Review of Inception (2010) by Russell G — 06 May 2014
Dreams are one of the most mysterious aspects of human existence. They can take us to impossible places or seem so real that we question if we were asleep at all. Inception is an excellent movie that builds a richly complex story from looking at dreams, the mind, and ideas in a truly creative and original way.
A great amount detail and craft go into the story, which make it the kind of movie you may need to see more than once to absorb it fully. The top-notch cast includes the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Marion Cotillard, Tom Hardy, Cillian Murphy, and Michael Caine.
Christopher Nolan is a great director, and he brings the discipline and vision that this movie needed to live up to the full potential of the story. The action and special effects throughout the movie are all excellent.
It also features dreamlike settings with vivid environments. More importantly, he tells the story with coherence. This movie has it all with a great story, cast, visual effects and skilled director. I love how it is always moving and changing, continuing to push the limits of our imaginations and develop the characters.
It is possibly the best sci-fi movie since the first Matrix.
