So is Inception truly amazing and worthy of the #3 Best Movie of All Time spot it currently holds on iMDB, or is that just a result of the fanboys racking up the "10/10" votes?

I wouldn't say #3 all time worthy, but very, very good nonetheless.

I thought she was great in Inception. Also, I applaud Nolan for not making her character sexual, which too many movies do.

Probably just the fan boys racking up the points. I am sure The Dark Knight was probably that high when it first came out in 2008.

Well she does have very little sex appeal to begin with, imo.

I thought Ellen Page was hot in X-Men 3 when I didn't know who she was. That might just be the pedo in me though.

I like Ellen Page but I actually thought she wasn't that good in Inception.

Havent seen it yet, so I cant comment...but, when I first heard of the movie and the cast was being announced, hearing Page was in it was a downer. I just prayed she wasnt playing Leo's love interest, cause that would have been incredibly awkward.

What exactly wasn't good about what she did? Her part didn't require much, and she did what she had to do.

There was no emotion at all. It's possible Nolan wrote the character that way but she could have still played it better.

JGL didnt show that much emotion and everyone thought he was great.

His charatcer was supposed to be like that though. Ariadne had some heavy stuff to deal with and she still came across as unemotional.

Page wasn't bad or anything. Her character wasn't written particularly amazingly and her importance to the plot was minimal.
She did a fine job.
