Inception

[certainthings]

I watched Inception today. I don't get it.

I mean, it was a good movie ... I guess. And the actors did a good job and the effects/graphics were uh, cool?

But I don't get why people were and maybe still are so flaily over this movie.

Please tell me what I didn't get, what I failed to understand ... what I missed.

I agree with you SO MUCH. It's a cool idea, but not so original that it's OMG worthy. I found it all incredibly predictable, but even that can be enjoyable sometimes. However, basically the entire movie was really poorly integrated exposition. It's like, "Let's just spend the whole time telling you what happens...before it happens...as it happens...after it happens..." *yawn* And the only character that was remotely developed was Leo's. And he wasn't that interesting. The others...were paper thin. I was really disappointed by the movie as a whole. That having been said, I'm still glad it's done so well just because it's actually an original movie and not a remake/adaptation/etc.

That there is a good point.
