Psychological Thriller!

Rating: 10/10 (12 June 2012)

I must be a sheltered simpleton according to the naysayers of this film because I loved it! They all keep pointing out how this and that are not possible....but sharing dreams is not possible, yet they all accepted that.
So of course, EVERYONE will have a different idea of how dream sharing should be..this is how THIS movie interpreted it. Make your own movie if you want it done exactly your way! Or better yet, go watch a dry documentary on dreaming...because that is what it would be if we didn't accept some "perceived" mistakes in someone else's MOVIE!
Here are some of the ways I accepted the "alleged" mistakes; Re: Not colourful or surreal enough; They didn't want to draw attention to themselves because they were being sneaky! And they used an architect to make sure all the details were correct and no funny business!
Re: If you GET KILLED in a dream you wake up, or you don't; When you are heavily sedated you won't wake up, you will go into another dream...if you forget you are in a dream, you will just keep living your life till someone gets you and reminds you, or "jolts" you from the outside. In the meantime, you may have already lived a full life and gone through all the stages of dying of old age. (If you die of old age in a sedated dream, then you might wake up?)but then you might think that reality is now the afterlife....hence scrambled eggs for brains!
Re: Cobb and Mal were young when they killed themselves but old when in limbo; Being old was a dream that Cobb had, unfortunately, not Mal.
Re: No sense of a goal; He wanted to see his children's faces! Apparently, Saito had the power to wipe his slate clean, which was probably the real reason Cobb went deeper to get him. And I personally just accepted the fact that Saito could do this...
Since we didn't actually see how Cobb and Saito ended, maybe he still was in a dream. This does not make the film pointless for me because I really enjoy analyzing and this film gave me a lot to think about!! Plus, he still reached his goal either way!
Also wanted to mention, I think your inner ear is responsible for your balance and free fall and zero gravity produce the same affect; you cannot lose your balance, so you can't experience a "jolt"...and maybe the deeper you go down, the less affect from the outside, hence why there was gravity in the third level.
I think it is really sad that someone might not watch this movie because of the bad reviews, and miss something really really neat!
