Inception review

It's 2 AM and I just got home from seeing Inception. It's a beautiful mindfuck!!! I can't even describe it. Even if I were to tell you what the movie is about and attempt to delve into the twists and turns, I'd do you a disfavor.

This movie is to be seen. I almost don't want to see it again because I just want to sit back and process it. Every actor was spot on and does a magnificent job. Nolan, the director, shows that he can truly craft a movie. So many times I was afraid that the movie was going to fall apart onto it's self but it never did. Nolan did a great job of keeping a multi-level movie together. This could have easily been a disaster. But throughout the movie it just kept building into a beautiful crescendo.

It was amazing to see a packed house be played like puddy in a director's hand. All the way until the last scene Nolan had an entire theater on the edge of their collective seats. When the movie ended, the entire crowd had the same verbal reaction. It is a spectical and I urge all to go see it in a movie theater to enjoy it. It was so good, that the 2 1/2 - 3 hour movie had everyone stunned. Don't worry about others making noises. Everyone will be too busy getting their mind blown that, except for a few fully intentional laughs, you could hear a pin drop.

This was a great movie. I won't say anything more than to just see it. Once you have, and have given some time to think about it, then we can talk.
