Inception (2010)
7/10
Good but not what it's cracked up to be
29 November 2010
My feelings about this movie is probably best illustrated by the Southpark episode 'Insheeption', just because a film is complex, doesn't mean it's good or cool.

Making a film more complex and multi-layered doesn't necessarily make it a deeper and more engaging film. In the case of Inception, it generally only makes it more complex, and not in a way that is to the film's merit.

The complixity gets in the way of the film's plot a lot, which is quite frankly, not that complicated.

I can only call the film, an overly complex, though decent film, that just insists too much upon itself. It's a decent film,and although graded equally on IMDb, it does not deserve to be amongst the likes of The Shawnshank Redemption and The Godfather.
