"You're waiting for a train. A train that will take you far away. You can't be sure where it will take you" - Inception Well it's a roller-coaster ride as far as I am concerned. So is said that your dreams can take you anywhere. But this dream of Christopher Nolan's takes you to a world which will not only deceive you and but also leaves you wondering whether "The dream is real".
The story starts with Cobb(DiCaprio), a thief who along with his partner Arthur(Joseph Gordon-Levitt) extracts information from people using a military(obviously) device. But he fails in extracting a little piece of information from one Saito(Ken Watanabe) for a rival company, because of his problems with projections of his wife Mal(Marion Cotillard). To try and save his life he's on the run but eventually caught by Saito. Saito offers him a job and redemption from a murder case of his wife. But this time instead of extracting he has to PLANT an idea into the victim. To clear his name and to get back with his family Cobb takes up the offer.
He assembles a team of pros for the job. They eventually get to a Robert Fischer, Jr(Cillian Murphy), CEO of the rival Corporation. After getting him to the dream world, nothing turns out as planned(Of course). It's a ride that will twist your minds and will pull yourself towards the theatre(or else a DVD) for another watch.
And kudos for the Cinematographer and Oscar nominee, Wally Pfister( who has been with Nolan from Memento) for giving different diverse location and beautifully edited by Lee Smith( also an Oscar nominee).
Being a Nolan fan I did expect how the movie will end and was certainly awarded with the looks on my friends' faces. More deluding than "The Prestige", more electrifying than "The Memento" and more captivating than "The Dark Knight", this movies is surely the masterpiece of Nolan. This movie certainly isn't "One for the Masses" IMDb Rating: 9.5/10 Verdict : One of the best classic movies of the decade(all time too).
