Review: Inception

Inception, directed by Christopher Nolan, is probably one of the best movies of the year 2010! "Mind-Blowing" - one word to describe the film!

The movie is mainly about stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable.

Starring Leonardo DiCaprio as Cobb, he use his unique skills to his advantage - he can enter people's minds through their dreams and thereby learn their secrets.

Cobb is a thief for hire but Japanese businessman Mr. Saito (Ken Watanabe) has a proposition for him, a proposition that will dismiss his "wanted" status back in US.

He wants Cobb to enter the mind of Robert Fischer Jr., who is about to inherit his father's massive business empire, to plant a simple notion - to break-up his father's business.

Together with his team, Cobb went into Fischer Jr.'s dream and that's when all the awesomeness starts. Arthur (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) is always the one assisting Cobb during their "dream" quest.

He's the ladies' pick! Many ladies unanimously agree that Arthur is more attractive than Cobb.

Anyway, new in the team is architect student, Ariadne (Ellen Page). An architect is in-charge of building the dream. She looks really hot!

Alright, I won't bore you guys with another lengthy review because there are already so many other reviews done. It's basically a dream within another dream within another dream and the dream goes on. Quite confusing if you don't follow the storyline properly.

The interesting feature of this movie is that director Christopher Nolan took almost 10 years to perfect the plot. I'd definitely say it's a job well done!

A little more about Inception - the totem is quite an interesting object. Each of the team member uses a personal totem to determine whether they're in a dream or not. If it wobbles and drops after being spun, it means the person is in the reality world.

Overall, it's a great and awesome show! It could tire your brain if you try thinking about explanations for the movie.

Noobie Rating: 9/10 (Must must must watch!)
