A very good action flick wrapped in an interesting concept

Rating: 9/10 (31 March 2011)

Christopher Nolan one of the best directors working today has made an action masterpiece made more interesting being wrapped in a good science fiction scenario. The action is well paced and believable in the context of the world in which it happens which happens to be a dream world.
The story is about an interesting operative Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) who is not allowed back in America because he is accused of killing is wife Mal (Marion Cotillard) who keeps showing up in the dream sequences. To get back home to his children Cobb must implant an idea into Robert Fischer (Cillian Murphy) mind.
At heart this is an action movie no unlike one of Nolan's favorite bond flicks On Her Majesties Secret Service which also sported great skiing stunts and mountain snow fortress. The story has enough plot twist to keep the viewer on his toes, and the editing is superb in building tension.
A very exciting and intelligent film, Grade A-
