Inception

[katikat]

Wow, I'm floored. Seriously. What an amazing movie!

I loved all the layers - a dream in a dream in a dream, every one of them running on its own time. The action was great, the CGI amazing!

Of all the characters, I liked Arthur best. He knew how to fight, he was so resourceful... Loved the way he got them all the necessary "kick" in the 2nd dream. And his fight in the hallway that rolling/tilting like crazy was fantastic!

I hope that the last part, the fact that Cobb remained stuck in the dream, was just a set-up for a possible sequel. That would be awesome!

Another movie I'll be buying on DVD for sure! This one's a keeper!

the fact that Cobb remained stuck in the dream

If you do some looking around, you'll find that there are a lot of theories on whether it was still a dream or not. Or maybe the whole thing was a dream, and we never saw reality at all. There are a few cool links in this post:

I'm with you about Arthur. I keep hoping that Joseph Gordon-Levitt will be cast (possibly as The Riddler) in the next Batman movie. He's captured my interest.

Thank you for the link. Honestly, at first, I thought that he had been stuck in a dream since Mombasa when Yusuf showed him his little "hospital" - he went under and popped out way too fast.

I don't think that JGL will be in the next Batman, he was in Batman Begins after all in a different role.

JGL was in Batman Begins? Who did he play? I don't see it in his list of roles at imdb.com:

Cillian Murphy, Ken Watanabe and Michael Caine were in both, though. Christopher Nolan likes to use a lot of the same actors. I have to say that I enjoyed all three of those guys in Inception.

Ah, sorry, mistook him for Cillian Murphy. I knew someone was in it :P

Lol, I've just watched the movie yesterday! And it was sooo awesome! I loved Arthur too, and esp the fighting scene in the hallway reminded me of Matrix, as well as the dream reality. Frankly though, I liked this much better, cause dreams inside dreams? And it was pretty scary, the chance of being lost in one's dreams for fifty or more years, but also cool that it could've been just minutes or hours in reality. The layers were fantastic, the acting was great, the CGI just wow! The city folding up on itself?

I'm not sure about the ending... that thingy sounded like it was slowing down when they cut the screen, but duh... sometimes it's best to leave people hanging, so everyone can have their own kind of ending lol. Okay, nto sure I made much of a sense lol, just wanted to share the love:-)

I also thought that it was starting to wobble at the end. Man, this has to be a set-up for a sequel!
