This was my weekend movie last week...
Definitely yet another master-piece from Nolan (Memento and Dark Knight were mind boggling)..
The movie was a blend of concepts relating dream, imagination and subconscious mind. As per the movie inception is planting an idea in a person's (read as subject's) mind by going into his dreams. By planting an 'idea' very deep inside the subject's subconscious mind he fails to distinguish between reality and dream and starts believing that the 'idea' is true and acts accordingly. A kind of mind control or mind theft. Nolan chose dreams as a means to enter the subconcious mind and by architecting a dream of his own and making someone else too to join it, an intellect can influence him in the dream. And this is not just for one dream but for dream within dream and so on i.e., layers of dreams. This is the concept on which the movie sails wonderfully also deploying another key idea that 5 minutes in real world is almost equal to 1 hr in dream and for a dream inside it is over 10hrs and for the next layer something like 5 days or so. That means by going into deeper layers of dream one can buy more time!! And to wake up from a dream, one needs a kick in the dream. The whole idea is so fascinating that you get completely caught in it without knowing to yourself.
INCEPTION is a MUST WATCH
