K welcome to the new Matrix oh wait...no its the new version of Wizard of OZ..no its just confusion from hell..your alive no your dead no its a dream no you got shot but you didn't no we're skiing no we're running no......this movie takes two times for it all to sink in and don't even try to make sense of it while your watching it ...it'll just blow your mind tooooo much..yes this film is alot like others but it is actually pretty good the more u think about it after the fact..its one of those things your talk about around a camp fire or in the middle of a nerd meeting..i found the casting to be the most distracting thing about this film ..Leonardo Di Carp-io does his usual safe performance alot like his in the film noir Shutter Island the same role from departed the same ol..but then he's paired up with independent film icon Ellen Page (JUNO, WHIP IT) which i could forgive until my man Joseph Gordon-Levitt (3rd Rock From the Sun) yeah that kid shows up..i guess he's "up and coming film star"...what the hell?? and then you throw in has beens Tom Berenger(Sniper series and Platoon) and Lukas Haas(Mars Attacks and Witness)then a dash of film royalty Michael Caine ..i just couldn't get what caliber of acting they were shooting for... the film is written by the great Christopher Nolan who brought us the rebirth of the Batman franchise and Memento..all in all this film is pretty entertaining and worth the $20 to go see it ..it for sure gets those brain fluids churning ..not for kids under 15 cuz they just wont have the brain power to follow it..
