I have mixed feelings about this film. So. Many. Holes. The only way I can reconcile it to myself is see it as being like a dream. Not a dream itself, because that starts the whole whose dreaming debate, and makes me cranky. But like a dream, the storyline holds together as long as you don't think about it.

The biggest plot hole for me was at the end. If the target was trained to repel extraction attempts, he be familiar with the concept of other people in the dreams. Shouldn't he have recognized the other people in the compartment with him when he awoke? And realized what happened? Plus, every time they needed tofix a warp core breach accommodate a plot development, such as explaining why suddenly people are in *real* danger while in the dream, the was suddenly some sort of jarringly introduced twist.

Anyhow, these are the sort of things that make me thing it was dreamlike - logical in the dreamworld, but falling apart in the light of day - but not an actual dream.
