Why you SHOULD or SHOULDN'T watch Inception

Rating: 10/10 (4 May 2013)

To begin, I am biased in my evaluation of the movie because I personally enjoyed the movie. So, my advice would be to be prepared to sit down for a few hours, put on your thinking cap, and sit back and enjoy the movie.
This movie does receive a lot of critical reactions because it does ask one to think and remember and process; therefore sometimes it can be over-thought. It is kind of like when one knows someone is quick witted, but they don't like them; they'll then try to disprove their clever statements as being dumb or irrelevant. I believe that that is what occurs with the reviews that claim Inception isn't relative or realistic. It is just a movie. If it connects the dots, entertains, and has good acting then it should be enjoyed.
Also, some people may fall victim to all of the hype surrounding to his movie. If it is not your cup of tea, then it just isn't. No one has to agree with the majority that this was an awesome movie. There is no need to get angry with the film just because others couldn't quit talking about how awesome it was and you didn't think so.
As for the relativity of the movie. It doesn't change the world in any way. It doesn't try to. It is just a thought that was explored through a movie. Also, one can find many alternatives to what the actors do throughout the movie, but that's like questioning why anyone does anything. What people do doesn't make sense day in and day out, so why do the characters in a movie always have to make perfect, logical, reasonable sense 100% of the time?
Obviously I am a bit biased but there are some suggestions as to why one may not like this movie. If you are going to question absolutely everything, you don't like long films, you don't like films that claim to be intellectual, you don't like films with stereotypical actors, you don't like films with lots of gun fire and explosions, or you don't like films that everyone else likes; then this is not the movie for you. You can still give it a shot, but don't get mad at the film if you don't like it. There is nothing wrong with the film, it's only as good as the person who is watching it thinks it is.
