Even better??

Rating: 8/10 (26 November 2010)

As I have just recently seen this film my review is to be seen in the light of immense hype and huge expectations. Nonetheless the film delivers - It is, without a doubt, a really good film. The first half of the film I liked very much as we're introduced to the "world" and we're being presented to a task, that at the time may seem very intangible - This makes sure constant tension, along with our focus, is kept. But.. 3/4 into the film, after the plan to win Fischer over on their site, is revealed, the film hits a static period. On each dream level they have to keep projections out of their way, avoid getting killed and set up for the next "kick". The many "jumps" between the different dream levels seem irrelevant to the story, and ruin an otherwise naturally free flowing movie where you are constantly being forced to think ahead. This is, however, the only weak point in the film cause as the 4th level (Limbo) is added the film takes you right back to the edge of your seat. - How this was also connected to the ending (open ended) really made the movie to me.
I don't think we should make this film more complex than it is - Actually, now that we get it, I'd would like to see it pushed to an even higher level of complexity. Instead of the many lines explaining and confirming the rules/laws of Inception, let the viewers guess even more. The plot and idea behind this movie is phenomenal but sharpen the edges a bit more and we'll have an even bigger masterpiece. Think of a sequel that, really, challenges your beliefs in; what is reality?!
