Because they're making the fraudulent claim that there is something to "get."

Inception is a very straightforward story that is easy even for the layperson to follow and understand. Frankly, it was a disappointingly unimaginative movie that had literally the entire realm of imagination to play in but instead chose to depict the innermost workings of the human psyche as a bare concrete bunker.

If you want something to "get" watch Holy Mountain or Brazil.

EA GAMES' MASTERPIECE 'MADDEN 2018 G.O.A.T. EDITION' IS A GLORIOUS TRIUMPH OF ART AND TECHNOLOGY. IT BRINGS GAMEDAY RIGHT TO THE PLAYER AND WHOEVER SAYS OTHERWISE CAN, YOU GUESSED IT...
SUCK THE SHIT STRAIGHT OUT OF MY OWN ASSHOLE.

BUY IT.

Do you have a version with audible dialogue? I think that movie would have been a lot easier to follow if they hadn't tried to record the actor's lines from inside a wardrobe full of fur coats.
