Inception Reviews

Posted by barryb on August 12, 2010 at 13:09:03

Here are my favorite two Inception reviews. I hadn't read anything about it until I suffered through a viewing yesterday. This is a classic Hollywood case of "The Emperor's New Clothes". People are pretentiously going along with the idea that it's a great story because it's tricky to follow. I was shocked that Tin didn't buy into it (perhaps he could see clearly after a good night's rest?)

One of the big reasons why I didn't give a damn about most of the action was because I knew it didn't matter! If the characters drown or are shot dead, it didn't matter. This is a point that isn't elaborated upon in most reviews. The ending was a competent classic Hollywood manipulation, but it was too little and way too late. Oooo, spinning top -- ambiguous -- so what!?!
