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.

If it's a lucid dream, yes. I used to be very good at lucid dreaming but I got lazy and let my skills slip, so mostly I just have dreams and don't realize they're dreams until I wake up. But on the occasion that I do become lucid in a dream, it's so much fun because then you really can do some of the things they did in the film, like building these crazy worlds and making things defy physics.

That sounds both really neat and interesting but also like cheating.
