Inception


The hottest thing this summer? hardly.
Empty fluff, albeit quite beautifully done, is still fluff. Forgettable in every way. No residue left once you're out of the theater.
The discussion about dreams and their construction is always an interesting subject, but this film reduced it to some slow mo tricks, however technically well manouvered, and pretty much left it there.
It was a good thing to do as a family on a summer night in the city, though, and afterwords we all shared some of our dreams and nightmares and since a discussion between parents and kids is always welcomed, I can't dismiss it altogether.
It is good entertainment, as movies should be. But don't expect a revelation.

I totally agree. Left the cinema after 30 minutes, should have done it even earlier. What a load of bollocks!
