Inception (2010)Inception is one of the defining films of the 21st century, released in 2010 and written and directed by Christopher Nolan. Leonardo DiCaprio stars as Dom Cobb, a skilled thief who specialises in extracting secrets from within people's dreams. Offered a chance to have his criminal record erased, Cobb assembles a team to perform inception — planting an idea in a target's subconscious rather than stealing one. The film operates across multiple layers of dreamed reality, building to a climax of extraordinary complexity and emotional power. A worldwide box office phenomenon grossing over $836 million, it won four Academy Awards including Best Cinematography and Best Visual Effects, and features one of the great film scores in Hans Zimmer's thunderous, brass-driven soundtrack. Looks and sounds spectacular on Blu-ray.Highlights The zero-gravity corridor fight — One of the most technically audacious sequences in modern cinema; Joseph Gordon-Levitt's rotating hallway fight was shot practically and remains jaw-dropping on a big screen. Hans Zimmer's score — The slowed-down Édith Piaf sample that underpins the soundtrack is a stroke of genius; the BRAAAM brass hits became one of the most imitated sounds in Hollywood trailer history. Leonardo DiCaprio's performance — Intense, emotionally layered and completely committed; Cobb's grief over his wife Mal (Marion Cotillard) gives the film its human core and elevates it well above standard blockbuster fare. The Penrose staircase and folding city sequences — Nolan and cinematographer Wally Pfister's visual imagination is at its peak here; the Paris dream sequence remains one of the most visually inventive in mainstream cinema. The ending — The spinning top; one of cinema's great final shots, deliberately ambiguous and endlessly debated; the perfect conclusion to a film that rewards repeated viewing.
