A work of art

Rating: 9/10 (29 January 2019)

The esteemed director,Christopher Nolan,has created an unforgettable work of cinematic art in the form of Inception.
The extraordinary creativity and complexity that Nolan has treasured this film with left an indelible,unwavering effect on me,and one I will not forget for a long time.
The ensemble cast is superb:Joseph Gordon-Levitt;Tom Hardy,Cillian Murphy,Marion Cotillard,Michael Caine,Ellen Page and most notably of all,Leonardo DiCaprio.Dicaprio manages to pull off the painful guilt and regret that his character (Cobb) endures with great effect,while gliding through dreams and reality with effortless,smooth ease. The cinematography achieved by Wally Pfister and Nolan is a visceral beauty;rotating rooms and cities folding on themselves are just some of the spectacles on show that leave the viewer awe-inspired.
As always,Hans Zimmer delivers a haunting yet beautifiul soundtrack in the film.
Perhaps greatest of all,is the phenomenal screenplay that Nolan has given to the world. There are very few films that have screenplays which can top a dream extractor tasked with the challenge of planting an idea of someone's mind,delving into several layers of dreams and exploring the subconscious. The sheer magnitude of Nolan's imagination and genius to produce Inception proves that he is undoubtedly one of the best working directors of the last 30 years.
Inception deservedly will cement its place as a masterpiece of cinema,and its vast power to push our minds to its boundaries and bend it in ways we as the viewer didn't know were possible,will stand out mightily from the many films of our world.
