In response to "Nolan's movies are just very cold to me. -- nm" by Dano

this is by far my biggest problem with it

Posted by chuckles (aka chris) Jul 18 '10, 15:30

logic problems and cheap twists aside, i hated Leo's character, had no investment in the central conceit of him getting back to his children, and didn't really see any romance between him and Mal that would tell me they were much in love

Responses:

I had no emotional involvement with anyone in the movie so it was just a puzzle to me and even that wasn't that interesting to me. - Dano Jul 18, 15:34 19
- It's very, very talky, no doubt about that. -- nm - David Jul 18, 15:36 17
  - The Matrix had just as many rules to set up, but seemed to do it much more elegantly. -- nm - Dano Jul 18, 15:47 6
    - I've been calling Inception a trilogy of film in just one movie. -- nm - Qale Jul 18, 15:50
    - The Matrix is nowhere near as complex, though. -- nm - David Jul 18, 15:48 3
      - and that's a good thing -- nm - chuckles Jul 18, 15:49 2
        
        The Matrix is a better film but I think the world of Nolan for making a Primer/Memento project rather than Random Sequel 4. - David Jul 18, 15:53

    - *ding* -- nm - chuckles Jul 18, 15:48
  - Is that why you liked it? -- nm - Bacon Jul 18, 15:37 9
    - It always depends on what they're saying. -- nm - David Jul 18, 15:37 8
      - *has another question* -- nm - Ellen Page Jul 18, 15:41 7
        
        You're right, Spoiler Guy. Ellen Page is really great in the film. -- nm - David Jul 18, 15:42 6
        
        She needed her Hamburger phone. -- nm - Qale Jul 18, 15:44 1
        
        I tried to get Kim one of those for Christmas last year but the last one on Amazon sold right in front of me. -- nm - David Jul 18, 15:46
        
        she got Juno power! -- nm - chuckles Jul 18, 15:43 3
        
        Better than her performance in Juno, Spoiler Guy? I don't know about that but maybe. What's important here is that we agree that Inception is great. - David Jul 18, 15:45 2
        
        i didn't drop the Orioles for the Dodgers - chuckles Jul 18, 15:48 1
        
        Yes, Spoiler Guy, the Dodgers (i.e. your team) really choked today. -- nm - David Jul 18, 15:50
- re your IM: it was - chuckles Jul 18, 15:35
