Inception.....Is it that good? Really?????

Now Inception is a film I thought I would love. It ticks the boxes - I like DiCaprio, Ellen Page is amazing ( especially in Whip It ), Joseph Gordon- Levitt is one of my favourite young actors ( loved Brick and Mysterious Skin ) and you can't usually go wrong with a Christopher Nolan film ( I really liked the Batman films, Memento and The Prestige ). But, as stylish and polished as it is, and it looks amazing on Blu-ray, I lost interest after about an hour and there was another hour and a half to go!! After they'd gone into their 15th dream within a dream within a dream I drifted off. I neither knew or cared whose dream they were in. As for their 'dreamtown'..... who would wanna stay there???

I certainly wouldn't. Shame.

I'm probably in the minority here, but it would be great to here other peoples views on this film.

  3. Yeah, I loved it. Not my fave Nolan film but still great. It was a cut above most action-thrillers.

  4. I've only seen Inception once but I really enjoyed it. Although you do have a good point, once we're in the millionth dream and the white suited Bond baddies come along it's a bit tiring.
