This exceeded my expectations... absolutely loved every minute. I was so completely engrosses the entire time and it is to Nolan's credit that he manages to pull every strand of the plot into one cohesive whole. The guy is a genius.

I think it
Whilst this film is head and shoulders over the usual pretty dire Hollywood offerings the hype is I believe a little "Emperors new clothes".
Casting is more miss than hit, very very lazy
Di Caprio is poor
Acted off the screen by Tom Hardy
Ellen Page could not be more wrong
Cillian Murphy completely out his depth
Pete Postlethwaite (who I usually enjoy) reprising his role from Brassed Off, what a waste
Sir Michael Caine doing his Dr. Frank Bryant from Educating Rita
Sound editing is very 2nd year media studies
Just because something is loud does not make it effective
I didn't know Di Caprio characters name until the titles it was Col Co or Com at times
Accents from Cotillard and Ken Watanabe were almost unintelligable
The James Bond villians lair and snow scenes were just a showreel from the Director applying for a Bond film (If you dont think of Roger Moore and a Union Jack parachute then you are a better man than me)
The ending which many people love is straight from Tales of the Unexpected circa 1979 unimaginative and lazy
Thier are some stand out moments
The Mirror doors scene, amazing
The zero gravity scene, jaw dropping
Tom Hardy,brilliant
Cafe scene, dynamite
Folding city, Original and well done
Overall
Good but not great 7.5/10
I felt it went really fast. There is so much stuff happening that I was never bored. I didn't look at the time on my phone once which is very good for me.
There is a technology that allows multiple people to experience the same dream. A team of people use this to try and plant/steal ideas from people. The trailer makes it look a bit cheesy but it's a very good film. Awesome soundtrack too.
Absolutely fantastic film. I can't really think of a single flaw, and the ending was brilliant. I don't think I've been quite so tense during a climax of a film for a very long time.
I finally seen this at the cinema today and it was alright. I think it was bigged up to be something mind boggling difficult to understand but it was a pretty simple plot... just a dream within a dream and so on...
I would see it again but I wouldn't buy it on DVD.
This could well be the best film of 2010. Nolan is on a real roll atm. We know from Memento and The Prestige how good he is at twisty, mind-f**king type films so hopefully this is more of that with more of a sci-fi lean. Anyone who isn't excited about this, even though we know very little about it, better start getting hyped right now because it's gonna be essential!
Is this it? End of discussion?
Looking forward to it, Nolan has not really put a foot wrong so far.
But all this secrecy worries me...a movie has to be pretty darn fantastic to live up to this sort of hype...and very few manage to live up to the publicity.
Apart from which, the plot of people entering other peoples minRAB/dreams is not exactly a new idea...
