Reality vs Dream....???? Ten years back, in the year 2000, everyone was talking about a movie called Memento. Critics gave it five stars and in spite of being relatively unknown in the popular cinema world everyone who mattered looked up and noticed. Much more than the movie which was remade in several languages a new director cum writer came on the fore front. Christopher Nolan.A decade has passed and he has given us a number of critically acclaimed movies which also bloomed at the box office, breathed life into the Batman franchise which was dead and buried after Batman and Robin.
Now he has come one up with another masterpiece, Inception. Without giving much away, Leonardo plays a thief who is quite adept at stealing secrets from the human mind.He has to come up with one final job to be able to return back home.And so onwards the action unfolds.Its so refreshing to see that Leo after becoming famous via that, ooohh soo cute role in Titanic has not lost his way as an actor.The process started from The Gangs of New York and he continues to excel.Ellen Page does a competent job with Ken Watanbe coming up with some great one- liners.Micheal Caine also gets the obligatory role as he does in every Nolan movie.
With Nolan at the helm, a incredible but plausible story, some great acting and an intriguing climax which will not let you even blink, Inception is brilliant movie making at its best.All the elements in the movie suit it to a T. Everything falls into place in the end....well almost...It questions your intelligence, it makes you think, well woven into the heist is the personal life angle which keeps on haunting Leo....a memory...an incident which tends to almost mess up his careful well drafted plans.
Like it or don't looks like Nolan has come up with another winner which is well on its way on becoming a cult movie.Go Watch it............
My rating.........10.5/10 Christopher.......Take a bow !!!!!
