It has been ages since I went to a movie house. But the rave reviews on the movie Inception has made me see the film. For me, my point is that it would be a waste of money and time to go cinema houses. I usually download movies online for free. In this way, I will not be able to waste money just in case I did not like the movie. Ha!
The beauty and complexity of Inception makes it impossible for me to have a detailed or complete synopsis of the movie. While there are summaries available out there, it is not the same as really watching the movie. This is especially true when it comes to the ending of Inception. One of the reasons for the rave review of the movie is the highly debated ending of the movie.
Just to give you an overview, the movie revolves around the character of Leonardo DiCaprio (aka Dom Cobb) who is a futuristic thief specializing in stealing ideas on the minds of people through their dreams. But then, the movie becomes complicated because there is this dream within a dream and still within that dream. (Watch the trailer here).
After watching the show, there’s one thing that came into my mind – Inception reminds me of my favorite TV show, Lost. The subject matter about the subconscious, the limbo and the mind-fuck brings back my memories of Lost. I did not expect this in the Inception movie. All I really wanted is to see what the “intellectuals” are buzzing about.
This belief about the connection of “Inception” and “Lost” has been reaffirmed when Lindelof tweeted about the ending of the Inception movie telling that “there is a THIRD possibility – it neither stopped…nor kept spinning.” The story stopped before either could happen.” I love Lost and Inception but being puzzled out by the ending of Inception has been the least of my worries. After all, dreams do not really make sense! So, I say, just enjoy the ride through this form of entertainment.
By watching Inception, I was able to hit two birds with one stone. I was blown away by the movie in itself and it’s a bonus that “somehow”, it has the same ideas with Lost. What I highly regret now is that I did not watch the movie in 2D! It would have been a better experience. Nonetheless, I plan to go back to the movie house to watch this movie again. Indeed, I can say that Nolan has redefined the meaning of movies. This movie has made me go back and love the cinemas!
I even took pictures with the setting of Inception!
