Inception

Christopher Nolan’s Inception is a film about dreams, but nowhere close to giving you a nice sleep. This one shakes you awake with the possibility of what one can do with dreams. Sometime back I watched Leonardo in Shutter Island and was shaken by the story. I am shaken now too but differently. I loved the concept of Inception, dreamcatchers , who could enter your mind and plant an idea there so as to make it seem like your own and this could have repercussions of any kind. And as we move from the first level of dreams on to the next and the next, we actually start getting confused and the excess action does not help much. But in the end, it is exhilarating. The totem which is the key to reality keeps spinning and we wait with bated breath for it to fall so we know Cobb is in the real world, but the screen black out leaving us to wonder…
