christopher nolans film 'inception' is indeed a masterpiece, not just of film making but story telling, the plot is complex rich and layered as a team of specialists attempt to plant an idea in an industrialists mind while he is dreaming. they use an architect to structure the landscape of the dream, but because the idea needs to be extremely subliminal they need to have the dreamer dream within the dream three layers down, each layer spawning more complex mechanisms and defences than the other, all the while the actual combatant team plus the victim are in a deep sleep.
the reality of dreams is exquisitely explored here, many themes the viewer can relate to, as we navigate the dream parameters.
it's an excellent script, a fascinating story made complex by the team leaders own dream trauma and the awful philosophical question we all ask ourselves, 'is this real?'
brilliant film.
