This is more like it. I do agree if you concentrate the film clearly explains the concept and how it works. Maybe I didn't see the kicks because I was focusing too much on waitin for them. Obviously would have been something subtle.This always cracks me up. It was a good movie, and it seems amazing when you primarily watch crap like saw 12 and American pie 32. It's only complicated if you spend most of your time talking or testing during the movie. Pay attention, and its pretty straightforward. All of the dream worlds look completely different, and just because you don't see the kick doesn't mean it didnt happen. The ending is significant only because people realize that they have made some really stupid mistakes and want to believe in some cosmic do over, and this movie is as close as anyone will ever get

So basically it's Lost, but not on an island.

lost was a limbo/purgatory/what could have been theme. Sounds like this flick follows that. At least from what i read in here.

Or to borrow from bee ryan..."cosmic do over".

Its more along the lines of ur sub-conscious thoughts and inner desires, emotions, fantasies... The sort of things you don't use in reality that stay bottled up. Like when ur stressed or worried, u often have a dream related to the last thing u think about. Inception taps in to that, plants a seed and let's u explore the effects of it in ur dream.

Vadan and CC are both right. Yes it's dreams but there is definitely a purgatory aspect. The entire film Leo is dealing with the fact he killed his wife and abandoned his kids. Everything is penance. What we get to see is his arrogance and selfish behavior and how much damage, or at least the effects, those characteristics have on the people around him. It's interesting to watch Christopher Nolan's films because they are very much commenting on a godless world and how people have to deal with their sins, crimes, mistakes, whatever you want to call them.

That movie put me to sleep. Not as great as everyone made it out to be.

And that's one of the reasons it is great. It tests your attention span by putting the thinking parts first and the action parts towards the end. You are forced to engage mentally and thus participate and absorb the message that is being told.That movie put me to sleep. Not as great as everyone made it out to be.
