            I seldom go to the theater anymore, so I'll have to wait until it comes to HBO, SHO, MAX, or STARZ. Cant even think about what movie you're talking about right now, remember the name but dont remember what its about

              I always watch movies on DVD. Let the public spent all their money watching them first and reviewing them for me for free.

                I didn't see it myself, but a friend of mine did and said 25% of the people walked out during the film.

                He said it was horrible also!

                    I've heard its amazing. Get a brain dude. In regards to Avatar, that movie did suck. It was very predictable, but it was more an experience (albeit an annoying one in 3D after awhile) than a movie.

                      Completely ridiculous premise, compounded by the fact that it's completely impossible to follow. What a joke.

                      I don't give a fukk about effects when the story is ridiculous. If you want me to buy into all this baloney, you have to explain to me why I should believe it... Don't just throw me into the middle of all this crap without any reason to buy any of it! And why would I care about any of the characters anyway if you didn't take even a second to develop any of them?

                      Wow, what a waste of 100 gazillion dollars or whatever they spend making this.

                      But of course people will probably eat it up, and then Hollywood will spend more gazillions making similarly ridiculous movies that are similarly impossible to follow.
                      the movie got great reviews http://www.rottentomatoes.com/

                        Don't drink the Kool-Aid. I usually do agree with the consensus of reviews, but in this case, I think they liked the effects and were giving it credit for being an "ambitious" and "complex" movie.

                        Let me just ask you this. Do the following things seem reasonable to you?

                        1) That someone could be an "architect" of your dream, like somehow design the city or landscape in YOUR dream? (and by the way they never once show how any of this happens, or how anything happens, you're just supposed to go with it) And then a bunch of people can somehow get into your dream and take taxis and shoot guns and have discussions, even though it's your fukking dream?

                        2) That there could be a dream within a dream within a dream? This makes ZERO sense.

                        3) That in your dream, lots of random shit can be going on with characters in other rooms and other places where you are NOT? It's YOUR fukking dream!

                        The whole thing is ridiculous and impossible to believe.

                        And believe it or not, that's only PART of the problem... it just gets worse from there.

                            Here is BET entertainments review critic agrees there are to many dreams like someone stated

                            Inception isn’t a bad film; it’s just incomprehensible due to a weighty script rather than because it’s too “deep.” The majority of the film takes place in dreams and as each scene goes by you’re in another dream and another dream and another dream — there are so many dreams within dreams, I thought I might’ve been dreaming. Films about dreams are always challenging, considering most dreams aren’t linear and the creators can go as far as they want, which is clearly what Chris Nolan did. There are subconscious killers, upside-down skylines, Daddy issues, freight trains, corporate drama, military-trained dream protectors and some excellent fighting scenes. Inception needs to be simplified.

                                I thought it was good, didn't seem that hard to follow. Could have been a little bit shorter imo. Would definitely recommend seeing it. There were points in the movie where I would of said 9+, others at an 8. You should be able to tell if you're going to like it.

                                  thank you for the reply...OK, I won't go to see the movie because of your opinion, sounds like the movie is idiotic. I look forward to see SALT.

                                            saw it yesterday and it was great! A little confusing at first but in the end a great movie. You did have to have a brain to follow it though.

                                                          Holy F*ck that was THE best movie I have seen in a while....hands down the movie of the year...



                                                          Also it is pretty straight forward in the "given" plotline - the more ambiguous and arty interpretation is there for you to figure out and ponder if you want but man - it is straight forward if you pay attention...


                                                          Better than Sixth Sense....and Matrix combined - better than Avatar - if this movie doesn't get nominated in every category it would be a shame....

I usually do agree with the consensus of reviews, but in this case, I think they liked the effects and were giving it credit for being an "ambitious" and "complex" movie. Let me just ask you this. Do the following things seem reasonable to you? 1) That someone could be an "architect" of your dream, like somehow design the city or landscape in YOUR dream? (and by the way they never once show how any of this happens, or how anything happens, you're just supposed to go with it) And then a bunch of people can somehow get into your dream and take taxis and shoot guns and have discussions, even though it's your fukking dream? 2) That there could be a dream within a dream within a dream? This makes ZERO sense. 3) That in your dream, lots of random shit can be going on with characters in other rooms and other places where you are NOT? It's YOUR fukking dream! The whole thing is ridiculous and impossible to believe. And believe it or not, that's only PART of the problem... it just gets worse from there.
                                                            Its a movie asshole. Have an imagination.

                                                                      The Matrix and Avatar were both good but overrated.
