Inception
Christopher Nolan has raised his level of expectation of movie quality from Memento to defibulating back to life the Batman franchise. Can Inception live up to the quality of work before? Or is he over his head?
When taking on a project, especially a espionage sci fi maze, the "idea" isn't good enough. You need the right people to deliver it, and the sequences to work in exact sequence. Nolan, provided, and delivered with Inception.
With Leonardo DiCaprio and Joseph Gordon-Levitt playing business partners, of going into dreams of clients and stealing there information, it is an interesting plot. Not going to far into the plot, they get caught into business deal that went wrong. So even in the sufficication of the process, things can still go wrong.
With DiCaprio's character, his mind is haunted by his wife played by the beautiful Marion Cotillard, who makes his jobs a great deal to overcome. As the crew comes together for there big heist, it is like listening to a symphony. Infact, the whole movie was like watching a symphony. It was heavy, beautiful, and at the end, you walk away from the movie satisfied.
Gordon-Levitt in my opinion is now one of the most underrated actors. How he pulled off his character in this movie, was genious. He is an actor who is turning into one of Hollywood's finest. Ellen Page, who play the architect/theropist, in the movie, really did good about playing a different role then the smart aleck she plays in other movies.
Does this movie enter into leaque of the best of the best of sci-fi???? That is yet to be determined. Age of movies determines that, but for now, it is one of the best movies of the year so far, and yes Dr. Ess, I would vote for Nolan for President.
If you liked this film I recomend:
