Inception

That's the name of the new movie by Christopher Nolan (probably most known for The Dark Knight). It's got Leonardio DiCaprio and a recent favorite after 500 days of summer Joseph Gordon Levitt. The trailer doesn't give away too much but going off of his previous movies I'm pretty much looking forward to the movie.

Memento just blew my mind, The Prestige was a good, entertaining movie as well and I even liked the somber Insomnia a lot of people don't seem to like. We all know how I feel about his Batman franchise so I'll leave that one out. His brother writes great stories so it's safe to say they are pretty talented brothers.

Anyone else looking forward to it before he gets back to the next Batman film?

Liked those. (Y)

Just by that trailer I'm guessing Inception has a twist that will mind fuck viewers similar to Memento and The Prestige.

Whole heartedly agreed, I think Memento is one of the best mind fuck movies ever next to Kaiser Sose and Tyler Durden.

Saw it twice already. Well worth all the hype. Best movie of the year by far and one of my favorites ever. I definantly suggest that everyone check out this movie. I'm seeing it for a third time next weekend.

I'm at a lack of words for this movie. It's completely mind-blowing in every way. It messes with your brain a bit like Memento does, but it adds the epic tension thatThe Dark Knight has to it. A true masterpiece.

Wouldn't call it mind-blowing, but it was a good movie. Nolan hasn't made a bad one yet. What surprised me was how easy this was to follow.

enjoyable. but it didn't really impact me all that much. possibly because it was too drawn-out. I enjoyed the ideas though.

the obvious comparison is to the Matrix with the whole questioning of reality and whatnot. The Matrix blew me away, however, and this did not. I guess it comes down to the visuals and action sequences. This movie was somewhat lacking I guess.

This.

I really enjoyed it, the complexity which Nolan can translate so easily to the big screen is quite amazing. Moar Nolan, MOAR!

This was a kick ass movie! From the storyline all the way to the visual effects. The movie was almost three hours long but it didn't feel like that at all. The zero gravity was such an awesome scene. I was very impressive and Leonardo Decaprio is quickly becoming one of my favorite actors. He is getting to that stage where I'll almost see any movie he is in. I recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it yet.

So can we argue the ending now? I know this is a little bit common now, but I do think it deserves a good reasoning. So what's it gonna be, Real or Dream??? :lol: :wink:

just finished it after way too much hype.

Sure i had to suspend disbelief a bit and the ambiguous ending pissed me off but an over all quality flick. Nobody felt grossly out of place in the cast, it was easy to follow despite the multilevels of dreams etc. Well done Nolan. I dont think its usual par, but, Nolan below average is still leagues ahead of most other flicks.
