Inception opinion
July 24, 2010
I haven’t written in this blog for quite some time now, but I just came back from watching Inception- so why not write about it?
I think the only reason why I was with the movie the entire time (and didn’t really get lost), is because after everyone telling me they’d need to see it a second time to fully understand it, I made sure to pay SUPER close attention!!
I love Leonardo di Caprio, Ellen Page was beautiful, and I think she’s highly talented. The role of “Mal” was properly cast- a striking, yet maniacal, look in that lady actress (when she wants herself to be), and one of the best roles I’ve ever seen Joseph Gordon-Levitt in. Cillian Murphy did a brilliant job, and his cheekbones were more defined than ever. (In a good way). He definitely looked the most handsome I have ever seen him.
The movie was the first of its kind, and for that reason I won’t do you the disfavor of going into much detail. BUT the special effects were so alluring, exciting, original.
While I don’t personally think this is Leonardo di Caprio’s best acting performance, will the Academy PLEASE, PLEASE stand up?! Honestly, he should have won his FIRST movie, “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape?” but such is his luck that he’s not as lucky as, hmm, say Gabourey Sidibe, star of “Precious.”
C’est la vie, and as my bosses say, “it is what it is.”
I just hope Leo knows that he’s better than half the “actors” who walk off that stage with a political prize, and that most people think so as well. They’re just doing the same thing that they did to Martin Scorsese, only in my opinion, di Caprio is being way more overlooked than his buddy director was.
