Inception

This is the film that I could not wait for it to be over.  For me it's a 90 minute film that goes on for about 150 minutes.   That's never a good thing.

For me, a lot of sizzle on the screen, but not really a lot of meat, nor compelling chararterizations, plus seeing Leonardo Dicaprio in this film, and earlier this year in "Shutter Island" playing characters with similar angsty tragic backstories didn't light my fire.

I didn't care who lived or died in this movie, it's that sort of film which is more interested in slo-mo and bombastic music scores, but it got so tedious and jarringly numb at times.

My audience let out a huge groan at the end.  Ugh.

Regardless of the cool visuals packed in this film, I won't revisit it anytime soon.

I give it 2.5 stars, or a grade of C+.
