Inception- Nolan's best work?

Rating: 9/10 (4 July 2012)

Inception is a film starring Leonardo DiCaprio (Cobb) Joseph Gordon- Levitt (Arthur) and Ellen Page (Ariadne). Cobb, a skilled thief, isn't any ordinary thief. He steals secrets from people's mind. However this film isn't about stealing a secret, it's about planting an idea in a very powerful man's mind. Cobb's freedom depends on this last job. He starts seeing flashbacks throughout the film. Later you get to see what these flashbacks are and it turns out that he had a wife and children. His wife is played by the French actress Marion Cotillard. She was the first person Cobb did inception on. It didn't end well when she commits suicide because of this. It haunts him all the way through the film.
The time has come to play the game. Only planning on going through 3 dream states, they include a fourth. It's called Limbo. A dream state through where you could only be sleeping for an hour but down there it could feel like 60 years. The stunts preformed were amazing. Interviews show that Joseph Gordon-Levitt did all of his own stunts, while being tossed about in a spinning hotel room.
The film also includes the stars Tom Hardy known for 'this means war' and Cillian Murphy known for 'the dark knight. This film isn't what you'd expect Ellen Page to star in. she usually plays in comedy's such as 'Juno'.
Directed and written by Christopher Nolan. The estimated budget was $160,000,000 and the film made $825,532,764. The film was rated 8.8 on IMDb and came 14 in the 250 best films list. The movie was a huge success and not many people didn't enjoy it. I enjoyed this film and all the actors and actresses gave their best performances.
