Best Picture Favorite "Inception"

The star studded action packed thriller “Inception” is incomparable to other Oscar favorites.

The story is about Dom Cobb (Leonardo Dicaprio) whose work consists of stealing people’s secrets in their dreams.


Cobb has a team that helps him in and out of dreams. His team is great and perfectly casted. It consists of Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Ellen Page, Dileep Rao and Tom Hardy.

Ken Watanabe plays Mr. Saito, who employs the team to perform the extremely difficult task called inception. It means to plant an idea in someone’s unconscious mind. The target is an wealthy businessman played by Cillian Murphy.

Christopher Nolan uses all the actors’ strengths to tell this complicated story. He also uses colors to show the differences between each dream sequence. For example, one would be gray, the other would yellow and the last would be white.

Rating: A, It’s really good and unique, but it is a little long and confusing.
