How do I know this?
I'm currently incredibly jittery (as in talking fast, twitching, etc)....from a Frozen Mocha from Panera. One. Frozen. Drink. That barely has any coffee in it.
What?
This is apparently what happens when I'm running on three hours of sleep and have a frozen mocha over lunch.
Jitters. Like crazy. Enough that Hubby is teasing me about them. I feel like Twitch from South Park. Not quite as bad, of course, but close. Very close to it.
The reason for my lack of sleep and current state of jittery caffeine adrenaline sugar jolted state?
We Saw Inception Last Night.
(And yes, it deserved all capital letters!)
It was beautiful. One of the most mind-thrilling movies I've seen. It literally has so many twists and turns and wheels within wheels within wheels that you always feel like you're three steps behind trying to catch up. But unlike Dark Knight (which starts like a starting gun at a race and never stops momentum), this has you trying to catch up and race ahead with your mind trying to keep track of so many levels upon levels of things going on. My respect for the Nolan Brothers keeps going up with every movie I see, and this one is definitely no different. This is, by far, one of the best ones they've done, in my
It is incredibly unique in the way it does things, the cinimetography is such I haven't seen before, and the storyline/plot just keeps getting you surprised at every turn. The ending is spectacular in a way that you wouldn't expect anything else of them.
In all honestly, it reminds me a bit of Pan's Labyrinth. By the end of the movie you don't know what's real and what isn't, and you're left trying to figure it out.
Also the cast was phenomenal. I was incredibly impressed with Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Ellen Page's characters, especially. They held their own against the Big Names, so to speak. I'd almost say they stole the show. Almost.
Go See It. It will blow you away.
We saw it just in regular theaters. Once a certain friend gets back from Cambridge, I think us, him, and another friend will go see it in IMAX. Yep. I think so.
And that is all from me.
Though after watching that movie you won't ever think of dreams the same way again. And it's also odd to realize someone else thinks of dreams in a similar way as I do. Hrm.
Happy Weekend, Everyone! Stay cool! (It's currently almost 100 here, and I feel like I'm back where I was living during HS. Ugh. Though a pregnant friend of mine is currently braving 100+ in Palm Desert, so I shouldn't complain)
Ta!
