A movie that didn't quite get up to the levels of great reviews

Rating: 6/10 (6 August 2010)

Inception is a decent action movie. It's well acted and produced. The weaknesses are on story and message side. Plot is pretty obvious. Overall Inception is mixing some 007 stuff we've seen in several other occasions and something matrix like with on-the-surface multileveled story. Worst of all, the message of the movie (which deals somehow with the love, reality and letting go of the sad past) is left vague and superficial. It simply did not touch me. To put it short, Inception seemed came through to me as a bagful of old tricks covered with some special effects.
Movie definitely is not worth the current 9.2 rating in IMDb. Being social media professional, the unreasonably high rating of an average movie leads me to wonder if social media has been commercially manipulated.
