This is a fantastic movie! Saw it today and would like to see it again at an IMAX theatre.

My daughter and I were talking about this film at dinner tonight -- that maybe this would be one worth seeing in the theater. Glad to see your recommendation here, Dee. :) It looks like smashing fun in the trailers!

Thanks SCDee, I have wanted to see this movie and your comments here want to make me see if even more. :)

BTW, the last 2 Leonardo films that I have seen were both good, Blood Diamond and Shutter Island.

I did some reading about this film last night. It's getting GREAT reviews.

At IMDB, it has a rating of 9.4/10: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1375666/ , and is currently at #3 on their "Top 250 Movies" (preceded only by The Shawshank Redemption at #1 and The Godfather at #2): http://www.imdb.com/chart/top?tt1375666

At Rotten Tomatoes, it has an 85% positive rating on the 'tomatometer': http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/inception/ They say: "Smart, innovative, and thrilling, Inception is that rare summer blockbuster that succeeds viscerally as well as intellectually."

It looks like critics and audience are both raving about this film. If I go see a movie at the theater this summer, this will definitely be the one!

I think you'd really like it Joolz. I saw Blood Diamond but not Shutte Island. I liked Leonardo in The Aviator where he played Howard Hughes. One of the people in the Inception movie was the boy in Third Rock from the Sun. I kept thinking I knew him from somewhere, it took me a while to remember.

Go see this movie! It is awesome, and has kept me thinking for days. I've seen it twice, and I would love to discuss it here.

I haven't seen Blood Diamond, but did see Shutter Island and liked it.

Wow, well, it's hard to talk about this movie without giving spoilers, which is why all the reviews are so vague. I definitely don't want to ruin it, but I'll try.

First of all, if ten people sees it they can walk away with ten different interpretations of what actually happened. Even if it seems at first there may be only a couple possible alternatives, I assure you, once you think about the implications of what those conclusions are, it can become very complex real quick.

Secondly, you really need to see it more than once to even know what to look for. You'll know what I mean after you see it, but there are things you just can't get the first time you see it. I'll bet I could watch it ten times and still not catch everything.
