Labarynth of brilliance.

Rating: 9/10 (26 January 2011)

Writer/director Christopher Nolen seems mostly unappreciated; but INCEPTION will get your full attention...even if you don't really comprehend what you are witnessing. A visual adventure with plenty of action and special effects. Don Cobb(Leonardo DiCaprio)is an Extractor...an extraordinary trained dream thief. His talents don't come free or without danger. A powerful industrialist Saito(Ken Watanabe)hires Cobb to infiltrate the dreams of a dying rival corporate giant's heir Robert Fischer(Cillian Murphy) in order to steal the secrets and concepts of the major energy company. Cobb can't accomplish all of this alone; he assembles a cadre of specialists trained in spanning different levels of extracted dreams. Part of his team is played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page and Dileep Rao. Cobb's own secret is that he is tormented by the extracted specter of his deceased wife(Marion Cotillard). You will not want to let your eyes stray from the screen. Tremendous F/X and story binding score by Hans Zimmer. Also in the cast: Tom Hardy, Lukas Hass,Tom Berenger and Michael Caine.
