I viewed it last night at the local IMAX and found it to be an involving experience. Based on audience comments I overheard as we were exiting, most of them did too. It absolutely held my attention for the entire 2++hrs and this at the 10:40 PM showing, a time period when other distractions tend to diminish my attention span.

I'm curious why you describe Inception as miserable failure as a film. I found it thought provoking and entertaining in a visceral sort of way. Most Hollywood films and esp the latest batch of this summer's blockbusters probably can't make that claim!

Regardless, I'm planning on viewing it again over this next weekend if it's still playing at the IMAX.
