Twist ending that most people don't pick up on

Rating: 8/10 (15 March 2013)

When I saw this movie, I was not expecting much. I was told that it was long and hard to keep up with.
This was by far NOT the case. This movie was sensational, jaw dropping, edge of your seat, arm rest gripping, and had one of the bets endings I've ever seen.
A lot of people don't realize the fact that the top is not his, but Mal, his wife's, totem. Therefore, the ending scene, when he spins the top isn't important, because it is not his totem.
If you notice, when Cobb is in a dream, he is wearing his wedding ring. And when he is in reality, he is not wearing the ring. At the end of the movie, he is not wearing the ring, leading you to believe that it is in fact reality.
On the other hand, many people believe his children's face to be the totem, which is also a completely plausible idea. It would explain why he looks away when Mal tried to make him look in the dream. Also, at the end when he finally looked to see his children's faces, it shows you that it is in fact reality.
This leads you to believe that the only explanation is that he does, in fact, end up in reality. It doesn't matter whether or not the ring or the child's faces are the totem, all that matters is that he ends up back home to finally see his kids.
All in all, this movie was a fantastic display of acting, action, and drama. The concept was unique and definitely interesting as it attracted and kept your attention the whole way through.
DiCaprio's outstanding and immensely astonishing acting was by far one of the best parts of this movie. Leading up the casts, he was sensational and worthy of praise.
And we can't forget Joseph Gordon Levitt who really made his character believable and certainly entertaining for the audience.
And last but not least, Ellen Paige, who could do no wrong in this movie, as she portrayed someone who really listened to what Cobb's had to say and was truly relatable.
