Positively BRILLIANT!

Rating: 10/10 (9 September 2010)

Inception – Inception, Inception, INCEPTION! This moviethis movie. Several weeks after seeing it and I still cannot grasp just how brilliant this movie is! This is not a movie you can describe. This is not a movie you just go and see. The only word I can describe it is "brilliant"; the only way you can possibly understand what that means is if you see this movie. This is not just some blockbuster movie – you really have to think about what is going on. The plot was just ridiculous – whoever came up with this idea is a genius. Basically it's about a group of people trying to plant an idea into someone's head, but do so in a way so that they don't realize it was somebody else's idea. Again, genius. It's one of those movies that gets you talking about it when it's over, which to me is the indicator of a successful movie. To know how to act in something like this requires hardcore talent; luckily DiCaprio and Page both have that talent. The effects were not mind-blowing, but I heard that it was completely old-fashioned – no CGI – so in that case it was decent. Anyone who has seen this and is confused about the endingwell, I cannot give you my thoughts. I am under the impression that this movie has no set ending. The writers made it so that your imagination could fill in the gaps. We are so used to beginning, middle, and end that we don't have room for imagination. To me, that is what gets people talking. To me, that is what makes a good movie. Inception may get very close in winning the award for best movie of the year.
