A Masterpiece which took ten years to be written and that's justified

Rating: 10/10 (21 July 2010)

When I entered the cinema hall, I had my expectations set high. I had already seen the rating on IMDb and though the movie was at #86 when I checked it (it now stands at #3), I was expecting some kind of an adrenaline rush drama. What I met instead was a mindset so complex that it left me stunned, amazed, shocked, terrified and thinking long after the movie was over. Christopher Nolan has created a masterpiece. I had even enjoyed the movie 2012 a lot, but what differs in Inception is that it explores a possibility that has not really been explored earlier in any genre of entertainment.
The movie explores the infinite possibilities in which a man's subconscious state can be explored, exploited and in fact manipulated. The consequences can be grim but what's even more fascinating is the fact that such an idea can actually be translated in to a movie and that the movie is believable. Leonardo Di Caprio's biggest hit since Titanic. His last movie Shutter Island was definitely a mind bender, but though Inception does not have any element of suspense - yet it manages to leave the audience stunned thanks to the lovely inception that was born in Christopher's mind 10 years back. The thought of manipulating dreams is presented in a manner that not just fascinates you but also terrifies you. A perfect balance between the good and the bad is presented in the movie.
A must see and a must see again :)
