I JUST saw the movie today and it was great! I loved that there was this simple concept Hollywood turned into such an entertaining movie. Usually movies are dumbed down to appeal to the masses but every once in a while a truly intellectually stimulating film slips through the fine tooth comb of the movie brass. Either that or no one can write a half decent script that is both believable enough to get into without realizing that you are in a movie theater every 2 minutes or they are too inconsistent to follow one plotline from beginning to end.
I digress, however this movie came to be I enjoyed it and would recommend it to people who have ever thought about dreams, wondered about the subconscious mind, or considered the possibility of confusing reality and other states of mind. This subject is a personally intriguing one which I have always been interested in exploring. Just think, we could be living in some alternate reality right now and be totally unaware of it. It's enough to make you crazy if you are not completely sure whether you are dreaming or not, which is what I feel like it would be like if you had mental illnesses which altered your mind to such a degree. In other words if I couldn't tell, or wasn't sure I would be a crazy person! Any creative medium be it msuic, speech, writings, artistic creations, or otherwise that invoke the kind of thought that I expereinced today should be celebrated and shared with anyone who has ever had these thoughts, who's interested in exploring our being and concerns themselves with trying to understand life as we know it.
