Inception

If you haven't seen it, go. One of the few movies recently that I actually enjoyed.

Definitely one of the better summer movies, especially considering others like Knight and Day... Keeps you on your toes too.

I wish Google Maps had an "Avoid Ghetto" routing option.

Inception???

So I take it it is good right from the beginning?

I haven't seen it yet, but definitely plan to.

DiCaprio generally gives good value for money, and I wouldn't bet against anything director Christopher Nolan does. Memento is still my absolute favourite film.

Agreed. Great flick good acting, cool story, and just well shot and nice to watch. Also extremely glad Nolan did not hop on the 3D bandwagon.

I'm not a big movie fan, but I'm hearing great things about it from everyone - I'll check it out :)

That bandwagon in nothing new. In the fifties, Alfred Hitchcock, much against his will, was forced to film in 3-D for one of his movies. Using fifties technology, it was a huge pain in the rear. Can't recall which movie it was.

Dial M for Murder. Wasn't shown in 3D much at the time though due to tech.

I heard the cameras were monsters, the size of a mini van or bigger.

They're not much smaller today! Well, maybe a Smart car.

3-D is cool, but I'd much rather just watch a well directed movie with a good plot.

The two aren't mutually exclusive; Avatar and recent Pixar films prove that.

The problem is when somebody mistakes 3D for an alternative to making a good movie and assumes the 3D alone is enough.

Clearly it's not.

Yeah - but the tech is SOOOO much better now.

They even have TV's with 3-d Tech now.

It's fun watching those old 3D movies in 2D. Lots of stuff poking or flying towards the camera for no apparent reason.

SEMI SPOILER-
Back on point, its amazing that decaprio did two back to back movies (shutter island and inception)with so much in common (what is real/what is in the mind). I won't detail that statement because it would give too much away.

I did like inception much much more though.

Inception was a GREAT movie. Can't wait for the blue-ray.

Leo is definately one of my favorite actors. He doesn't settle for just any role like other actors do.

It was also good to see Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the film. I really like his role and the way he played it. I thought the zero-g fight scene in the hallway was on point, especially the grappling.

Also, is it me, or was Arthur's fight scene wearing the 3-piece suit minus the jacket reminiscent of Morpheus' (wearing the same) fight scene in the Matrix?

I'll wait 2 weeks before I post more spoiler-ish questions and comments.
