INCEPTION: THE SUMMER BLOCKBUSTER THAT COULD

Is all that we see or seem, but a dream within a dream? -Poe

I'm not sure if it is a relief or a shame that this movie is part of the movies that I am skimming over just to get caught up. By far this was one of the most creative, innovative mesmerizing films of the year. At its core, it's a caper film on acid. A set of unspecified agents are charged with taking their skills taking ideas people's minds to planting them. And mind you, this is just the short explanation. There are so many themes, so many alternative meanings, so many explanations it would take a whole blog on its own just to further explore these questions. Technically it was a masterpiece and one of those films that I could just watch over and over and over, and still probably not be able to tell you what it was about. Christopher Nolan has made a true masterpiece and if any movie deserves to be seen is this one.
