Good concept, no character development

Rating: 6/10 (12 January 2011)

WAY OVERRATED! Makes you wonder if IMDb should re-think their ranking formula. I'd say Inception deserves a 6 or 7. But to be the #6 movie of all-time, you need character development. There was none. Zero, zip, nada. We're told that here's Leonardo, and here's an Asian guy who wants him to go into a dream, and that's it. Boom, now start the action. I will say that the concept was very good. It could have been a great movie if they would have left in some action, but cut out about 45 minutes of it and substituted character and dream-sequences/plot, rather than just wild chases/shoot-outs. During these parts I found myself very bored.
