INCEPTION - MAGNUM

My Rating 2/10 – It only gets 2 because Tom Hardy is in it!

COME BACK MR PREDATOR, ALL IS FORGIVEN.

Geez what a load of bullshit that was and £11.50 for an IMAX ticket, Christopher Nolan still owes me my money back for watching his bore fest that was The Dark Knight, now he gives me this crap.

Yeah that’s right people Magnum here isn’t a sheep and won’t jump on the bandwagon for what is basically a slow, boring and complicated heist movie that makes as much sense as the heist in Oceans Twelve, at least in that film I know they were after some stupid egg, in this film I forgot half way through what they were actually after – that’s how entertaining this piece of shit really is.

I thought I was going to love this film, I thought it was going to have me glued to my seat and twist my brain as much as Nolan’s Memento did – did it balls, instead I was sitting there hoping to fall asleep and dream of a better film – preferably porn.

The first half of the film introduces the audience to the dream world, the main players and the whole concept behind the inception. A bit hard to grasp at first, but soon begins to make sense and sets up what could have been quite an intriguing film.

Leonardo DiCaprio’s character has to do one last job for this business man who promises him if he succeeds he will allow DiCaprio’s character back onto American soil so he can see his kids once again – why this business guy seems to be the world’s police is beyond me – oh that’s right he’s rich, rich people can do whatever the fuck they want!
Not so complicated so far yeah – but then the second half of the film is the actual heist where Leo and the gang have to enter the dreams of some guy to get some crap from his head where they travel from different dreams in a dream and all that bollocks...yawn. Some characters are driving vans, some are floating about corridors and some are just blasting the shit out of the place. The best bit of this overdrawn dream sequence is Tom Hardy showing us his C.O.D Modern Warfare skills on some dream bad guys.

In the end you’re left with the question that is so damn obvious that they were going to leave there for you to question – because it’s a film about DREAMS, but to be honest I didn’t care, I was just happy it was over; I’m more bothered to know whether Harrison Ford’s Character in Blade Runner was a replicant or not.

MAGNUMS VERDICT: If I was in a coma and dreaming this shit my family better turn that goddamn life support machine off!!!

PEACE

P.S HAPPY 21st Emil
