beansideOh, god why is it Monday again?
Watched "Inception" last night. I know a lot of people who I love and respect think it's the best, most awesome movie in history.
With all due respect to your opinions...
OH MY GOD, THAT IS TWO HOURS I WILL NEVER GET BACK. Seriously. There were good ideas in it. However, they were hampered by the clunky writing, wooden acting, and the presentation that having mind raped his wife made him a tragic hero.
I will concede that Tom Hardy is adorable and snarky. I will concede that he and JGL would be a lovely couple. I will concede that Cillian Murphy is wonderful.
When the movie ended, I disliked it. Now, I LOATHE it.
Christopher Nolan is a very good visual director. Now, if he could get the gist of the actors, he might make a good movie. Batman was good because of visuals and Gary Oldman/Cillian Murphy/Lian Neeson. They're all good enough that they don't need direction. Christian Bale was so busy chewing gravel he was a non-entity, and Katie Homles was annoying. Second one was all Heath Ledger and Tiny Lister. The rest was boring and stilted.
I really hoped that he'd figured his shit out. But no.
Will I watch the next Batman, aka the White Washing of Bane? I don't know. I really don't.

Date: 2011-01-24 02:45 pm (UTC)That was my exact same reaction to watching the film, though I did almost throw a shoe at my brand new tv when the ending rolled around before I relaized what I was doing. That was 2 hours and 20 minutes I wanted back.
The special effects were good. The actors were pretty. The storyline sucked. And the ending can go screw itself. I think I yelled something like 'The Sopranos did that better'. *snort*
I know there are tons of people over the moon about this film, but I am not one of them.
