Reverse that list except for noah at the bottom.
No way. Burstyn's performance in Requiem is simply one of the best things ever filmed.

It's pretty bad. Since I love DK, DKR is the most disappointing sequel since Matrix Reloaded. Maybe even more disappointing.

Inception had so many good ideas in the first half, then it turns into a poorly constructed action movie.

The first half isn't that good either. It takes a neat concept and bogs it down with mountains of bullshit and exposition.
