Forget the movie, let's discuss the Imax

Inception is amazing in more ways that I could review here. If you haven't seen it, you should literally drop what you're doing right now and go fix that. It will blow your mind wide open.
That said, let me say that any improved way to view this film is a must. If you watch the disc, you want Blu-ray, not DVD. You want a big TV not a little one. You want the sort of sound system that annoys your neighbors.
Same is true for viewing this in the theatre (which you absolutely should, while you have the chance before October 6). If you can watch it in any improved format, even including what I call the "faux-Imax" that is found in many AMC 24-plexes, that's still better than a regular theatre. While the improved screen size in the faux-Imax honestly does not impress me that much, the improved sound is AMAZING! This is a movie that truly demands amazing sound.
Do yourself a favor and go see this again in the theatre while you can.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Bring your handkerchief!

IMAX was nice, but not worth +50% of the price. When I see this a second time (which I most certainly will!), I'll opt for the standard theatre and less expensive price. Very good adaptation of the book, unfortunately also including the slow parts when the book seemed to get bogged down. The actors handled their parts beautifully (as usual), including some of the most heart-wrenching scenes we've yet witnessed in this saga. There is so much story to tell, it's unfortunate that a few of my favorite parts of the book were not in the movie (Dudley's parting words to Harry, and Ron's gift of a sock later on). I also have to wonder if some portions of the story entirely make sense if one has only seen the movie and not read the book. Too bad the way the story goes, two of our favorite "characters" are absent from this one: McGonagall, and Hogwort's!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Thanks AMC for sponsoring the 25th Anniversary showing of this awesome 80s classic. I loved the trivia contest before the show, and that we each received a special poster. The crowd was enthusiastic and friendly, and it was great to see a packed auditorium! Please host more events like this one in the future. You can count me in for them!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
