I'd say the film takes a vast amount of poetic license and brings to the foreground what makes similar blockbuster films seem a bit silly and unreal after consecutive viewings: the plot dissolves under the massive and blatant weight of contingency.
The team just happens to succeed, when given what we were watching, failure was probably assured by how many things that could've gone wrong in their attempt to plant the idea in Fisher. So there is an impression that the plot just works as a fancy vehicle for action.
But I think its probably the best movie I'll see this year (the most memorable at least).
What do you Couchians think?
