Inception

Plot summary:

In a world where technology exists to invade a human's mind through invasions of someone's dreams, a highly skilled thief with rare talents called Dom Cobb (Leonardo Di Caprio) is given his final shot at redemption and getting his life back through attempting to do the impossible, which is Inception. In this last job, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off 'planting' an idea into someone's mind instead of stealing from it... If they are successful, then its the perfect crime. However no amount of careful planning and experience would prepare them for a dangerous enemy that could predict their every move. An enemy which only Cobb could see coming.

Don't forget, in this film:
Your mind is the scene of the Crime.

 

Wow. Predictable. I bet in the end they leave you guessing if the world the main character is in is a dream or reality.

 

Well the ending's a bit predictable I must admit (not in a blatantly obvious way though), however you've got to watch out for the rest of the film C: I'm not revealing any spoilers unless you want to know the plot twists etc.

 

I feel that inception was a great movie but if i do say so myself that i wished it was a little more complicated. I like it when a story becomes complex enough to confuse me because it offers a wonder and a sense of enlightenment as you figure it out. While Inception offers alot of twists and turns it didn't seem to have enough for me personally. Pertaining to the ending

Spoiler

I think what they are trying to show is that reality, as it denotes within the word itself, is relative. Dream world, Real World, Limbo, it doesn't matter because each and everyone are realities. The one you choose to percieve is your reality but everything else is considered a dream.

 

My primary complaint with Inception is that you need a flow-chart to follow where everyone is. It's fine right up until that fourth layer, at which point stuff starts getting really messy.

Hoping that helps.

I miraculously did manage to follow most of what was happening. The only thing I still don't get is how Eames could look like other people... (that was, I'm told, what was explained during my potty break, unfortunately).

 

I have to say I reallly enjoyed this film, I went to watch it with some friends who had already seen it twice before. I thoroughly enjoyed trying to work out what was going on and the ending was good

Spoiler

since you don't know if the spinning thing falls

I thought a lot of thought went into this film and its intricate nature kept you guessing and wandering. It opened my eyes to a new world of dreams and just fascinated me on so many levels. The day it comes out on DVD I am getting it and watching it A LOT! I'm not waiting until Chrsitmas.

Anyway, I thought it was really sad and the music was really powerful, it added a lot of effect. It made me question what was real and what wasn't, and made me look deeper into my own dreams.
