...and I will see it again. AND buy the BlueRay and watch it again. There was nothing not to like about this movie. Never once did I even think about looking at my watch and saying "When will this groaner ever end?" I was riveted from the opening, and I was not a big Leonardo fan. (I am now!) I must say however that Joseph Gordon-Levitt amazingly stole the show, especially in the hotel. I always wondered who Ellen Page was from the CISCO commercials, (not having seen Juno or any of the other dozens of things she has appeared in since childhood apparently) but she was just fantastic. All of the acting was superb, as was the score and especially the editing, which must have been next to impossible. If this movie doesn't clean up at both the box office and the Acadamy Awards I will be shocked. This is what going to the movies is all about in every sense of the word. Thank you Chris Nolan, you have restored my faith in someone's ability to produce great films.
If you are the type of person that enjoys movies like Dumb and Dumber, Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure, or KickAss, you probably shouldn't waste your money seeing Inception. If, however, you can walk and chew gum at the same time, can add up the cost of your popcorn, candy and soda without using your fingers, and appreciate outstanding acting, an incredible story and special effects that make sense, then this is the movie for you. There is nothing not to like about Inception, and at this point it is difficult for me to believe that I will ever see a movie of this caliber again. Chris Nolan has set the standard on which great movies should be judged, as this is a total masterpiece. This dream IS real!
Unlike Titanic, Avatar starts off big and ends bigger, with very little time in between spent thinking this is boring. I often judge a movie by how many times I look at my watch during it, but not once did I want Avatar to end. It was a tear jerker, yet inspiring. Pandora was a wonderful place to visit, and we ALL want to live there! Congratulations Mr. Cameron, simply put - AWESOME!
