All the previs in the world can't make bad scripts into good movies.

I enjoyed the early Avengers movies (the Ironmans and the 1st Thor & Capt), then the later ones are all bore-fests.

Why are they dumb? For me MCU movies have the tendency of the second 3 heroes are on screen together the action gets dumb.

Super busy VFX bores me to death, there's rarely any emotional payoff in those scenes. And all these previs does is to make a busy mess of action shots. Meh...

Awful compared to what though?

With the bad scripts that have been coming out of Hollywood for years, this was pretty good in comparison.

I never understood why some people had problems understanding Inception. Still I agree that it is a clever way of showing how simple the structure of the plot is.


I think you have different groups of people not understanding it or uinderstanding it for different reasoins and then they all got mixed to gether and people started saying ITS A COMPLICATED FILM , when realy its not a complex film .


the film does suffer from terrible dialog and completely mashed up editing ( arguably the editing is to convey the nature of the dreams) the film also brakes the a rule it makes up and draws attention to ( the been knocked and woken up from a jolt)

Personally i don't think its a "bad" film i just didn't enjoy it at all , The main character played by Leonardo decapreo was a total selfish prick and i think with all the stuff about him and his wife and kids you are ment to identify and ruite for him in some way , but i thought he was a tosser so had no stake in what happend to him or his retarded love.

I can see how his romance and the story of him and his wife ties into the dreem aspect and the stuff of maby he is still in a dreem and she was trying to save him but i just didn't care.

Not that this film is like the matrix , but when u have a film thats premise is more philosophical or abstract than your standard film then you need strong characters and strong doilog to keep it interesting.

also to me all the special effects scenes felt realy canned/contrived and totaly broke the emersoin of the film for me. where as again in matrix 1 i didn't feal like i was watching a demo real for a car advertising company. ( again im not saying this film was like or shud have been like matrix 1)

The film is one big waisted potential if u took the inception idea had better plot and matue philosophical doilog it would have been way better.

im onyl bitter because i normaly like this sort of film , waking life ( i think thats its name) matrix , Existanze , cube .

come to think of it its like vanilla sky where it could have been good but was ruined by plot elements and annoying characters and bad script.

What an amazing display of insensitivity! This is like something from a stupid movie. He interrupted her acceptance speech to say that somebody else's video was better? Wow. Just wow. Seriously, like something from a bad script.

Director Paul Verhoeven... he tried catching this movie's magic again with crappier actors and a bad script, and that movie was Starship Troopers.

Bad script but good directing and camera work!!!!!!!!!!

The mom does a 180 and faces the fridge at one point in the clip. Bad script supervisor or someone has edited in a couple extra stares. I smoked a joint with Wayne once. He's been a pretty successful producer since the mid nineties.

I dont know whats worse the "comic nerds" hating it or someone actually thinking it was good movie. Granted Cage wasnt the only problem here, it had a long list of problems including bad script, effects kinda sloppy in some spots, mediocre directing, and a plot that was just so so.
