Inception

Is that the twist at the end?

Not really shocked about that.

No, it's never explicitly stated. That's my interpretation (and really the only one that makes coherent sense).

The top faltering doesn't matter. The kids were exactly the same, in the same positions, wearing the same clothes, after presumably years of Cobb being on the run. Mal was the only other real person in the entire film; it took place in limbo.
 
It's a thoroughly entertaining movie.

What I hated, is that the ending was ambiguous for the fucking sake it of it. It's as if Nolan didn't have the balls to introduce a sense of closure to the movie, and left things open for a sequel.
 
I'm still trying to decide if I want to see it and if I do, do I want to see it in Imax or regular.

Decisions. Decisions. Decisions.
 
I didn't see it in Imax. I would have had to wait until 11:40 p.m. to see that and by that time I would have changed my mind again.

However, I did see it in regular cinema and it was very good. At times it was a bit confusing and it was hard for me to understand some of what the actors were saying. But, I got it. The ending was interesting too. I think a little differently about it than what has been reported here, but sort of along the same lines.
I think the "inception" - the idea planted - was an idea planted into Cobb's brain that Soto could solve Cobb's problems. And Cobb's problems were solved - as far as he knew.

I find the similar elements between this movie and Shatter Island interesting. I'm wondering if there is something going on in Leonardo's life that led him to those two roles.

I give it an A.
