Inception,
This is a con artist movie, except con artists of a different nature.
These con artists steals ideas and information via dreams. However, in
this case, the con is of a different nature. The con is to place an
idea in another person’s brain, but to have the idea be the other
person’s.
Sounds
complicated, and to be honest this movie is very confusing. You have
two dreamers, one creating the world, and the other doing the con inside
that environment. The con is Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio) and the one who
creates the worlds is Ariadne (Ellen Page). The con is made more
difficult because of history, Cobb lost his wife (Marion Cotillard) deep
inside a dream, and she still haunts his dreams. Other members of the
con team are Arthur (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), Eames (Tom Hardy), Saito
(Ken Watanabe) who has hired Cobb to pull off the con, Yusuf (Dileep
Rao) and Browning (Tom Berenger). The mark is Robert Fischer (Cillian
Murphy).
Talking
about dreams can leave anyone confused, and in this case you are
talking about dreams inside of dreams, inside of dreams and so on. It
can be come confusing. In each level, things go faster. As a result,
in each deeper level there is more time to react to what is happening in
the lower levels. This is important, because “kicks” need to be timed
to take place in all the worlds at the same time so you can wake up.
This
work is harder, because people programs defenses into their
subconscious—which come out in the form of people defending and
shooting. Of course if you kill them, they don’t really die, but it is
all confusing in the end with lots of action.
