Inception

Inception ticketstubThis review is going to be short for a couple reasons, first, I don't want to give anything away. Second, it doesn't take many words to say how great a movie this is.

It's clear a lot of thought went into perfecting and polishing this film. The pacing is great, the action is great, the concept is great. Also, great acting and plenty to keep you thinking long after you walk out of the theater. I loved the cast, including Ellen Page, though she did feel a little out of place... but I still dig her. If I had to write down a complaint, it's that I didn't feel the need to write pages about this movie as I did Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, though it did feel similar in many ways. That's not something I would hold against Inception, it's just that I really wanted to spend more time working over the meaning of the movie when there really isn't any meaning. It's just, a good puzzler.

4/5

@alibakes Haywire is a sparse little covert thriller featuring a smooth jazz score. I can't think of anything else to say about it.

@kumailn Funny, at first I thought you were referring to the now defunct game studio.

@dcorsetto For the record, I'm more grossed out by pooping. And war. War and pooping, mostly.

Twitter ran out of "who to follow" recommendations for me. I should probably turn the Internet off now.
