  • Ugh, we get it already.

  • From the director of two good Batman movies comes a film that will obliterate your eardrums

  • with deafening horn noises.

  • When dream thief Dominic Cobb gets his toughest assignment yet,

  • he'll assemble a team of experts, including

  • this small boy who can suddenly learn to make complex dream mazes

  • after doodling, a chemist who is literally the worst driver

  • ever,

  • and a sidekick whose only job is to explain the plot.

  • "In a dream, you can cheat architecture into impossible shapes."

  • "Five minutes in the real world gives you an hour in the dream."

  • "In the dream state, your conscious defenses are lowered."

  • "You can't wake up from within the dream unless you die."

  • "Raw, infinite subconscious. Nothing is down there - except for whatever might have been left behind

  • by someone sharing the dream who's been trapped there before."

  • And yet, not even the characters in the movie can figure out what's

  • going on. "So what happens when we die?"

  • "What's a kick?" "If this is my dream why can't I control this?!"

  • "Wait, who's subconscious am I going into exactly?"

  • "I'm just trying to understand." "How could you understand?"

  • "You don't understand."

  • To get back his children, Cobb's team will have to fight anonymous dream soldiers who have no idea how to

  • hit anything with an automatic weapon, or duck.

  • A movie so complex, it requires intense concentration at every moment -

  • which is really difficult when this guy goes over important plot points in a heavy accent.

  • "My main competitor is an old man in poor health.

  • His son will soon inherit control of the corporation."

  • A supposedly original film that's actually just The Matrix,

  • but with creepier extras and unclear rules.

  • Witness Leonardo Dicaprio fight his way through any physical challenge,

  • but struggle to squeeze through an alley way.

  • Immerse yourself in the dreams of Christopher Nolan,

  • which apparently don't include sex, flying, or

  • any other things normal people dream of. A dream land where you can think of literally

  • any weapon, but for some reason only dream of small-to-medium

  • sized guns. Seriously, they couldn't dream up a tank or

  • something? Starring

  • Reonardo DiCaprio

  • Indian Seth Rogen

  • Fivehead

  • The cast of The Dark Knight Rises

  • George Takei

  • The son from Third Rock from the Sun

  • and a dreidel.

  • INCEPTION.

  • If Cobb couldn't enter the country, wouldn't Michael Cain just fly the kids out to him?

  • Ugh, whatever.

  • Thanks for a great year, Screen Junkies! Tell us what movie you want to see us cover

  • in 2013. Also leave us a comment below with something

  • you'd like to hear me say in my amazing voice.

Ugh, we get it already.
