Inception (2010)


This is a movie the trailers could not do justice.  The idea so grand and deep and original that it could never have been done without the technology we have.  The acting so stunning you never question the idea they are feeding you and that, after all, is the key ingredient.
        Leonardo DiCaprio plays Cobb, a thief who does his work by entering a shared dream with his victims and getting them to tell him their secrets by making the dream so real it fools their own memories.  But, this time, the secret is an idea and Cobb's job is to plant it so deeply within the subconscious of Robert Fischer (Cillian Murphy) that he believes it to be his own.  In the meantime, Cobb is keeping his own secrets and his widow, Mal (Marion Cotillard) buried in his dreams.  Trouble is, her dark side keeps coming out to play inside the dreams while he is working. 
       You won't want to turn your eyes away from the intelligent action or the raw emotion of this film.  Brilliant.
