Mate, I'm not being funny but a girl in our admin department understood it perfectly and she's as dumb as mud.

Inception does a difficult thing. It is wholly original, cut from new cloth, and yet structured with action movie basics so it feels like it makes more sense than (quite possibly) it does.

Everything he (Nolan) does is forced and overthought, and Inception, far from being his ticket into hall-of-fame greatness, is a very expensive-looking, elephantine film whose myriad so-called complexities -- of both the emotional and intellectual sort -- add up to a kind of ADD tedium.

I'd like to tell you just how bad Inception really is, but since it is barely even remotely lucid, no sane description is possible

Like I said, and Sparafucil backs this up, the movie is more of an experience than a story.
Nolan (and his marketers) needed to make the decision to have this movie either be an expensive indie production ( in the vein of Memento and The Machinist) or a summer heist flick. Trying to make it a hybrid didn't work. Like I said, I enjoyed it, but I was expecting it to be an intro to a new realm of possibilities akin to what was introduced in the Matrix or Minority Report.

There really is nothing "to get."
