Movie Mondays: Inception

Well this isn't exactly Monday but I didn't have access to this site til now so let's pretend its Monday, k?


Inception: the birth of an idea.
A single idea from the human mind can build cities. An idea can transform the world and rewrite all the rules. Which is why I have to steal it.
-Cobb
Everyone knows that we only use a fraction of our brains to function in day to day life but what do we do with the rest of that brain power? Well, according to the new movie Inception, in our dreams we have the power to create anything and to access secrets in the deepest recesses of our subconscious.
In a way, the dreams are the final (final, final) frontier and Mr. Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) is out to be a good white explorer and exploit it. ;)


Now based on the commercials and the musings of a cynical mind, the most I hoped for was a 'B' action thriller. But surprisingly Inception delivers a very entertaining and captivating 2.5hr ride.

There's even a scene reminiscent of the infamous Fred Astaire ceiling dance in A Royal Wedding.
Do you see it? huh? huh?
Inception: Hit or Miss?
HIT

Ohhh, I can't wait to go see this now that I am home from camp!

And yes, I do see the dance on the ceiling scene! Have you seen Royal Wedding, the movie that scene is from?

I wish Inception was out in Spain! They dub everything here, so it won't be out for months. I may be stuck with "Crepusculo" :)
