Mind-bending to say the least

Rating: 10/10 (13 April 2020)

Wow. For some odd reason, I had managed to spend the last ten years without seeing this movie (I know, I know), but I finally watched it yesterday night, and I've got to say, oh my god.
At first, the amount of exposition and the confusing nature of the whole thing caught me off-guard, but when it got moving, boy did it get moving. By the end, I was left there, staring at my television screen, having no clue what just hit me. This is one of the most complex worlds that I have ever seen put on screen; it is mind-bending, and I believe that with multiple viewings I will pick up on more stuff that will make the movie even better than it already is.
The whole cast is undeniably fantastic in this action-packed thriller, and Christopher Nolan clearly knows how to get the best out of them, and how to craft an epic story. Another standout here is Hans Zimmer, whose score is, again, one for the ages.
Finally, I believe that the ending is often what makes or breaks a movie. I am a sucker for a good twist ending or a highly emotional ending, but my favorite ones are the endings that are ambiguous, the ones that let you decide what really happened, that make you want to rewatch the movie over and over again to find more clues and solve the mystery.
Inception delivers one of the all-time greats in that regard.
