INCEPTION Christopher Nolan (The new Genius Hollywood with his "Dark Night" in particular) is in theaters in France since Wednesday, the wait was long for me, but was pleased to meet you.
The wait for a movie I watched and waited for months scrutinizing every news, statements and images that could go anywhere, like this sentence Nolan:
"Nowadays movies evolves, james cameron has pushed the visual interactivity with 3D, me with my goal "inception" and I hope to achieve and create interactivity with the new scenario
Then came the strip teasers and other Announce that this is a compendium
Then came the release in the U.S. on July 6, with good marketing around like this huge sign erected on buildings:
Then the first reviews came in the hex and everything seemed to confirm what many felt: INCEPTION is still a masterpiece of Nolan.
mixing between Matrix James Bond and other inspirations, critics will almost all in the same direction:
"At the heart of a summer reign reboots, remakes and sequels, Inception is by far the idea of The most original film in ages "notes Kirk Honeycutt"
"Nev Pierce Empire Online agrees" that there are issues to explore (the film will generate more than theories that the assassination JFK) ", but adds," we might as well sit back and simply enjoy the show. And what a show! "Moreover, according to Mr Beaks (Aintitcoolnews)," the most exciting seeing Nolan is at its peak as a visual artist. "
" Kirk Honeycutt appreciates it Nolan maintain "minimum side effects for emphasis as much as possible the real stunts." According to JoBlo Mike Sampson, it "has remained in a field familiar to him (taut, intelligent thrillers) but have expanded this field exponentially.
"According Mr Beaks, "he joined Coppola, Lean and other filmmakers, not so many that can handle a canvas with the respect it deserves - but with the sharp brilliance of a chess player who has twelve strokes of advance. " Nev Pierce loose another great name: "It will review the film to see if the comparison is justified, but it looks like Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of the great science fiction author William Gibson-except that Nolan loves people more than the Copyright 2001. "
"The game Dicaprio is a depth that will compete with his work on Shutter Island," said Nev bore. "This is not the kind of performance rewards that an Oscar-step transformation of ostentation or superficial, but my God it's brilliant. "" The actor is in both restraint and intense "Honeycutt enthuses."
"Mr Banks said, lyrical:" The pure cinema at its best when we give the impression to dream with eyes wide open. The movie could not be more pure qu'Inception. "Justin Chang is also on a cloud:" If movies are dreams shared, while Christopher Nolan is certainly one of the most creative dreamers in Hollywood. "In summary, for now: INCEPTION, not disappointment. "
Suffice to say that all this makes you want.
Then finally comes out in France, I can see for myself and make my own idea for the film.
First pitch:
Dom Cobb is a confirmed thief, the best in the perilous art of extraction. The extraction is to take the precious secrets of a person buried in the depths of the unconscious as she dreams and the mind is most vulnerable. The middle of industrial espionage Cobb covets for his talents. Dom Cobb becomes a fugitive on the planet. Because of this, he loses his greatest love. A final mission could allow him to regain his former life. Instead of stealing an idea, Cobb and his team will have to implement one in the spirit of a person (the inception). If successful, this could be the perfect crime. But no strategy has been preparing the team to a dangerous enemy who seems always one step ahead. An enemy that Cobb could only see it coming. This summer, your mind is the scene of the crime.
Well after nearly 2:30 show, one word came to my mind while I sneaked towards the exit: "Wonderful, I'll see him again in a few days"
Note the final scene made a strong impression and what I read on the net, not only in my room.
The entire room is held in suspense by the last shot of the movie, then suddenly the generic.
And dozens of people who exclaims "oh the con", "oh the fuck", "ahh fuck" to express the turn of genius by Nolan that this scene would leave the public his own interpretation, sort of twist M Night Shyamalan has increasingly petty.
Then once past the exclamations, the entire audience stood to applaud for 2:30 am pleased that Nolan has given us, thank you Mr. Nolan! As
Nev Pierce had predicted critical U.S. cinema's greatest film magazine U.S. "empire" , once the film seen it raise a lot of theory, much like Matrix (something I love: an absolute fan of the Matrix trilogy, I spent months and bought books to understand 100%, absolutely nothing escapes me)
Well INCEPTION law also has its share of theory that has started to arrive around the net.
So for those who have not seen the movie, do not read the following:
Already image representing the different "levels" of the film through the dreams that were explored during 2:30 :
Indeed in the film, the characters through a sedative and a briefcase containing a Hi-Tech machine, dips their victims and themselves in sleep monitored, so s' in his dream and bring him steal secret, this is "extraction" .
"The inception" is to achieve the same process has introduced an idea to the person concerned, that once awakened will practice in real life.
But in the film, the actors followed suit dreams into each other, using the machine in a dream to go levels deeper:
total there are 4 levels.
