Better than expected

I thought I was going for a Husband of the Year nomination by taking my wife to this movie. I expected to just be taking one for the team. However, I have to admit that the movie was very enjoyable and fun. Not sure I would invite the guys over to watch it instead of Monday Night Football but it was much better than expected.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Does not live up to the hype

Weak story. I think the "shared dream" concept was first done 20+ years ago with Nightmare on Elm Street. The added complexity doesn't make it original or better.
Good special effects. Leo did the best with the script he had.
I didn't ask for a refund from the theater but wouldn't recommend this one.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Good special effects, predictable story

I saw this movie in 3D IMAX. That experience salvaged what is otherwise a droll, predictable plot. Let's see.... military man sent on mission becomes one with indigenous people - Dances With Wolves. Leading man falls in love with leading woman under false pretenses and has to come clean - Alladin and hundreds of others. Climactic battle scene where sympathetic characters win - Star Wars, Armageddon, and many others. If you are not going for the special effects, check out something else instead.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
