During a year of terrible remakes and unoriginal plot lines - Chris Nolan has saved the summer. One of the most creative films ever made, Nolan and the crew of INCEPTION not only fully grasp our attention for 2 1/2 hours, but even as the credits roll, we go back home wtih our families and wake up the next morning, we still find ourselves marveling over his masterpiece.
Visually the film is almost flawless. The wildcard for INCEPTION is it's score by Hans Zimmer. The final track by Zimmer, "Time", is so full of emotion that it MAKES the ending so brilliant. Come Oscar time, Zimmer, Nolan and his crew will be in the running for some pretty nice hardware.
Though long at 2 1/2 hours, you can't help but be drawn to the edge of your seat until the screen goes black. INCEPTION is pitch perfect and easily this year's best.
