katewritesPart of the reason I can't get into Inception is that the premise is that the protagonist is a man who drove his wife crazy. On purpose.
I know that everyone's happy place is Arthur/Eames, but I will be 100% honest. In any other movie, Cobb would have been the villain.
This movie tried to turn him into a sad, sympathetic character, and instead whenever I think about it, I have to warp the movie into a feminist retelling where Mal is right and Cobb is asleep. Otherwise I just want to scream.
