What exactly did it leave to be desired?

 

 

character development

tension

a true sense of mystery

a plot that isn't verbally cued every 5 minutes

basically everything that made following and memento awesome

 

 

i get it, this was a blockbuster and they had to present it in such a way that nickelback fans could grasp.

 

dolla dolla bill y'all.

I liked it...It was like The Matrix for atheists without the tiresome pseudo bondage aesthetic.
:thu:

 

Tell me about it. I'd never got around to seeing the matrix sequels and decided to download them on a sick day off this week, and dear god those films have not aged well. I honestly thought I was watching a parody, but I think even the film makers got sucked into that whole "what if the matrix were real" mindset that saw sales of leather trenches and clip-on shades soar in the late 90s

No, it wasn't the best film EVAR, but it's the best I've seen in a while. I thought it did a good job of being a retard-o-plex filling blockbuster without being and infuriatingly dumbed down Michael Bay {censored}fest.

 

That's the genius of it, IMO- it manages to be clever and original by the standards of Hollywood shabillion-dollar blockbusters- millions of people will watch a smart movie and it will make a {censored}ton of money, which might convince a few studio execs that letting Jerry Bruckheimer making movies for retards isn't the only way to keep up their profits. That's a good thing, right?

It was nice. I liked it. The people I saw it with were all freaking out about how awesome it apparently was. I was still way more interested in the Melodica I just bought.

 

But fun movie. Will watch again if I don't have to pay. Will not buy.

a smart movie

 

 

was it that? I must have missed the intellectually challenging bits. Pan's Labyrinth was smart.

 

Inception was just fun. It was kinda like Oceans 11 for brains instead of casinos, but Oceans 11 was a little less predicable, and had funnier dialogue.

Did the whole cinema groan with the final cut for you guys?


Everyone sort of went 'ooooohh' as if they wanted to see if it fell or not, it made me giggle that they all needed that as closure.

 

 

I think people cheered in ours. That was the best part of the movie.

Way to take a phrase out of context, language scholar.

 

Put it this way- if you divided every film ever made in to two piles- "dumb" and "smart", which pile would Inception be in? yes, Pan's Labyrinth was probably "smarter", but how much less money did it/will it make?