Level 1: The city - with the chemist who led the Van Yusuf
Level 2: Hotel - Arthur (and the scene of weightlessness)
Level 3: The hospital - the forger Eames
Level 4: Limbo - Cobb extractor (or the "live" woman or fall of Cobb and Saito)
The blades are actually places where attérit dreamers who go too far, or who die in an extraction / inception "made with sedatives more powerful than usual. (To obtain the inception, it will have to use a sedative different than normal, or usual with a sedative "normal" for a simple extraction, just for example the body of the dreamer plunge into the water or send him a discharge or die in the dream to get out).
With the sedative used for the inception, out of the dream must earn more "shock" to get out, and if you die in dreams we fall into limbo. But
Limbo is also a place where each person can build his own world, it's what will Cobb and his wife.
Besides the film, Cobb (Di Caprio) and his wife (Marion Cotillard), will go all in limbo and spend 50years (50years in a dream is well obviously not in a life 50 years) and build a universe, and decide to escape by committing suicide on a rail of a train together.
But once back, his wife thinks that real life is not reality, and his wife will do everything to convince Cobb the same thing. Alas
his wife be thinking in a dream and wanting to join the world she believes to be reality (limbo) committed suicide by jumping out the window before the eyes of Cobb, while fighters have orchestrated the arrest of Cobb future for Cobb has grown with her jump into the void.
Cobb alone, access to the U.S. and has his child and is forbidden in the film, a powerful leader of a multi-national early victim extraction, involves Cobb (DiCaprio) and his band to make an "inception" in the head of its direct competitor in business.
Basically they target the son of an old business man about to die and whose son goes back through the legacy of the queens of his companies, they want him to have the desire ( through the inception) to dismantle each one has a company of which he has inherited.
For a simple "pull" you simply need to go to level -1 of the subconscious of the target.
For the "inception" the task is much more difficult, the team will go very depth (level -3) and face projections (sort of "safety officer" as in Matrix target) but also the fact that often the big businessmen have received special training against penetration by others their subconscious.
Cobb and his gang will have to imagine a very complex strategy to succeed their coup.
Only this is not only the story of the film, besides that there is the personal story of Cobb (DiCaprio), who in the past is the only one to have played and managed an "inception" on his own woman (Marion Cotillard), but experience has turned the disaster And each time he operates in a "pull" or "inception" his ex-wife died just parasitize its fields of action.
And Nolan through his script will try to surprise the viewer, whether to unseal the scenes that have seen his reality or dreams are, you see where I am coming:)
Like Matrix, semblance to the simulation.
Regarding the famous final scene, when Cobb agrees to make it work, "the inception" of the heir, because that, if successful, it will also be able to leave the USA and review its children as a result of the death of his wife (Marion Cotillard) mother and child, she had arranged for it to be accused of murder (the film will explain why she did that) and the Cobb had to be forced to leave the USA.
So in the end, we see Cobb (DiCaprio) who happened to cross the U.S. border without problem (or before he was arrested dessuite) and return to her children.
Then the famous plane that casts doubt: the spinning top!
In fact every person who practices the "extraction" or "inception" in short, anyone who uses the machine to explore the dreams of others, needs to have its totem a personal object metal which is used to determine if it is in reality or not.
And throughout the film, we often see Cobb rotate "his" router, which after a while stop spinning and falls on the normal side.
Well you guessed it, but in the end, after have seen Cobb overjoyed to see her children again, the camera moves to the router that Cobb had launched before seeing his children, and the top turns again and again and ... end credits! Leaving the viewer
doubt:
- The top eventually fall and thus successful Cobb's "inception" and is indeed in real life.
- The router continues to run constantly, and thus throughout the movie we saw was a dream, Cobb is still in the thick of it.
For my part, and is the most prevalent theory, Cobb finds his children indeed in real life and the router will eventually fall.
But anyway this is not the top which shoed us say this, but particular attention to the film and say things along the film.
already be aware that during the movie, children are seen on several occasions, but Cobb says he can never again had their faces.
On the final scene we see Cobb reviewed the faces of his children, But children are not identical, they are older.
Besides the actress who plays Phillipa (Cobb's daughter) was only 3 years (Claire Gear), while that which is at the end of the film (Taylor Gear ... his sister!) Are 5.
However it is already very difficult to perceive the difference.
The most important point is the famous router, the "so-called" Totem Cobb. In the film
Cobb said the girl was responsible for designing the plan and the dream is a novice in the use of the machine, it needs a totem and its utility: namely, after a user has is whether the in a dream or reality. But Cobb said
although the totem object belongs to one person, otherwise, it does NOT work! And just in the film we learn that the router was the totem of his wife. So Nolan
deceives us by showing us always Cobb using this router.
But in this case, what is the totem of Cobb? And well it was still not miss it, it is her engagement ring! When
Cobb is in the dreams he carries in his left hand, and Nolan still shows many plan to show prominently.
And in reality it is similar, there are several plans showing either Cobb put his ring, or resume. So Nolan
trap everyone with the router, it basically practiced a "inception" throughout the public who believes that the router is the totem of Cobb:)
But as I said, there are always different theory, a few are gathered here:
Finally, it was long I expected a movie that makes me want to think about the different interpretations could do as Matrix, and it is finally, a big thanks to Christopher Nolan, who finished project is that it had started more than 10 years.
