Inception (Movie Review)
Movie Review
Inception
2010
Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page
Directed by: Christopher Nolan
Christopher Nolan’s Inception is a movie about paradoxes. The film itself is a paradox because for as much thought that was put into the narrative of the story, the film relies heavily on the audience to fill in major gaps of logic. Despite this, Inception is a great movie for fans of any genre. Calling it an action movie would be unfair to the film’s deeply thought out storylines and calling it a cerebral drama would be unjustly ignoring the film’s wonderfully shot and choreographed action scenes. Either way you look at it, it’s a mind-blowing film.
(500) Days of Summer (Movie Review)
Movie Review
(500) Days of Summer
2009
Starring: Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Zoeey Deschanel
Directed by: Marc Webb
Rarely do you come across a film where you can easily praise it for hours on end and still not say enough good things about. (500) Days of Summer directed by Marc Webb is one of those films. It would be better if you stopped reading this review right now and started watching the film. (500) Days of Summer is fantastic because every little part and detail is well done. The story is captivating and funny and the acting is excellent. The style how the film is presented is wonderfully done. The movie treats its audience well.
