Well it was really interesting but I wouldn't call it the best ever. Still a good movie though.
This topic is locked from further discussion.
I liked it a lot but it definitely wasn't my favourite movie. And not my favourite movie by Christopher Nolan either.
I didn't like it that much, it just didn't hold my interest and I got bored. Maybe I'm missing something but the whole idea of the movie just left me thinking "that's it?". I'm not a fan of Christopher Nolan so it wasn't a huge surprise I didn't like it.PernicioEnigmaI love most Christopher Nolan movies but I agree with your feelings about Inception. Bored me and I kept hoping for more and when the movie finally ended I was annoyed.
[QUOTE="-Fromage-"]Interesting. You watched a movie that isnt in theaters and not on DVD yet.MafireeIt is still playing near a theater by my house....... Same here...
I wouldn't say that it's the best movie ever but it's one of MY best movies ever.
What twists are those, that you predicted I really want to know.Overrated imo, saw all the plot twists coming

Was the ending a dream or real world?I still can`t figure it out

It's an open ending. There's evidence towards the one theory, and there's evidence towards the other. I guess you can decide, i believe that he was awake for two reasons.
1) The totem toppled at the end, you could hear the sound.
2) Leo didn't care whether the totem toppled. As soon as he saw his children's faces he knew it was reality.
I also thought Shutter Island was better. Overall I found Inception to be a solid action movie with some new and interesting concepts that were portrayed by the movie medium extremely well. It has a 'wow' factor greater than a lot of movies I've seen recently.PS2_ROCKSActually, Paprika laid down the concept first when it came out a few years ago. At times they are strikingly similar, however Paprika takes a more wild approach to the idea.
And while this is off topic, no matter how many times I watch Shutter Island, it still comes off as entirely lousy.
[QUOTE="RaIn285"]You decide. Just like you decide if Andrew/Tom was crazy or not all along in Shutter Island. Some say he was surely crazy, but I'm still torn. Di Caprio was sure in some great movies this year.Was the ending a dream or real world?I still can`t figure it out

Di Caprio was sure in some great movies this year. He only makes good movies. Except when he did all those boyish romance movies back in the day. But now he's manlied up. He's probably the actor that's been in the most movies I like, close to Robert Downey Jr.: Blood Diamond Inception Shutter Island The Aviator The Departed He's an excellent actor. I think he gets a nomination for some kind of award for every movie.Was the ending a dream or real world?I still can`t figure it out

A movie that has a 7.4 Metacritic can't be the best movie ever made
Even this year, Toy Story 3 and The Social network got far better ratings across the board. I know critics score isn't everything, but even on rottentomatoes, it only managed to achieve a 87% , and 8.0 average, very far from 97% 9.0 average The Social network has.
I personally really like it though.
It was all a dream, nothing in that movie actually happened. Just thought you should know. ferrari2001Nobody would make a movie where nothing happened. Things happened in the movie. The character had a great journey and a lot was accomplished.
I would have to say that this is probably my favorite movie ever.CongressManStanI feel the same way. It's a movie made in 2010...that actually did stuff I've never seen done before. I didn't think that was possible anymore.
ANYBODY who says inception wasnt all that...did not understand the movie. the movie was prob to comlex for their minds to comprehend. there is a secret msg in this movie and only you can find. watch the movie more then twice and focus, concentrate. or here....movie of the century hands down.
i would take a bullet for Christopher Nolan...
Inception annoyed me and I ended up hating the movie. Get over it. Not everyone has to like the same movies and just because it was popular doesn't mean the people who diden't like it we're wrong. Just means everyone has different opinions which in the long run happens with every movie.ANYBODY who says inception wasnt all that...did not understand the movie. HaloReachGOTY
It was no where near as complex as you want to say it was. O my its all a dream... or is it... oooo Seriously I have no problem with people liking this movie but you are trying to make anyone who diden't like it sound stupid. Its a form of entertainment not everyone is going to like it.
Inception ended up being the only Christopher Nolan movie I have not liked. I loved Memento, Prestige, the Batman movies. All great.
I don't see how anyone would have thought it was too complex, they overexplained everything to a point it was patronizing. Also not everyone wants to figure out a riddle when they watch a movie, gonna have to trust me on that ;pANYBODY who says inception wasnt all that...did not understand the movie. the movie was prob to comlex for their minds to comprehend. there is a secret msg in this movie and only you can find. watch the movie more then twice and focus, concentrate. or here....movie of the century hands down.

Or maybe they just thought the whole concept was a bit silly and farfetched?
Dream security systems (in the form of bald generic bad guys, of course)? (Literal) safes in my dreams that happen to store away my deepest secrets? Being able to trick someone into thinking your someone else, just by acting out their mannerisms (even though the guy is still staring directly at you)?
There were some more things, but it's been awhile so I've forgotten them, but regardless, I didn't really buy any of it. I guess it works if you don't think about the rules Nolan's created too much, but I can't help but notice that it's just not solid.
I really liked it and watched it twice. Not the greatest movie of all time though. Watch it a second time and you start seeing how rediculous a lot of it is.
Social Network left me pretty much unimpressed. No interest to discuss it with anyone, no impression whatsoever. And i just saw it now.Good movie, but definitely not the best ever, or even the best this year. (The Social Network)
Fox-Call
the social network got a 8.3 with 38,231 votes. inception got a 9.0 with 231,173 votes. (imdb.com). the ppl have spoken. the social network is no where as popular as inception nor is it on the same level.Good movie, but definitely not the best ever, or even the best this year. (The Social Network)

i like how you edited. inception is perfectly planned out. the best of the best cant find plot holes in the movie.I really liked it and watched it twice. Not the greatest movie of all time though. Watch it a second time and you start seeing how rediculous a lot of it is.

Oh boy.
Just because something have a labyrithian plot doesn't make it complex.
The movie really didn't have any deep or thought provoking themes. It pretty much rode the wave of itsconcept and didn't offer any real intellectual or emotional stimulation.
Really, it was not much more than a high concept action movie.

You make good points. Its a fun ride, but its concepts were pretty dopey when you think about them.

(imdb.com). the ppl have spoken. the social network is no where as popular as inception nor is it on the same level. Are you serious? For one who cares about IMDB ratings considering so many people just post it as a 10 or a 1 some of them without even seeing the movie. On top of that you are trying to say that a 9.0 is that much better than an 8.3? Practically the same score especially when you consider Social Network has not been out nearly as long as Inception so of course not as many people have seen it.[QUOTE="Fox-Call"]

This type of argument should be saved for System Wars. Acting like an 8.3 is bad. *sigh
