Inception


Inception is a science fiction film that was released in 2010. It was written and directed by Christopher Nolan, who has directed blockbusters such as Batman Begins and The Dark Knight. The film stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Tom Hardy, Michael Caine and Cillian Murphy.

The film is about a team lead by DiCaprio's character, Cobb, who go into a persons dreams to extract information for paying clients. In Inception, Cobb must lead his team to put an idea into someone's mind. This is not easy since "inception" is thought to be impossible. Cobb is wanted for murder and cannot return to the United States, where his kids are, unless he does this inception mission. If his team completed the mission he will be granted a new life in the United States with his family.

The film has a ton of special effects. Just watching for the special effects alone would be worth it but the movie has much more than just special effects. The plot is very unique and is a breath fresh air with recycled plots in Hollywood right now. The cast is very diverse and all are amazing in their roles. The plot maybe confusing to some people but a second viewing would still be entertaining if it is needed to understand the movie better. If you are looking for a smart film that is also visually stunning than Inception would be a great movie to watch.

  1. I watched the "Inception" but I still feel like it was over rated. I love Leonarddo DiCaprio but this movie was still boring.

  2. I loved this movie. It was something new and different and it didn't hurt it that Ken Watanabe and Cillian Murphy were in it (Leonardo who?). I liked that the ending was left ambiguous too.
