The criteria for a good movie have always been clear and unambiguous for me, which is what the old Hollywood folks say can move my top (brain) and middle (heart) and The bottom lane (everyone knows where it is) is a three-part movie. If all three parts are touched, I call it a divine work, and if it can touch two parts, I call it a superior work, and if it can only touch one part, that is, it can still be seen. Judging from this standard, "Inception" only touched one part of the upper road, and the upper road is actually the part with the least strength. Without the support of the lower two roads, the upper road is just a simple maze, watching movies and playing mazes. are two completely different things.
The success of Inception, in and of itself, is that it is a scientist film. In mainstream entertainment, it goes further in the world of science than most of its ilk. Like "The Matrix", it has made a circle at the high level of science and close to philosophy. This is the highest philosophical realm that ordinary scientists can achieve (people who go further up will join the teaching), Because of this, the resonance it resonates with people in the scientific world is often surprising. For people so keen to discuss the truth of the plot, a dear friend described it very well: "Every time a film like "Inception" comes out, it is a carnival of nerd and geek". This movie, that's all.
As far as the creative skills of mainstream entertainment films are concerned, this film is also difficult to be called a superior work. It and The Expendables that preceded it were essentially a movie: a group of people (mostly men) hooked up to do something illegal together. In fact, most of the previous paragraphs of the film have never constituted an obstacle to the audience's understanding. The director took the trouble to explain to us the principle of Pirate Dreams and the establishment of dreams within dreams. Until the big conspiracy of the dream in the dream began to appear, the film began to focus on playing the rhythm, and I have to say that as the highlight of the film, it has some slightly new pictures in the ranks of the blockbusters. , nothing else is successful, the rhythm of the shootout can't go up, and at the end, the world of several dreams will be combined at the same moment when it should be the most tense, but the people in the film are still in a hurry. , this is the hard injury caused by adding emotional lines later in the creation. And the last unstoppable spinning top is even more of a big flicker. The introduction of the concept of "the whole film is just a dream" will not have any positive impact on the story itself. This detail has become a simple joke. There is also a saying that the top seems to stop, which makes sense, but whether the plot of this movie is a dream, or not a dream, or some subconscious boundary, in fact, it is the same, and it has no effect on the story itself.
Don't try to find a place for it in the world of cinematic or sci-fi art, where this movie is nothing. Those who don't agree, please go and watch the review of this film written by a carpenter with obvious emotions. In fact, in the pre-promotion of the film, it was not Nolan himself who pushed it to the top. In Mtime.com's inefficient and in-depth interviews, Nolan clearly expressed his attitude towards this film. It is just a technically strong entertainment film. There is already, and his later work just adds an emotional line to it (again, it's just a hit-and-run movie).
It is the fans themselves who put "Inception" on the throne. The film received more acclaim before its release than the director's last mediocre film, The Dark Knight. The film was already in the minds of a large number of fans before it was released, and it was almost the only straw that saved the art of cinema in a mediocre 2010. I'm not going to blame the propagandists for the successful completion of their jobs. What I want to pay more attention to is that after more than 30 years of successful promotion of topic movies, movie fans have become a group of people who actively seek to be fooled. The gods were easily spoken out, and the enthusiasm spread like a flu, and everyone (including myself) could not extricate themselves. Lied, the phenomenon itself is a much better story than this one.
In the final analysis, naive movie fans always think that movies are sacred things. Unfortunately, in the movie world, "sacred" has long been just a promotional term shared by merchants and movie fans.
