Let me first by saying Inception skin deep is a 10/10 and is beautiful. But deep within the shell of hype is a movie that is still good but lacking at the same time. To all the people Who ultimately love the movie I see reviews like,"Couldn't wait to see this" "Masterpiece?" "Insanely Intelligent" which just makes the movie reviewer seem very naive. To all the people who ultimately hate the movie, they always say things like "I hate Christopher Nolan" "This movie is a ***** waste of time" etc. Which then makes me believe that those people just have something against Christopher Nolan.

In my opinion I saw the movie as nothing but a Hollywood movie. It was mildly entertaining and the cast was just a big name with no giant steps in their acting skills. I saw no hard acting parts besides them being themselves trying to talk about "logical things".

The Reason this movie was mildly entertaining was due to the fact that the storyline wasn't as fresh as people say it was. The editing also seemed jumbled. Trying to cram multiple dreams in one instance in an unorthodox manner in a poorly executed way makes the movie just look even more pretentious.

I have seen too many movies that skew the whole concept of reality and dreams and quite frankly this one didn't make me think too hard. Did they have to use pretty CGI? Did they have to have giant gun battles? No.... Of course this movie could of been way better if it wasn't "Hollywoodized" and dumbed down to make everyone interested in the action and CGI. Don't forget the decreased amount of talking about things that really needed to be talked about in order to avoid plot holes. Instead they just kept explaining the concept in a repetitious measure and never explained things in depth. Like for instance, the machine the Architect created. ("Architect" Matrix again) I hate to compare, like most people, but I would have to say that matrix (the first) beats this. The matrix created a universe aside from a concept and also had a foundation to where something originated. In this movie they treated everything so calmly yet everything was so insignificant due to everything being a dream? (Sound confusing and irrational? Tell me about it) What you know and who you know is insignificant and the movie is a continuous Dream, in a Dream, in a Dream that was just piled together to make me think. Is this a Dream? That isn't very exciting to me. I am not over thinking. I am just not chasing a very uninteresting rabbit down a hole.

I have seen it once, it was fun, its in the past. It has a less than 20% chance of me buying it on DVD when it comes out and it will soon be forgotten by me. There are more movies out there that blow my mind with their concepts then this one did. It was just a fancy effect, semi action, simple concept movie.
