a film that just makes you go wow

Rating: 10/10 (16 January 2015)

I have heard for years just how good this film and boy isn't that true, I think this may be one of my favourite ever films. This films premise sees a man capable of stealing ideas from peoples subconscious while there dreaming. A man makes him attempt to plant an idea into a person's subconscious via dreaming, this is called an inception. Now Leonardo DiCaprio is becoming one of my favourite actors around and he is great in this film. He is the character with the most back story and even though he is a flawed character with faults he feels relatable and you feel sorry for him because of his situation. This is one of the best casts of all time as well and the quality of the supporting cast proves it. Ellen page is an architect of the dreams they are incepting and she is well developed with her relationship with DiCaprio being the forefront of the film. Ken wantanabe is the business man that gets DiCaprio to do the inception and he fit the role really well and I can't imagine anybody else in the role. Joseph Gordon levitt is a great actor and this film is no different, his action scenes were breathtaking and had me on the edge of my seat throughout the film. Tom hardy was probably my favourite performance in the film his action scenes were great too but he was also suave and cool and his character was great. Marion Cottillard and cillian Murphy are great in the film but it's best you don't know too much about their characters going into the film. The story could have been ridiculously confusing but what I liked was that they explained everything really well for us the audience so we understood why they were doing things or what they were doing. Also the ending has been spoke about allot and all I am going to be is that it is up to your interpretation. The script is great with some well placed humour mixed with the dramatic moments in the film. Once again I loved all the dialogue that made the concept of the film easier to understand it just makes this film so much more enjoyable. The style is one of the best ever with every action scene really working and it being so hard hitting. Also Hans zimmer's theme was great with the score really encapsulating what the film was. Overall I love this film and it will probably go down as one of my all time favourites.
