I feel that this movie is still inferior to The Dark Knight.

It is too complicated for its own good. Making such a complicated movie with with its complex dream world physics and rules just opens up more plot holes and questions. In the end it leaves viewers puzzling over its queer dreamworld logic rather than its dramatic scenes or philosophy

I'd agree, but only by a tiny margin.

This I don't agree. I think it's exactly as complicated as it should be. Viewers aren't puzzling over it; we're talking about it, working out the complexities of its physics and rules as well as its dramatic scenes and philosophies. This is very much part of its appeal. Few movies have that effect. Even fewer movies are intended to have that effect.

Why the feel of inferior?

Fair enough. I like TDK better because it brings into focus deep seated personal conflicts, morality, deranged or misguided believes. The are more to the subject of humanities.

But for Inception, everyone is taking about what they think is happening and presenting their case with supporting interpretations of the dream world logic. Don't these all belong in a Star Trek convention ?

** Runs for cover ***

What you mean is people are only talking about the plot itself, nothing deeper than that. And you would be quite right, though I don't think that's such a bad thing. I can't remember the last time a movie was so talked about so goddamn much. Perhaps The Matrix? I dunno, coz I was around 9 years old at that time.

Btw, I watched The Dark Knight yesterday. It's even better than I remembered... and probably Nolan's best. The interrogation scene surely has to go down as one of the best scenes in history.

I think Inception also works in this way.

First viewing is meant to raise questions in you.

2nd viewing and onwards is to answer those questions.

It would be hard to grasp everything (unless you've really concentrated the whole way in the movie to understand it) in 1 go, but either way, the winner of this whole thing would be Nolan and WB.

Because The Dark Knight was gripping from start to finish. Inception, I thought it felt a bit draggy towards the end - too many shootout scenes in the snow.

I posted an interpretation of the film from a karma point of view, that Cobb and Saito are actually bad guys and that they deserve what they got. Perhaps people aren't talking about this as much as the plot complexities, but it's there in the movie.

Ah...I got it. Btw, finally the review came in eh?

I'm due for a new one. hahaha.

Dude the action scenes just plain sucked!

Except the shifty-grav and zero-grav fight scenes. Those were good, especially the former, which will probably be as well remembered as bullet-time from The Matrix. It looked so unbelievably cool and fluid. But damn, it was short as hell, and after they actually 'drop' into one of the hotel rooms, Nolan's penchant for in-your-face editing and close-up shots of people punching each other surfaces, and it turned kinda sucky.

haha dun be like me >.<
gf complained me too focus...

anyways there are humanities involved which i think is well portrayed by cobb...
the issue about his past, him turning a new leaf, him changing cause of his kids and of course about his wife...
i somehow feel that in the final level/ limbo he was incepted to forgive himself (Mal getting shot at) through emotions just like how he incepted fisher...

Catharsis as Cobbs puts it. Both him and Fischer were going through similar process as they both seek to redeem themselves. Fischer had father-son issues. Cobb had love-guilt issues.
