Inception

So just saw Inception today starring none other than Leonardo DiCaprio.

Many words could describe this film confusion, excitment, wonder (which sort of corrisponds with confusion but whatever), and most likely wtf?

So the basic story is that science has found a way to go into people's dreams where certain people called extractors can steal information in their mind or train them to stop other extractors from stealing this information whatever it may be. After discovering Leonardo is a fugative (I will spare you the details why), he is hired by a buisness man (played by Ken Watanabe) and is offered a job that can clear Leonardo's name so he can see his children again. The job is to plant an idea into a rival buisness marketer's mind (which is called Inception) though the entire process is entirely difficult. So Leonardo is to compile a team which contains a Forger, which is a person who can impersonate anyone in a dream, an Architect, who designs the entire dream world, and his trusty partner who is another extractor who specializes in Kicks. A Kick is used in the real world that makes the person automatically wake up like falling out of a chair or being dumped into water. So from there they compose a plan and so on and so forth with no important spoilers to be explained.

Honestly this movie isn't big on the action, though in the middle and final scenes some of the action is pretty badass from fist fights in collapsing buildings to a shoot out in a snowy mountain.

Considering all these factors I do believe this movie is a definite theater watch, but it is very story intensive and you must pay attention or you will be lost. So if you want a fun action flick this isn't the right one for you. Enjoy!! And please don't post spoliers since once you know the ending it just ruins it.
