Arguably Mr. Nolan's best film, Inception succeeds in engaging its audience, taking them for a thought provoking and emotional ride, and daring them to leave for a bathroom break. During a trend in film to leave audiences consuming spectacle (hi Avatar), Inception is a well needed reminder that films should leave the audience exhausted when the credits role. Far from perfect, the film is well worth the price of admission (twice for any cinephile). If anything less, Joseph Gordon-Levitt is elevated to cool (no joke; he is); which is a mind blowing accomplishment unto itself.
