^ well said
specially the last point...
i'm not an intellectual movie hater but I don't really like it when at the end of the movie, i'm left with a weird need for more of the movie.. its like i've been watching and understanding and all of a sudden, tata byebye, the rest I can figure out on my own.

it leaves the movie looking slightly half-baked to me...
meh either that or I just suck at providing insight šŸ˜†

^hahha ya I know....Inception didn't have that effect on me....I was intrigued and it could be coz I am such a dreamer šŸ˜† but I remember watching No Country for Old Men....and I was so into the movie....and so wanted to know what happens in the end and then they just left me there hanging in the end....and I was so pissed! šŸ˜† But I think there is more to these films than just that...I might appreciate it on a 2nd viewing but I am still so pissed from the first viewing I don't think I will watch it again! LOL!

@liverach: haha some films are hard to decipher as they require so much attention! it's like giving an exam šŸ˜† i have to read reviews and blogs to get some of these films which can be fun sometimes....it's like you are solving a puzzle....but when I am really tired I just want to watch 2012 and Independence Day or some cheesy Kjo movie šŸ˜†

nolan's strength lies more in th complexity of the screenplay. he throws so much at you that you kinda miss the obvious loopholesšŸ˜†

The definition of intellectual cinema is ambiguous. I like psychological thrillers. Some are well-made and some are just pretentious junk.

My favorite thriller is Pi.
