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.

yea, for them at that moment its still "dream" (limbo was still their reality)
only after Cobb convinced Saito that he's in limbo that they killed each other (didn't being showed) and return to the plane

its hard to understand what happens because you dozed off and "barely awake" throughout the movie?

well its a sci-fi for god sake
dream feels real while they are in it, so no tricks is needed

apparently you can kill yourself in limbo and wake up as normal (limbo is a whole other level of dimension compare to the other layer)

Saito is dead before Cobb fell into limbo, so naturally he's older

the movie didn't actually mentioned it, probably he just realized it after some times (they were in limbo for 50 years, and he must have feel something weird since there's only 2 of them in that city the entire time)

somehow i really like to discuss about this movie

Well, it continues, until we get the BD next month.
