    Plot: In a world where technology exists to enter the human mind through dream invasion, a single idea within one's mind can be the most dangerous weapon or the most valuable asset.

    This looks stunning. The plot seems so unique. Not to mention the cast is phenomenal; Leo DiCaprio (whom I love), Cillian Murhpy (whom I also love), Ellen Page (who is absolutely adorable), and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (whom I simply adore).

    Gaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh, I want to see it right now.

    I want to see this movie but Im gonna wait for the DVD to come out because it looks like one of those movies that I would want to see over and over again. I also think that they're gonna get into alot of trouble invading peoples dreams.

    Lmao, I'm going to see this with a friend, we have a habit of going on a date to the cinema whenever a new DiCaprio film comes out. xD

    The only thing I'm worried about is that the plot will become too complicated (as the trailer seems to suggest) and lots of people get bored of films like that. The visual effects look wonderful though. @_@

    I can't wait to see it. The action looks good, and the plot looks like it'll keep me thinking. I like movies that do that. I like 'em complex. I think the effects look good too. I'll definitely be seeing this when it comes out.

    I've just finished watching Shutter Island for like, the 10th time. So I'm definitely ready for a new movie with DiCaprio in it. I wanted to originally go see it on opening night, but Chevelle is going to be here in Jacksonville on the 16th. Haven't seen Chevelle since Planetfest 10, which was over 6months ago. I'm having withdrawals.

    I might check to see if my theatre is doing a midnight release thing though, because this movie looks like an even better plot than Shutter Island and maybe even The Departed. Usually only do it for Harry Potter or Twilight though :/

    Everything about this movie interests me. The effects, the plot, actors, and the whole idea of the movie. Although it's been said the movie may be "too smart" for audiences, but I could care less. I seriously can't wait to go see it.

    I've watched this movie yesterday at a premier and I've got to tell you guys, it is AWESOME.
    Only advice I'd give you is to keep concentrated, otherwise you'll lose the plot.
    Leonardo Di Caprio stars as a dream extractor who is asked by a major corporate company leader to enter into their rival company's heir's mind and plant an 'idea' into his mind through entering his innermost deepest part of his mind, one that will destroy that other company. With the help of an architect (to construct 'levels' of the dream worlds and place all details to the sense of perfection), a forger (who would turn into anyone in the dream world through copying their mannerisms etc), a fellow dream extractor, a guy who can keep 'em all sedated for 10 hours, and the corporate leader who wants to see his rival company's heir's mind fall to pieces.
    This whole plot was carefully constructed and beautifully portrayed. I have to say, this will not leave you guys disappointed.

    I am looking forward to watching it, not only because the the positive reviews this movie got but also to hang out with a few friends.
    But I am really worried about movie's ending to be honest. I don't know if they were able to end the movie in an interesting way.

    This film will quite literally make your brain numb after watching it. In a good way, of course. It is one of the best films i've seen in a long time! It's simply epic. Everything about it is amazing; the plot, characters, visual effects will leave everyone stunned. Like the scene in the hotel (the fight and all) was insane! It was full of twists and your mind runs wild with ideas of twists that may happen. Even the end has a huge twist which was very lulzy since the entire audience was like, "ARRRRGH!".

    I'll have to see it again so i can fully understand it, but not any time soon. My head hurts from trying to take it all in. xD

    It seems very interesting. Might go watch it. And well, it is about dreams so that is a plus on its own. Not to mention that the girl from Juno is in this.
    Did anyone else thought of that episode of Futurama that advertisements appears on your dreams? lol

    I absolutely adore the complexity of the film and how so much could happen whilst the van hurdled in slow motion towards the river and how they all managed to do so much in such a short space of time, still leaving time for them to delve into the other levels of the dream, watching so many plot-twists develop (e.g. The story around his deceased wife and what exactly happened to her... The ending itself... Etc.).. Tbh when I saw Leo Di Caprio lying there in the beach at the beginning of the film, I instantly thought that he was Jack Dawson and that he survived the Titanic. Seemed like I wasn't the only one though, when one individual started screaming ''OMG ITS JAACK!!''... Fun times indeed.

    This film is by far one of the best I've ever seen, and like Kitty, it may take a second watch to soak it all in, but i tell you... Its worth every second. Literally.

    I've just got to say this, your rather close minded if your complaining about a sci-fi film for having an alien with green blood where the protagonist wins :/

    Anywho, I've been wanting to see this film since it popped up in a lesson at college. I'm not a big fan of the lead actor but the idea of the film intrigues me greatly. The idea of entering dreams has always been something awesome to me.

    I just came back and I can say it was definitely a Christopher Nolan movie, COMPLICATED. Although it is good, as it will make me want to buy the DVD later on to understand it better.


    Oh yeah, this seriously fits.

    :/ You didn't read my p.m did you?

    The whole plot didn't seem 'original' to me for predators. I'm not close minded at all. I've only pointed out one thing since I'm on a mobile phone and can't blooming write a full essay on how some parts of the film wasn't exactly how I'd thought it'd be. I didn't feel like some of the characters developed well enough throughout the film. It'd be nice if you got to see some backstories or something to at least get to know them a little more. There were some nice plot twists in that film (e.g. The doctor guy
    being the bad guy
    ), and some kickass scenes, but in short it was not as good as how the trailer/reviews made it out to be. It was just predictable as to who would survive etc. That's just my opinion.

    Inception on the other hand, is indeed one film where you don't know what's going to happen next, who's going to survive etc. Plus the concept of delving into a dream is always an awesome idea, and everything about the film feels well thought out...

    Actually, a handful of professional reviewers had mixed feelings about Predators, so you're not alone.

    As for Inception, I've heard really good things about it so far. Hopefully I'll get the chance to watch it this weekend.

    Aye, the complexity and style is what made it awesome. Some of it is easy to understand but you need a second viewing to clarify your understandings.. The scene with the van was intense. You really couldn't tell if they were gonna make it in time or not.

    I said to my brother it was The Beach for kiddies. xD

    And it is. Absolutely worth it!

    I like a complex movie, I'm more likely to lose the plot in a simple movie because of boredom than to lose the plot in a complex one. It looks really good, though I don't know if it's out here. My friend drags me to see every movie, because she gets tickets for a dollar, so odds on favourite, I will see it.
