awesome movie, sucky ending

A trippy ride, and actually worth the ridiculous price of admission! I loved how the layers upon layers of reality kept my mind occupied, and I might even see it again to catch things I'm sure I missed. HOWEVER, I HATE that the final is-it-live-or-is-it-Memorex moment is left hanging open-ended to our interpretation or guesses. I'll write the ending to my OWN stories, but I expect the screenwriters to actually provide them in the theater, not to cop out with a "cool" ambiguous ending that just leaves the audience annoyed. The sighs of dismay in my theater when the credits started were massive. Way to snatch defeat from the arms of victory, guys...
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Loved the book, hated the movie. The acting is AWFUL (amateur community theater awful) and cringe-inducing at points. No sense of pacing, plotting, or suspense; I was actually looking forward to it being over... Very disappointing.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Not terribly entertaining or coherent, MAJOR stuff was left out or changed from the books, which WERE reasonably entertaining; I kept wondering how they'll do the sequels if they leave it all out. A movie about mythological characters would be wise not to avoid its OWN mythology! The main actors were charming, but I was bored through most of this movie.
No, I do not recommend this movie.
