    He´s right. Seriously, Inception is a must-see.

    And I just realised I still have that frakkin' spinning top from the movie as my avatar.

    I didn't enjoy it much.
    Confusing, noisy and ultimately just not very interesting (despite the intriguing concept)
    Pretty much lost interest half-way through (which didn't help appreciating the thoroughly chaotic second half).
    Looked good, but to me it was nothing more than just another (slightly more pretentious) Big Summer Blockbuster.

    Oh, I don't like the score either. wink

    Both film and score are fantastic and a contemporary genre classic! It's one of those films you MUST see, Timmer, even if there's something about it that doesn't automatically intrigue you.
    I am extremely serious.

    Why?
    What's so defining about it? Or so genre-bending?

    Well, I'm sure you know about the influence of the score.

    As for the film, perhaps it wasn't so revolutionary in and of itself. But the way it was told was brilliant -- complex and layered, yet easy enough so that mainstream audiences can follow. And some absolutely fantastic visual realizations of dreams that we've never seen before or since. It's simply speaking a boiling casserolle of original ideas.

    OK, thanks. smile
    The film really didn't work for me.
    Guess it's another 'to each their own' thing.

    From what Martijn said it pretty much sums up the views of film critics I read plus all the clips I saw didn't do much for me. I'll wait until it turns up on TV.

    Why anybody would be shocked that I hadn't seen it is silly. There are far too many films out there I haven't seen that I really want to see.

    Well, there are some cornerstones in film history that are must-watch if not only for one's cultural awareness and knowledge (INCEPTION being such a film). But hey -- several classics I haven't seen either. IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE, for example, which tends to make Americans shocked when I say it.

    Inception Hans Zimmer

    Favourite Zimmer score. Like all great scores, it's impossible to imagine the film with a better score.


    I love this score, easily in my top 5 Zimmer. I've not seen the film.


    So do I. May be it is the P.K. Dick connection or it's the electronica, I always associate this with Vangelis' BLADE RUNNER.

    Not at all. A) It's recent, B) it's popular, C) it's good, and 4) I assumed this would have been up your alley, especially since you've expressed on numerous occasions how much you like the score. Hence my shock.

    I've not seen IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE either. God knows how? It's been on UK TV periodically for years and I even recorded it once on to VHS video ( that's how long ago it was ) and still never watched it.
