You're right - I would say that after one burrito. exactly the same.

Saw it tonight and it thought it as a very good movie. Enjoyed it far more than Hurt Locker, which I really didn't think deserved an Oscar.

I love the fact that Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who played Arthur, has been around acting since 1988 and I have never heard of/seen before, yet he was perfect for the role he played.

Saw it last night, nearly flawless movie and completely unique. My only complaint is that something from Nolans directing style always irks me, I don't what it is. I find 'the dark knight' completely unwatchable now, even though I loved it at first.

Honestly, saying foreign films are awful is just so stupid it's mind boggling. To suggest that all these movies from all different genres from all different countries are awful is borderline ######ed.

Got sand stuck somewhere?

Just got back from seeing it. Gets a resounding meh from me. Wasn't bad, wasn't great, not a movie i'd rave about to my friends and tell them to go see but it wasn't a complete waste of a lazy Saturday afternoon.

Everyone who didn't get it, or even those that do, need to read the articles posted in the link.

I saw it tonight and it was ok, but I agree with the "meh" posted above, mostly due to all the hype.

I felt no emotional connection to any of the characters which was a result of underdevelopment. I didn't really care if the team succeeded or not. I barely believed Cobb wanted to return to his children so badly. That wasn't Leo's fault, it was Nolan's. I can see why time wasn't put into this because if character development was the focus, the story would be confusing.

Many of the action scenes were like a GI JOE cartoon (god, how long was that fortress scene?) and mostly nothing I haven't scene in a hundred other action flicks.

When the idea of an inception was first suggested, I was intrigued to see what they wanted to do with it....One corporation wanted to finish another corporation. Oh. Neat.

A good movie, but definitely not the masterpiece it seems to have been made out to be.

I loved Inception. About on par with the Matrix in my opinion. I'd rank The Matrix a bit higher because they did so much for a movie over ten years old, without the full advantages of CGI, and other digital effects.

I had a pretty big headache after my viewing last week. I sat there trying to think over every angle going on while watching the movie at the same time. The only thing that actually didn't work for me was the action scene filmed in Kananaskis. To me it felt more like something from a Bond film, or a typical action movie.

Top notch acting from top to bottom however. Loved Nolan bringing back fellow Batman cohorts in Murphy, Caine, and Watanbe. I had never actually scene a movie with Ellen Paige in it before this one. For some reason I felt she was all hype like the entire acting generation today. But overall, she did a great job surrounded by an all star cast.

I have been a huge Joseph Gordon Levitt fan since his days on Jeopardy, Ten Things I Hate About You, Brick, and The Lookout. Knew he would break out someday.

The crazy thing about Nolan is he has only made seven films of note (The Following, Memento, Insomnia, Batman Begins, The Prestige, TDK, and this one), and you could pretty much classify every single one as a classic within its genre. Inception is probably my favorite movie in the last couple years, but I am unsure if I favor it over most of his other films. He is just that damn good. Keep it rolling Chris. Hopefully he can help save Superman as well.

Just got back and it was amazing. Better than Matrix for sure because it didn't have Keanu in it.

Dicrapio is prob the best actor in hollywood today. Couldn't give it a 10 out of 10 though because of Ellen Page. Thank god I didn't watch Juno. I don't know how anyone can stand seeing her as the focal point for an entire movie.

great movie. in a time where special effects are given far higher priority than actual story/plot, nice to see a movie with an extremely creative idea, and an effective way of taking it to the audience without leaving them lost/confused.

wish more movies were half as good as this, but unfortunately, these days, movies seeem to get crappier and crappier (ones that make it to the big theaters i mean).

Saw it last night with my wife, we both really enjoyed it. I tried to avoid a lot of the hype surrounding this movie (short of watching the trailers) and came away very impressed.

I wouldn't mind watching it a couple more times to pickup some little details and nuances that I'm sure will give even more depth to the film.

[username]

Wow, who ever came up with the idea for this movie is a genius. I am still in shock at how good this movie was.

Tom Hanks owned the 90s. Not the 00s.
