RATING: * * * *

Christopher Nolan only keeps adding to the brilliance and craft we associate with him. If you thought Memento really tickled your grey cells and made you watch it with all your concentration, Inception will only take you a step ahead. The movie will offer a layer of enigmatic dreams and entries into the subconscious mind building a conundrum of sorts which you need to be completely glued into inorder to understand and be part of.

Inception almost exercises your brain muscles to fatigue. And as Nolan plays with your brain and the brains of his characters, he very subtly induces an element of suspense and intrigue that will keep you at the edge of your seats till the very end. Inception will find two kinds of audience. One that fathoms Nolan's complex brainwave and keeps dissecting it long after the film is over and another that doesn't understand the film at all and keeps questioning it. Either ways, both the kind of viewers will end up feeling a formidable sense of appreciation for this genius filmmaker.

Leonardo Di Caprio plays Cobb, a man who has the ability to extract information out of people's subconscious mind by sharing their dreams. On one such occasion he built a complex labyrinthine around his wife and himself that led to her death for which he is being held responsible. Desperate to return to his children, he takes up an assignment when a wealthy power giant makes him an offer that will take him back to a life of normalcy with his children.

Leonardo Di Caprio and Ellen Page deliver truly praiseworthy performances. Overall, the film is one hell of a brain teaser and it will go down very well with audience that like their films, a little thought provoking. Besides of course, it will yet again establish Christopher Nolan as a master craftsman whose ingenious work is one to reckon with.
