Inception



Inception (2010)
Currently #3 based on user ratings (IMDB)


Inception, the act of pushing a thought into the mind of another with the hopes that the subject will accept this as an original thought.


This is the premise of the new movie by Christopher Nolan.


I must say, in the beginning I found myself thinking that this was a knock-off of 2001's "Matrix".  I began to wonder when the Wachowski Brothers would burst through the screen to scream "flag on the play".  However, past the first ten minutes, you begin to realize that this movie is something VERY special.


I have watched countless films in my time, some good, some bad, but I was thoroughly impressed by this piece of modern film making.


The CGI all throughout the film doesn't even seem to be out of place.  Since the setting is a dreamworld the viewer can actually believe that the things that are  occurring are common place.  This movie wins where others have failed miserably, .... BELIEVABILITY!


I sat through the entire film and loved how it came full circle in the end.  I will not spoil this one by giving key plot elements away, but hear this my brethren...watch this movie in the theater...tell Joe in the barbershop to leave those bootlegs alone, and support this film.


This is one you surely do NOT want to miss.


Star Rating { 4.5 / 5 }

  1. Great post I think it got the point of review, without giving away a great movie that needs to be watched.
