Over-hyped Mass Hypnotic Nonsense

Rating: 2/10 (26 July 2010)

I read the reviews for this movie, asked my friends about it and decided to take a look. After about 45 minutes into it I found myself sorely disappointed with the acting, the story progression, and the development of the characters (no genuine or believable character development, other than the obvious and predictable growth of DiCaprio).
Watanabe, Page, and Gordon-Levitt demonstrated some of the poorest acting I've seen since Con Air. Watanabe was difficult to understand 90% of the time. Gordon-Levitt's attempt to portray a cool & steely partner was grossly unbelievable. Page came across aggravating and, in many ways, out of place.
The Bottom-line: I believe that the movie did a good job of hypnotizing everyone into thinking that the Matrix want-to-be story was deep or intriguing.
Please don't waste your time seeing this movie.
