inception | 2010

For four years I had been trying to watch that film and finally I've done it. Inception presents a new way of sci-fi or fantastic cinema. It has an amazing and complex story behind that the spectator understands and nowadays the general public that goes to the cinema, the popular cinematic culture wants to be entertained for a while and not thinking how this awesome plot can be understood or not. Christopher Nolan did that with that film and this is the reason of it's success. 

Inception as the word says is based on the origins of everything, of us. Mr.Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) knows how to enter to the dreams and basically how to move in those dream, we could tell he is an expert on dreams more that he lives in reality. One day, he and his fellow colleague are offered the task of their life. They need to do an inception on somebody else's mind and if they succeed Cobb, that has been drawn away from his family for the most part of his life, will be free of charges - he was accused of a murder - and will be able to go home. 

This task includes six people that are going to have to go under three dreams in order to accomplish the task. This part is the most interesting one because of the six people two are the experts on dreaming (Cobb and his fellow, Arthur), one girl is an architect (to build the dreams - as if they were labyrinths), another is a forger and the last one is a merchant of sedatives. Together they are going to experience, with the audience, an awesome adventure that keeps you on the edge of your seat and that makes you feel as if you were on a maze .

So this is a great movie to watch and the more times you watch it the more things you discover. Is probably one of those films who is a bit long, two hours and fifteen minutes but that seems very short and Nolan, the director, plays with the time in the movie as well so something that seems to be very fast in the movie becomes very slow - [spoiler] that ban falling into the river - and it plays with the viewer. 

As for the cast, I think this film counted with amazing actors such as Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen Page, Michael Cane, Tom Hardy or Marion Cotillard among others that did a good job. The music by Hans Zimmer is quite amusing, it really puts you on the middle of the film as if you were one more character. I've talked about the screenplay before but I think this is a very good one, very smart and complex but at the same time simple. So I would recommend anybody to see that movie, there aren't "buts" or anything, really enjoyable for everybody which converts this movie to one of the best movies of the last years.
