Wow, a hardcore detected

Somehow I feel that this movie is being "hoo-haed" just like Avatar
...but this is still a better movie

Anyway does anyone notice that at a part Eames face was exposed to Fisher and at earlier on in the 1st level of dream, Eames was sitting beside Fisher when he was kidnapped. Mistake?

And I thought Fisher's uncle was trying to kidnap Fisher but how come at last Fisher and his uncle was like ok d?
*
well Eames impersonate Fischer's uncle, so to Fischer, he will see him as his uncle, not Eames (got a scene where Eames was "training" in front of the mirror, and the image in the mirror showed Browning)

because dream is hard to recall, and he had been preoccupied by the idea of his father actually "loved" him

giving his difficulties to recall the kidnapping event (when Cobb asked him in the toilet), its normal for him to not recognize Eames

in level one (raining city), Eames impersonate Peter Browning, pretending to be kidnapped alongside Fischer, and feed Fischer's subconscious ideas to suspect Browning staged the kidnap

and

in level 2 (hotel), Fischer own projection of Browning will act like what he thought (he kidnapped Fischer on purpose)

first level is just some exposition (the imaginary safe code), and kidnapping, but made him suspicious since why the kidnappers want a goddamn will...

inception as a whole is just mediocre. People seem to think it's a great movie because the ending was so beatifully pulled off that it left audiences with a final good impression. Really, the ending is the only good thing the movie has. That, and maybe the Hanz Zimmer soundtrack.

honestly, the movie was incredibly boring, i was barely awake by the time the movie reached that scene in the raining city, and i dozed off a few times during the snow scenes.

and worst of all, the movie takes great pains as to make the mechanics of the dreams so overly complicated, and some of them don't even make sense. It doesn't help that the movie keeps overloading the audience with a bunch of new rules for the dreamworld every 5 minutes, making, making it hard for the audience to really process them all, let alone understand them. It's hard to make of what's happening most of the time, and i'm pretty sure 99% of the people who watched this movie couldn't either.

i give this movie 3/5.

Lol... too much for you? This one of those movies one viewing is just not enough. It is not a sensory overload like "Avatar", but more of a ingeniously woven story that goes out from traditional story-telling. Seriously can't wait for the BD!

The thing about Inception is that it swamps the viewer with so much information that the first viewing can be a little confusing, you're constantly thinking about what the characters said 10 seconds ago. It's only with a second or third viewing that you realize the movie is actually... crap. Yes, I've just watched it again, and it has some nice ideas and concepts, but the execution is just painfully mundane and WRONG. The constant yakking is boooring. Yak yak yak. Explain this explain that. All done verbally. Films are about images, especially one with so much potential as this. Nolan makes the mistake of TELLING instead of SHOWING. And when he does attempt to show, he's revealed as incompetent, as evidenced by the goddamn awful last 40 minutes of shit action. You only need to compare this with The Matrix, which explained its ideas with elegance and coolness. None of that here. You want to see images coexisting perfectly with dialogue? Watch a Tarantino movie.

The most pitiful thing is that it really had the potential to be an all-time great. But it's just a bad movie.

Matrix and Inception has adopted a unconventional and interesting concept.
But I feel that Matrix concentrate too much on action and CG and too little on the concept
Inception like what QuickFire said lacks the graphic presentation

of course it's too much for me, and it's probably too much for you too. lol inception is such an ingeniously woven story that you have to watch it 5 more times to even understand half of the things the movie mentions, only to find more things that don't make sense. Inception is one of those movies that makes you feel smart just by watching it like Minority Report and the Matrix.

you don't even have to talk about the dream mechanics. In the movie, both Ken Watanabe and Cillian Murphy are two powerful and very important leaders of huge conglomerates. It would be nearly impossible for a bunch of guys to even get close to any one of them, let alone hook up a bunch of dream gizmos, without security detail noticing. This was especially ridiculous when the group was invading Cillian Murphy, since Ken Watanabe was also along with them. Lol he's like his greatest industrial rival and threat to his family's empire, yet he fails to recognize Ken Watanabe on the plane? Lol logic.

Another silly thing is Inception tries to pass the bunch of dream jumpers of as good guys. Lol these guys are actually invading the mind of an innocent guy who, as far as the audience can tell, hasn't done anything wrong and is an all around nice guy. And for what? To stop terrorism? To cure cancer? To stop evil? No, they went in just so Ken Watanabe's empire can rise up and rule after Cillian destroys his dad's company. Not to mention that what the group really did was just feeding lies to Cillian's mind, and he'll destroy his company based on a lie. The dream jumpers try to usurp Cillian using underhanded tactics with the intention of pure personal gain such as wealth and power, and their the good guys? lol.

I will agree with your first paragraph. It really does feel like it's trying to force too much info down our throats. Although I suspect I get that feeling only because of how the information is conveyed, namely YAK YAKKITY YAK YAK YAK.

About the second point, true but it's a bit nitpicky for me, so I dont have issues with that. Certain things have to sacrificed to tell a story like this.

Third point will fly past most people. I realized it but didn't give it much thought because the movie completely sidesteps the issue. You are right, but the movie is bad not because of this.

lol, the movie never brands Cobb's team as "good guy", its the story of an extractor (then again, Michael Caine's character even branded Cobb as "thief") who wanna go home and would do anything to achieve it...

its you who think that protagonist "must" be the good guys who "save the world, do the right stuff"

but yeah, everyone has his/her own take on the movie, and i am not afraid to say, this movie is the best of 2010, so far
