I haven’t seen a movie like this in a long time. Mostly because there was a stretch of time I would only see chick flicks and comedies (Date Night, Get Him to the Greek) so I didn’t have to think too hard. But also because I’ve been disillusioned by Hollywood lately, and its inability to make a movie that doesn’t completely suck. But we’ve been on an up-trend recently at the theaters (Salt, The Kids Are Alright) and Inception is, without a doubt, the front-runner.
The film begins ominously, with Leonardo DiCaprio’s body washed ashore on some beach, most likely in Asia. He’s brought to see a very old man (hopefully they’re not in Japan, otherwise he would be missing), and the old man asks if Leo, all sunburnt and bleary-eyed, is there to kill him.
