A lot of logic flaws, this insanely obvious speed issue between the parallel running dream layers and a quite uninspired diCaprio who actually just reprised his role of Shutter Island. A surprising twist was missing nearly completely, the final scene not only forseeable but nearly a little cheeky.<\/p>\n<p>But what was annoying me most are lines of lines of dialogue to explain certain issues. It&#8217;s never a good sign, when authors are not able to explain their ideas by the story but by their characters. Even worse when these spoken out rules then don&#8217;t hold up later in the movie. Maybe this is also a necessary marketing issue for an audience that tends to think less and wants to get everything pre-chewed, but I feel personaly offended if I&#8217;m not taken at least a little serious. Honestly, if Nolan wants to make an intelligent movie, then he should make an intelligent movie and demand the same intelligence from his audience. Even in mainstream, there have been better examples than this. And Nolan already proved, that he can do better than this.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, the movie is highly entertaining. But that&#8217;s it. It&#8217;s far away from being at least close to what <em>eXistenZ<\/em> already was able to deliver 12 years back in every aspect except the action. Even Matrix 1 had a more intelligent way of storytelling, if you asked me. From this perspective, besides the visual and the production, Inception had actually nothing new to add to the ideas of dream layers. Pity.<\/p>\n<p>Still nice, but not the best movie for me this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While the production value of Inception was undoubtable quite high, a lot of visual ideas pretty intense and interesting and&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[3034,4533],"class_list":["post-5585","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-film-kultur","tag-logic-flaws","tag-shutter-island"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5585"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5585"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5585\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5585"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5585"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gruen-wald.de\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5585"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
