Hard to believe it's already been 10 years since "Inception" has come out. How has it held up for you?
At least for me, it's still an enjoyable headtrip of a movie. It may not be for everyone, but I think it's still pretty good. It would probably be in my Top 3 Chris Nolan films.
Maltin Movie Guide Review:
Inception (2010) - 2.5 out of 4 stars
"DiCaprio and his team are masters of a form of corporate spying; entering a selected target's dream state and extracting information, for which competitors pay huge sums. Underestimating the complexities of the tool, DiCaprio mishandled it to the point of severely rupturing his personal life, forcing him to flee the U.S. Now, at a psychological impasse, he's offered a challenging job he can't refuse by corporate giant Watanabe. But this means facing his demons by virtually retracing the same nightmarish territory that nearly destroyed him. Ambitious, exceedingly well-crafted film, written by Nolan, works too hard to show off its cleverness and intricacy and even betrays its own ground rules when it suits the filmmaker. Oscar Winner for Cinematography (Wally Pfister), Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, and Visual Effects."
