Inception Movie review

One of the movies that impressed me a lot was "Inception" written, produced and directed by Christopher Nolan, starring Leonardo DiCarprio. It's a science fiction, which happens to be one of my favourite genre of movies.

The movie was about mind games, or to be more specific, mind wars which the characters in the movie discovered the method to create a warfare in human minds while the host of the minds were sleeping. Dominic (Leonardo) and his partner Arthur (Joseph Gordon-Levitt) were one of the elite teams in the mind wars business. They were specialized in extracting information (often classified information) from renowned or rather important people's minds.

In one of the cases that they got into, they were forced to perform "Inception" which involving planting a total new and foreign idea in a person's head. That was another level of mind wars business and this time they brought in more people to enhance the team.

The whole story unfolded in a very intriguing manner that the moment I entered cinema until the moment I left the cinema, I was in a very tense and alert mood as the storyline of the movie was all the time on the climax. I really wish to watch it again, and hearing there is Inception on DVD pleases my heart. Let's get them now!

Food for thought
The storyline of the movie prompted me to think about one thing that happens in our daily lives. A lot of times, we tend to choose the "reality" that we want and trick ourselves in believing things that we choose to believe. For example when things are too troublesome or painful, we tend to choose to force ourselves to believe that they aren't there or they never happened.

Running away from the reality is not the way we should deal with things. In fact, even we run away, the problems will still be there and the real reality is not going to go away. Therefore, face them and confront them!

Have a nice day people. :)
