I really liked Inception, & think for a lot of the reasons you stated -- it's supposedly a summer blockbuster, but it's so unlike any blockbuster that's come out in years. Yeah, it's a heist movie (I actually love that genre), yeah there are holes, but seriously when aren't there holes in film designed to make money? Nothing's perfect. :-) I thought the fight scenes were great, I didn't find it confusing though a lot of people seem to (this may be my next dating test thing -- Did you see Inception? What did you think? If they say confusing, probably not meeting again....), I thought it was fun & interesting & amusing, & what do you go to certain caliber movies to see? :-) Last summer I really like Star Trek, which did require slightly more thought than some blockbusters (not much, but a little). And I think you're right about hoping that Hollywood start putting out smarter films -- yeah people now are starting to bash it, but when it first came out is was super popular, & you're right there's a reason for that. I would definitely be in favor of this trend continuing. :-)
