My watch history
Inception
I think I would’ve enjoyed this more if I watched it closer to the release. There’s a lot of hype around it, and it didn’t really live up to what I was expecting.
The sci-fi elements work well, but it feels like a load of action has been jammed in unnecessarily. I’m also not a big fan of DiCaprio - his characters always feels a bit flat for me. Elliot Page did a lot of lifting to bring some personality to an otherwise fairly drab set of characters, but wasn’t really given enough room to work.
