I liked the movie. It’s very beautiful and is both complicated and easy to follow at the same time (nice that they keep telling you exactly what’s happening). But here’s the thing: the entire reason all those people get involved in that dream-mind-influencing scheme is for a business deal? Wouldn’t it have been easier to make that happen with lawyers? It would certainly would’ve been less dangerous and probably even cheaper, given that messing with someone’s unconcious mind is illegal. They said so themselves.
And besides, Cillian Murphy’s character (thanks for casting Cillian Murphy!) didn’t seem to be all that keen on running his father’s company anyhow. If they went up to him and said, “Hey buddy, I bet if you dismantled your dad’s business empire, it would really tick him off,” that would be enough to do it.
Anyhow, at least everyone in it was very, very good-looking.
