Inception is a movie everyone in the world has to watch completely, from start to finish, in the best and most comfortable way possible, at least once in their life. Everyone.

An intense thriller with a unique idea done in a way we've never seen before on screen.

The mere concept of this film is done and portrayed to perfection by Christopher Nolan. In Nolan's own words, the best way to enjoy this movie isn't to understand it but to feel it.

The concept can be confusing, but if you completely focus when watching then I don't think it should be too confusing. Everything made perfect sense to me while watching.

The cinematography in this is incredible. The action is simple but some of the most edge of your seat stuff you'll ever find.

The visuals are amazing, I do not know how Nolan managed to film and even think of some of the things shown here. Nolan captures the notion of dreams so well.

The score by Hans Zimmer is as always of course, outstanding. It's what allows to connect all these crazy and different dreams so well.

The performances were all great, of course the main highlight is Leonardo DiCaprio, he carries the film. But everyone else was great. Two other surprisingly great showing was Cillian Murphy, something about him just makes you so invested and interested in his character. The other is Marion Cotillard, she steals the scene and owns it every time she's in one.

The way this movie is paced and designed is phenomenal, you almost never get a break while watching it. The only time it ever slows down is when the movie ends, and that's done intentionally, we feel the exact same way the characters did in that moment, the experience everyone gets after waking up from a crazy dream.

Overall, one of the best movie experiences I've ever had. Every moment of this film was just so interesting, so well directed and breathtaking.
