Sure this has extreme special effects just like any other blockbusters. However, none that one hasn't been seen before. Actually Matrix was the first film of it's kind that totally blew my senses! Inception I felt actually stole some of it's idea from Matrix but not as effective. Dream within a dream within a dream is nothing new. Central idea is brilliant however could've been executed with better actors. Mostly I'm getting weary of Leonardo DeCaprio's redundant character of this "tortured soul" acting with his wife..very reminiscent of the movie "Shutter Island". In fact the character is one and the same. Same mannerism, redundant accent he seem to have acquired from the movie "Aviator" is becoming very annoying for the subsequent movies he's played in so far. Mainly a very good music soundtrack would've really helped the movie but that was absent making the movie seem very long and slow to get to the point. The ending of the movie however definitely made me think and analyze. I would not recommend this movie to a friend but wait until it comes out on blu-ray or DVD.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

I have to admit, I do love action movies, however, this one was a little different. Robert Downey, Jr was so excellent playing this flawed and conflicted character, Iron man. He had no special powers except he was a genius. Special effects were spectacular but what I loved most was the depth of his character and how it evolves throughout the movie. Loved Jeff Bridges and Paltrow, however it was silly whe was wearing extremely high heels even when she was running from a villain. Overall this action hero was my favorite, because he was believable!! I can't wait to see this movie again!!!!!!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
