Inception Review (No Spoilers)

ShareThis

This weekend I saw what just may be my new favorite movie. However, I didn’t think I would enjoy this movie. No, not because I am a Christopher Nolan hater. The problem was when I got there, there was this annoying Indian fobby girl saving 9 seats. You can’t save 9 fucking seats, woman! Every time people came up to her, she said in her high pitch voice, “no I am saving nine”. I wanted to go Joel Stein on this bitch, but I decided to do something less controversial and just stab her with my AMC gift card. After the theater cheered for my heroic act, the movie began.

Inception is a movie about people who go into your dreams and extract information. However, the big job in the movie is actually the opposite. They are planting an idea inside someone’s head. However, it has to be the person coming up with it himself and you just plant the seed, in other words, Inception. Not to be confused with my up-coming porno called “Conception”. I’m not going to tell you any more about the movie Inception because I don’t want to spoil it for you. If you have not seen this movie yet, run to see it before someone spoils it for you.

This movie completely SUCKED! However, in my defense I saw this movie in opposite land where the hot snow falls up and my opinions are backwards. There are some movies you watch and you think “Damn I wish I thought of that”. When you watch this movie you think “Even if I did think of this, I could not have executed this movie to this degree in a million years”. This is a brilliantly well-done movie. The cinematography, the score, the story, and special effects were all excellently executed. The ending is ambiguous so if you hate those, “Vanilla Sky”, “Memento”, “Shutter Island”, type endings, you may not like this. Even if you are not a fan of the ending, the way the movie was made is really cool. However, there are people who don’t like complicated movies. Whether this movie is complicated or pretending to be more complicated than it really is, all depends on you. The movie is what the movie is. If you don’t like complex movies or you are too smart to find it complicated than there is something wrong with the way you watch movies, not the movie itself. Perhaps, you need to watch it a second time to enjoy it.

There are those who rather watch Twilight or Madea’s Family Reunion than watch a movie that makes them think. Well, I wish I can go inside their dreams and give them an inception of good taste in movies. Again, I don’t want to go into details because I don’t want to spoil the movie, but if you have not seen it you won’t know what half your friends are talking about and will feel left out and unloved. If you didn’t like this movie, you probably were unloved to begin with.

Only beef I have with this movie is that now everyone is going to become or claim to be a Christopher Nolan fan. Listen, I was a fan since Memento. That was way before “Batman Begins” and way before people even knew who he was. I have seen every one of his films. If I hear one more person tell me he’s their favorite director when all they have seen is Inception and the Batman films I am going to give them a kick, and not the kind from inception either.

Just like any director with a big fan base, he will have enemies. There will be Nolan haters out there. However, they will never amount to the number of haters for M. Night Shyamalan, so he should be good. There are many great directors who destroy their legacy by writing their own movies such as Michael Bay for Transformers 2, James Cameron for Avatar, and Spielberg and George Lucas for Indiana Jones 4. Let’s hope Nolan never does anything like that to us. When being a good director you have to know when to stop. This is why Nolan will never make a sequel to this movie just for the money. You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become a crappy director.


Here are some comments from my twitter followers

@nayan1875 @CurryBear Use this from Ram Gopal Verma “Inception is the kind of a film which can make any director in the world feel like an idiot”

@shibzani @CurryBear Please don’t give away the movie #Inception I’m excited to see it And once I do I plan on spoiling it for everyone who hasn’t :-P

@neelasd @CurryBear it was fantastic, I saw it at midnight. My mind is still pretty warped from it.

    I feel like people who have not seen it opening day are going to fall pray to the hype and be like it’s over rated. There are always those people who like to hate on a movie just because everyone loves it.

    haha speaking of M. Night before the movie started there was a trailer about people stuck on an elevator. Everyone seemed real interested. Than it said by M. Night and the whole theater just went awwwwwwww man. It was so hilarious.

    someone who is “fresh off the boat”, I think it was meant more as a description than as an insult tho.
