Inception Or Deception?

INCEPTION : The beginning of something, such as an undertaking; a commencement. That's what WIKIPEDIA told me. 


But Am I the only one who didn't get it?


For the record, I wanted to surrender to this dream; I didn’t want to be out in the cold, alone. But I truly have no idea why so many people are raving about this film. It’s as if someone went into their heads while they were sleeping and planted the idea that Inception is a visionary masterpiece! 


I think I get it. The movie is a metaphor for the power of delusional hype—a metaphor for itself.


Inception is full of brontosaurean effects, like the city that folds over on top of itself, zero-gravity scenes and more, but the tone is so solemn I felt out of line even cracking a smile. It lacks the nimbleness of Spielberg’s Minority Report or the Jungian-carnival bravado of Joseph Ruben’s Dreamscape or the eerily clean lines and stylized black-suited baddies of The Matrix—or, the film What Dreams May Come, for that matter, the off-kilter intensity of Nolan’s own Insomnia. The attackers in Inception are anonymous, the tone is flat and impersonal. Nolan is too literal-minded, too caught up in ticktock logistics, to make a great, untethered dream movie.

The visual effects is perfect and Leo and Marion too! but if not for them, I may just have to wait for the film to be released in DVD. I personally didn't like the film.

I LVoe, NOT!
