Inception

A man in a suit with a gun in his right hand is flanked by five other individuals in the middle of a street which, behind them, is folded upwards. Leonardo DiCaprio's name and those of other cast members are shown above the words "Your Mind Is the Scene of the Crime". The title of the film "INCEPTION", film credits, and theatrical and IMAX release dates are shown at the bottom. 
Inception

The 2010 film season was a good one bringing horror films(Winter's Bone, Black Swan), biopoics(The King's Speech, The Social Network), but to me one film stood out from the rest. Inception, the sci-fi thriller, brought a new eye to science fiction. It was a Christopher Nolan film starring a wonderful cast: Leonardo Dicaprio(Titanic, The Aviator), Ken Watanabe(Batman Begins), Joseph Gordon Levitt(Looper), Ellen Page(Juno), Marion Cortiland(The Dark Knight Rises), Tom Hardy(This Means War, The Dark Knight Rises) and Cillian Murphy(Batman Begins). The film is based on dreams and the power they hold. Its an amazing film, with a wonderful storyline. Its a very confusing film is you don't pay attention, and if you do it is still hard to understand in ways. The music is quite amazing as Hans Zimmer(composer) and Christopher Nolan(director) collaborate once again. It was nominated for Best Picture in 2010 losing to The King's Speech. Altogether I give it a 8/10.
