I'm from Europe which means we see most movies a little later than my IMDb brothers and sisters from the States do, plus I'm in South America right now which means I didn't see it till yesterday. So it might be a little late to put in my 2 cents but when I looked it up here last night and saw it at #3 in the all time movie list I just had too. 'Cause in no way no how does this movie belong there. I'll keep it short cause a lot of people have already did long and thorough explanations on exactly why #3 is to much for this movie but than again what does a list with Toy Story at #12, Unforgiven at #104, Indiana Jones above that and Shawshank Redemption at #1 really mean........not much. However you cannot argue over taste so I'm not going too, and yes I did get it. What I like about Nolan is that he must think his audience is pretty smart, he gave us Momento (which in my book is way better than Inception with a way smaller budget) and even the Dark Knight has a kind of intelligence in it that you don't see that much in Hollywood. But I think this movie is asking to much of his audience simply cause certain things don't ad up. I amazed he got the studio bosses to climb aboard with him on this one. It's to much, or to little depending on how you look at it. Nolan is one of the best directors there is in Hollywood at this time but that doesn't mean he has to surpass himself every time, and he didn't with Inception. Hell, Kubrick made Eyes Wide sh*t, Eastwood dropped the ball on more than one occasion and so did a few others. I hope Nolan won't get to be this eccentric arty farty director that just makes what he makes and just expects everyone to dance along like Kubrick cause if he doesn't we're gonna see some great stuff to come. But Inception ain't one of 'm. I saw a review here about stupid people which although I would not use that word does have a good point. And I saw another review where someone put together a list of movies that dealt with the dream subject better (although this movie is still way better than the Cell) but let me just put in my view. Dreams move in another frame per second, therefor it is not possible to have whole conversations or rides in a car from A to B in a dream. Dreams are just fragments and that is why a movie about dreams don't work well in my book. All I can think about when I see movies that deal with dreams is: "I never dream like that". I could go on and on but I won't, I'll give it a 7 and it might just be an 8 if I see it again cause that is something you just have to do with this one, but it could also change into a 6. Nothing more nothing less. O and I like DiCaprio very much but I just cannot see him as a grieving widow and father, maybe Edward Norton would have been a better choice.
