Inception

Every once in a while, there comes a sci-fi film with a premise so mind-blowing, you instantly feel compelled to watch it. The Terminator, Jurassic Park and The Matrix are a few that come to mind, and while Inception definitely shares a shred of DNA with the Wachowski siblings’ cyberpunk thriller, Christopher Nolan’s vision and execution ensure it’s a modern classic in its own right. A heist movie taking place in a dream reality, it packs a multinational cast headed by Leonardo diCaprio and marries breathtaking action sequences with complex notions on the way we perceive reality. A bit of a head trip then, but definitely worth the ride.


5/5
