As I said in my review, no, they didn't. They were perfectly competent. They were just a little too long-winded towards the end.

that something to argue about.

1st possibility
Could it be everything we watched happens in cobb dream?

2nd possibility
Or everything is real?
3rd possibility
Everything real & after he end up in limbo he create that dream him going home?

4th possibility
Everything real & someway he woken up from limbo into reality and everything is real

The detonation was to bring Cobb and Ariadne back from Fischer's limbo most probably. It didn't really matter since Ariadne and Fishcer killed themselves to get out of there. I'm actually beginning to feel sick thinking about the plot.

You see that's exactly what I thought too but Cobb said to Fischer to set the charges even after saying that their mission failed (Fischer died). It's only after that that Ariadne convinced them to go to limbo. Since they don't plan to go any deeper, why set the charges anyway? It's not a kick if you're already in the last level. I'm still puzzled with this scene hmm.gif

I think he suggested using explosives only after Ariadne convinced them to go into Fischer's limbo. But dont quote me on it.

Nope, just came back from watching it again and it was said before that. The movie actually gets better with second viewing, love it even more now.

yup, he clumsily tried to spin it but it dropped to the floor, and he didn't tried again cos Saito was there.....


i think the "visions" was just the remnant of the earlier dream that caused him to be panic

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.

the zero gravity scene was the best wire effect i have ever seen, even in matrix you can see some of the movement looks very much like they are hanging from wire but not in this case. they even design cloth and shoe lace that will look like it is in zero gravity

Quickfire is right. I'd hate to agree with him since agreeing with him meant that I was wrong on my initial judgment but the more you see it, the more you realize the action scenes were either too short or too long. First time I've had problems with action scenes from Nolan though. I still believe he has it in him as seen in TDK's car chase.

I think the action scenes in TDK and BB were even worse me feels. He never really let the scenes to develop by editing and switching scenes too frequently. I haven't have problems with the action scenes in Inception yet, but I don't think I will ever will since they're never gonna be integral to the film. With that basis, it does bother me with the 2 Batman's.

I actually find Mal to be very terrifying. Everytime she appears on screen, bad things happen. Her cold eyes and out of control behaviour. Imagine the butcher knife and broken glass, her yelling at Cobb to stay with her and grow old together, really send chill up my spine.

My fav part of Inception is actually Cobb - Mal relationship. How they in love, build their home in dream land, escape from it, unable to accept reality, suicide, and live alone with guilt.

Ya, Mal in Cobb's dream is twisted and scary, that's because Cobb's mind is sick and he need help. If Cobb get help from psychiatrist, I think Mal won't be appear so dangerous to everybody. Fischer is lucky as he finally get release from the anger with his father.

Do you know that in Cobb's dream, he always get killed by Mal (or screwed up by her), maybe because he want to repay his guilt towards wat he did on Mal.

For the action part, I think I prefer Matrix ... action scenes in Inception is kinda plain actually.

Sure? Hmm I seem to remember Eames saying something about arming explosives right after Cobb agreed with Araidne to go into the limbo. Shows you that Memento is right, memories can be damn unreliable. Especially my memory.

This I agree with. The zero gravity scenes, especially the fight, looked the most authentic I've seen.

Well the action in Batman Begins sucked as well. He improved in TDK, though most people still say the action there sucked. I dunno, but I liked the prison transfer sequence in TDK. Certain parts of it lacked a visual grasp but for the most part it was tense and chaotic... in a good way, I felt. It had three of the film's coolest moments too- Batpod emerging from the Tumbler wreckage, the semi truck doing the flip, and the batpod doing a different flip off the wall. The other fight scenes in TDK dont fare as good in my books, although I found them more watchable in repeat viewings.

Yea Eames did said that but i also remembered Cobb saying "set the charges" if my hearing didn't fail me right after they said it's over (before Ariadne's suggestion). I need someone to confirm this, I'm having doubts on this one now laugh.gif
