Supra Inception Movie Review

Rating: 10/10 (28 July 2010)

Inception by far was to me personally the most anticipated movie of the year. I even refused to see the movie with a sober-mind, waiting a week to acquire a good amount of psilocybin in preparation to watch this movie. Well to say the least Inception was all I anticipated it to be. A movie which is principally there with a purpose of philosophical and scientific questioning. The science-fiction setting was appropriate, the plot while paradoxical in some respects is still exceptionally done, the acting with the likes of Leonardo DiCaprio, Ken Watanabe and Cillian Murphy was superb. The score by Hans Zimmer was haunting. Overall the best movie of the year 2010. Inception is a contemporary science-fiction classic.
The Good The idea of invading dreams in order to steal secrets is a fresh idea, but the idea of placing thoughts, of actually shaping conscious thought is even fresher. This is what Dom Cobb (Leo DiCaprio) and his crack team of extractors are hired to do by a mysterious Japanese businessman who sets to convince a young heir of a multi-national energy conglomerate to divide his dying fathers empire, so the business man can assumingly gain more business. The Plot is assuredly good, as the extractor manipulates the subjects consciousness by creating dream worlds in which all the laws of physics could be manipulated. The graphics and visuals of the setting are what really made this film.However the hero of course has a mysterious emotional past centered by a deceased wife and family. Which really makes you appreciate the decidedly human conclusion of the film. There were also some decent action scenes. The musical score was amazing. The acting from all the actors was never lacking as well. The best quality of the film however is that it makes the audience think. This is what really made me love the movie. Any movie that makes you question reality is well worth it.
The Bad Nothing much. I thought the dream worlds could have been designed with a little more imagination. As imagination is truly boundless. But other than that I found the paradox of working for money to be interesting when nothing is really real anyways. Others might say that it borrows too much from The Matrix, but I find that excuse to be a shortcoming. The action scenes might have been a little rehashed and forced also.
The Ugly A beautiful film. I really found nothing ugly except the old man. LOL.
Overall a wonderful film. Christopher Nolan really outdid himself in this masterpiece. He is building a great reputation. I gained knowledge from this film, the one thing I do know is that I know nothing.
Supra Score- 9.7/10
