Great Idea, Supremely Executed

Rating: 9/10 (1 May 2013)

This is a film which I heard about, loved the idea and somehow never got round to watching until the other day.
The Basic concept of being able to enter another's dreams and effect them is nothing particularly new, but the mechanisms and detail of this within the setting are well thought out, and the setting itself is top notch.
I don;t really want to say too much about the details of the film itself, it would ruin it for a new watcher
However I will comment on a few things,
The characterisation is generally very good, and the background detail for the lead character (Dicaprio) and the way this interweaves into the events of the storyline is top notch, both in the way it is thought out and in the way it is brought out throughout the film. This is all helped by the fact that the acting is brilliant in it, and the dialogue is great also.
the sets are works of art and the effects are monumental as is the sound track
Overall this film is one of the best I've seen in a long time.
