Connor Macgregor Reviews...Inception
I always knew this film would be special...and my god it is. Its in my opinion...Nolan`s best work.
Dom Cobb is a skilled thief, the absolute best in the dangerous art of extraction, stealing valuable secrets from deep within the subconscious during the dream state, when the mind is at its most vulnerable. Cobb's rare ability has made him a coveted player in this treacherous new world of corporate espionage, but it has also made him an international fugitive and cost him everything he has ever loved. Now Cobb is being offered a chance at redemption. One last job could give him his life back but only if he can accomplish the impossible-inception. Instead of the perfect heist, Cobb and his team of specialists have to pull off the reverse: their task is not to steal an idea but to plant one. If they succeed, it could be the perfect crime. But no amount of careful planning or expertise can prepare the team for the dangerous enemy that seems to predict their every move. An enemy that only Cobb could have seen coming.
This film is by far The Best Film Of The Year. Its an ideas film and its one that Nolan does so well in his films. Dreams are something in film that can be difficult to do and even more difficult to be done well. Here its done really well by Nolan`s amazing directing and the wonderful effects that are just awe inspiring. The story is just so original and very tricky to follow.
With all these dreams they enter and the demons of Cobb`s past, it makes the story interesting and wanting the audience member wanting more. I won`t spoil anything else but its entertaining and very thought provoking.
The acting is great. Leo Di Caprio pretty much steals the show because his the character is the one in which the story is most invested in. Its the demons of his past and the demons of his present that make him go through this journey of mystery and fear that will rid him of his demons. Ellen Page is incredible too. She is basically the audience. The person who is new to The Inception and slowly sucks herself into the wonders of the dream world. I do love her role in this as any of the viewer could put themselves in her shoes. Other performances that are great are Joseph Gordan Levett and Marion Cortlandt in roles i will not reveal until you see the film.
Overall Film of the year by a mile. Great acting, Story, Directing and Effects. See IT!
