Anyone seen it?

i thought it was a good movie, everything i hoped a movie would have (though lacking in comedy for my taste.)

I didnt quite get the ending. The top was still spinning so does that mean that he is still dreaming or what?
 
where did you watch it? SM MoA? ATC, etc?

great movie. 2 1/2 hours flew by with so much going on.

the top spinning at the end left us hanging... it started to teeter a bit and then the credits came up so we dont really know if he came out of the dream or not (although I don't think he did)

No, just no. Try searching "Supersize me" on youtube.

@OP:
I found it to be an interesting movie. I think the top was a metophor for how the main character doesn't care anymore. Earlier in the movie he would spin the top and ONLY pay attention to that and take a deep sigh of relief. But that time he spun it and didn't even pay attention to how it played out.

Either that or he knew it wasn't a dream because he saw his kid's faces. Because if you noticed the top wasn't HIS totem, it was his wife's. And in all of his dreams he never saw his kids faces. So my guess is seeing his kid's faces are his totem.

Also there were about 5 layers of dreams at the end:

Rainy Streets > Hotel > Arctic > Limbo 1 (falling buildings) > Limbo 2 (beach + Chinese room + old Chinese guy)

The one thing I didn't get is why the sub-conscious would still attack the original dreamer (like the original dreamer for the arctic was Fischer, but he was still attacked).

OH, and did anyone notice that we never learned the main characters name? Maybe we did but I just can't remember.
 
@DeltaBurnt:
He didn't look at his kids faces when he was dreaming b/c he didn't want to forget about his real kids and get lost in the dream like his wife. I.E. seeing and being with his kids in the dream would dull his motivation to get back to his real kids.
 
Hot Damn!! I just went and saw the movie with my girlfriend!! The movie was pure genius. all that I expected from the writers of the Dark Knight and more!! Basically: "The Matrix on steroids" if you liked the matrix, you'll love this and if you didn't... this will blow you mind!! I have had my brain itching since I got back. OMG!!!!\\

I believe it was --- Kobb... or something. The whole movie just made you forget the minor stuff.

Yes, but could it not be both?

Plus my theory about him not caring about the outcome of top because he knew it was real could still be valid

I thought it was a good movie, but it wasn't as mind blowingly awesome for me. It was definitely a movie I would buy on bluray, though.
 
My girlfriend had a theory:
That at the end, the whole movie was a dream, and that he could have stopped it at anytime (if he faced her earlier), The top faltering on the table meant that he had finally found it within to forgive himself, and thus his wife's presence in his mind went away. This enabled himself to give up and find his own reality.

She made my brain itch just thinking about it.
 
2 1/2 hours and a headache later, I can say that this movie is absolutely brilliant, phenomenal, and incredibly imaginative; that's my opinion at least.

The ending did intrigue me though, but the top did start to wobble a bit so I would assume that he was in his own reality, but who the hell knows? Wait, I got it! OMFGCLIFFHANGER4TEHINCEPSHUN2LOL!!!!

But yeah, that's going to stick with me for quite some time. Damn that ending, no, the WHOLE MOVIE, was just spectacularly done though.

Yea, the ending really sealed it to being one of the best movies ever written in my opinion! Completely mind blowing, and unpredictable.
