Inception movie review

The scene of the crime takes place in a dream. INCEPTION is a new movie from the famed director of THE DARK KNIGHT. Starring Leo Dicaprio with a very strong cast, Inception is one of those rare movies that wants you to think, and enjoy it at the same time.

Story 9- Since the trailers doesn't really tell what the story is about, most people will probably put it off right we they see it. DONT judge this movie by its cover. The story is pretty simple. Its half heist film, and the other half is centered on the main character Dom Cobb, who is trying to move on from the fact that his wife is dead. Dom is a character who you will learn to sympathize with. He's a cool guy. Though the plot if pretty simple, me like most people will have to agree that its very complexed and layered. With some thought, this movie delivers on the entertainment front. Nolan does a great job on providing all the details for you to get what's going on, while also leaving you a little confused on the minor things( don't worry, this movie is meant to be viewed a few times, there's lots of hidden info scattered throughout the movie that the he left on purpose, why you ask? watch the movie and you'll see). The cast is likeable, and when i say they're strong and support the movie very much, i mean it.

Sound 9- Once again the actors are very good. They make what already is a good story even better. All the characters are generally likeable. The sound effects, are awesome! Guns sound real; explosions sound epic! The music also helps get you immersed in the movie.

Presentation 10- The Cgi is great! It really gets you immersed into the whole "Dream state". The cinematography also make this movie a great experience! Everthing is beautifully shot, making the dreams have more of an effect on the audience. Also, the fact that Mr.Nolan leaves lots of easter eggs(hidden clues etc.)throughtout the movie, it encourages multiple viewings to get the whole story on the movie, AND receive your own personal interpretation( if you watched it, you know what i mean).

OVERALL- 9.5 A must watch for all you movie-goers looking for an intelligent thriller, where you can think AND enjoy a movie at the same time. Also fans of Nolan should watch it.
