I just watched [movie x here]
zmeiat_joro:
Just watched Inception, and I am confused as to why it is considered a good film. The plot seems to be this: Joseph Gordon-Levitt and evil Japanese guy (I know the actor, but I can't remember his name) mentally torture some guy whose dad has just died, with the assistance of the protagonist, whose (dead?) wife is Marion Cotillard, who holds a knife and an avocado, a sure way to indicate she'll die. Protagonist has a sidekick, an actress whose name (I think) I know but can't remember. There's a lot of driving and shooting, for some reason. I liked Joseph Gordon-Levitt's dream scenes in the way it realistically portrayed the way your vestibular system affects your dreams.
And Michael Cane is in it (not a good sign), but (predictably) does not play any meaningful role, except to introduce sidekick to protagonist.
EDIT: Ken Watanabe, I think? And seriously, cutting avocados is the simplest thing. I was amazed when I heard of "avocado cuts". The actor that portrayed the guy they were torturing also seems familiar.
EDIT2: moving this here, sorry, missed it.
EDIT3: I initially posted this in a separate thread before I noticed this one.
Is it cold in here?:
I liked it for being intricate and conceptual.

"I liked Joseph Gordon-Levitt's dream scenes in the way it realistically portrayed the way your vestibular system affects your dreams." -- that was not sarcastic.
EDIT: It's probably the only thing I liked about the film. EDIT2: That, and old Ken Watanabe in the epilogue.

Not to mention inceptual

Saw the Adam Project yesterday on Netflix, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Is it a masterpiece and/or have groundbreaking concepts? Certainly not.
But the actors (Reynolds, Ruffalo, Keener, Garner, Saldana, and Walker Scobell as a new and promising child-actor) are likeable and do a fine job. The movie is zippy without much in the way of filler scenes, and they don't feel the need to overdo it in terms of exposition. It's 1h45m and that's enough.
Great popcorn film!
