was inserted only to add a touch of humor to the scene and had nothing to do with chemistry. I liked it.

Fantastic! Amazing movie

[mk 11]

thought it was sweet, but kinda felt like casting watanabe (i.e. a non-native english speaker with a heavy accent) as a character who's responsible for a bunch of early exposition was maybe a mistake, but i think i followed everything pretty ok./racismfor a good laugh, read that amazing filmic idiot rex reed's review. the comments are pretty hilarious too.

Wow, that critic is a real piece of work.
