It is a challenging movie to describe, yet it brilliantly takes a simple concept and through a meticulously woven story introduces you to a world that is fantastically imagined. The movie is essentially about dreams and dreaming, and how they can have a profound influence on who we are the decisions we make.
Christopher Nolan (writer and director) makes this story entirely plausible through his incredible attention to every minute detail. The cast is also sensational, lending themselves nicely to the depth of the characters they portray. Highly imaginative (with movies these days I find that is an accomplishment of its own), and therefore grippingly entertaining. I have watched it three times now, to get a full grasp on some of the details one might miss as you are engrossed in following the plot the first run through. Each time I find myself more drawn into it, as I am continually impressed with how gifted a storyteller he is! I love unique stories, and here this movie achieves its mark magnificently.
The good news is, it is out on video so you can easily rent it for your viewing enjoyment right now!
Beware, it is close to 2.5 hours long.
You won't regret it!
