Inception

Technology exists that can allow specially trained agents to enter peoples minds through their dreams to extract information or to do that which can change peoples lives and the world; plant an idea in the mind which they believe is their own.

This is a very original idea. Christopher Nolan is proving over and over again he's one of the best directors around (Memento, The Prestige, Batman Begins, The Dark Knight). It feels a little Matrix-esque as in they can enter a world that only exists in their minds. The story can be quite complex at times, maybe a little too much at some points. But it's loads of fun and keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time. Also some very good performances by the cast, especially DiCaprio.

On a side note the theater I saw this in was displaying some new theater technology, or gimmicks; D-Box, which has 30 seats in the center of the theater which move, bump, and vibrate with the sound effects, images and music. I didn't get one of those seats since they were sold out and cost double the amount of a normal seat. Seems like it might be a tad distracting for almost 3 hours, we'll see if this catches on like 3D is.

***1/2 out of 4 - Definitely see it
