Inception *No Spoilers!* - Discussion thread L0gan Send a noteboard - 17/07/2010 02:57:23 AM
Saw Inception this afternoon. Absolutely visually stunning. I haven't read any reviews about the movie so I don't know what the critic are saying. The story line I thought was very detailed and well layered. I will say that you better be prepared to pay close attention for 2 hours and 20 minutes or you can quickly miss things.

I can't comment on the acting other than to say that every actor and actress meshed well in my opinion and noone detracted from the story. I guess for me that's favorable commentary on the actors. The action sequences were superb and nothing really seemed over the top or put in just to show off some latest CGI idea.

So I will post this review spoiler free and as the subject line states: I Highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes to be engaged by story, plot, nuance rather than sitting zombie style with eyes open; brain turned off.

Admin: Feel free to discuss including spoilers in your replies.

THAT's what I'd seen him in... Zalis - 17/07/2010 11:36:34 PM 805 Views
He was in G.I. Joe as well. Did an excellent job as the Cobra Commander. *NM* Bookwyrm - 18/07/2010 02:58:33 AM 481 Views

I felt there were two ways they could have gone with this movie beetnemesis - 20/07/2010 06:26:34 AM 940 Views
I thought it was smart of Nolan to use architects in manipulating/exploring the mind instead of Bookwyrm - 20/07/2010 08:03:42 AM 987 Views
nice theory Foxhead - 21/07/2010 12:20:21 AM 949 Views

It makes sense, but eventually feels like over-thinking the entire film. Zalis - 21/07/2010 06:37:20 PM 921 Views

Dream sharing tech and Architects explained ... Bookwyrm - 21/07/2010 06:23:02 AM 1135 Views
If Dreaming was mainstream enough to be taught in schools, Ariadne would have known about it. Tim - 22/07/2010 10:12:50 AM 1026 Views
...or did he? Aemon - 25/07/2010 07:24:22 AM 1087 Views
They never explain the technology because IT'S ALL A DREAM. Kronin al'Sulc - 31/07/2010 06:05:39 AM 1032 Views

Nah. By the movie's rationale, that couldn't be. Aemon - 25/07/2010 06:55:33 AM 926 Views
That's what they want you to think. Gher - 14/08/2010 07:15:49 PM 1114 Views

The latter. Ghavrel - 23/07/2010 01:34:24 AM 747 Views
Even tho my theories support the former, I believe it Bookwyrm - 23/07/2010 03:00:55 AM 887 Views
Objective answer=Neither. Subjective Answer = Spin Sports_Gambler - 23/07/2010 03:15:43 AM 837 Views
Um... No. The drop theory is perfectly sound. Ghavrel - 23/07/2010 09:23:56 AM 926 Views
Nope. Here's why.... Sports_Gambler - 24/07/2010 02:28:03 AM 863 Views
